As mentioned in other answer, there is CORS issue. So you can try with proxyURL from client side as below,

$(document).ready(function() {

var url = 'https://api.binance./api/v1/ticker/price?symbol=LTCBTC';

const proxyURL = "https://cors-anywhere.herokuapp./";
$.getJSON(proxyURL + url, function(playerData) {
  console.log(playerData);
});
});

<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare./ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js"></script>

Hope it helps.

The request to https://api.binance./api/v1/ticker/price?symbol=LTCBTC provides json data this uses CORS policy

{"symbol":"LTCBTC","price":"0.01520100"}

JSONP would look like

myCallback({"symbol":"LTCBTC","price":"0.01520100"})

This looks like and works like a Javascript / PHP function.

The URL for a jsonp includes a callback in the URL ... https://api.binance./api/v1/ticker/price?symbol=LTCBTC&callback=myCallback

But is not supported on this site

{"code":-1101,"msg":"Too many parameters; expected '1' and received '2'."}

It might be openable with php on your site? I can not test from the system I'm on I don't have socket transport "ssl" setup on my tablet to test.

Yes it works from a PHP wrapper.

myJSONP(<?php echo file_get_contents('https://api.binance./api/v1/ticker/price?symbol=LTCBTC');?>);

If you check on console after change dataType: 'jsonp' to dataType: 'json', you will get the following as your code and their script not on same host and they need to enable Access-Control-Allow-Origin to access from other domain. You may use cur if you use php.

Cross-Origin Request Blocked: The Same Origin Policy disallows reading the remote resource at https://api.binance./api/v1/ticker/price?symbol=LTCBTC. (Reason: CORS header 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' missing).

While performing the request from your browser or postman or fiddler you will get the result

But while performing a request from the application you will be failed with error message

Access to XMLHttpRequest at 'https://api.binance./api/v1/ticker/price?symbol=LTCBTC' from origin 'http://127.0.0.1:5500' has been blocked by CORS policy: No 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' header is present on the requested resource.

The issue has to be fixed from your server side end.
