ChatGPT4 helped me solve it like this (I'm still don't understand what was the issue - I tried to change app.post to app.get) CartModal.tsx
const convertUSDToETHQuery = userCartStore.products
.filter((product: IProduct) => product.on_stock > 0)
.map((product: IProduct) => ({
price: product.price,
quantity: product.quantity
}))
.map(item => `amount=${encodeURIComponent(item.price * item.quantity)}`)
.join('&');



useEffect(() => {
const fetchPriceConversion = async () => {
try {
const response = await axios.get(
`${baseBackendURL}/coinmarketcap?${convertUSDToETHQuery}&symbol=USD&convert=ETH`
);
console.log(140,'response -', response);
setETHPrice(response.data.data[0].quote.ETH.price)
} catch (error) {
console.log('Error -', error);
}
};

fetchPriceConversion();
}, []);
