non-unique symbols issue

[vincentweiss96]

This is a(n):

• New feature
• Update to an existing feature
• Error
• Proposal to the Repository

Details:

When using "get_coin_id(coin_code)" from utils with the symbol CTK:

https://web-api.coinmarketcap.com/v1/cryptocurrency/map?symbol=CTK

The api returns a json including 2 coins, since the CTK symbol is used for two different coins.
The function returns: "json_data["data"][0]["slug"]" , so only the first coin is processed. But shoul only be a minor problem since in most cases the coin symbol should be unique.

Api output below.
Kind regards
Vincent
