Delete a part of a code with ruby with a variable - ruby-on-rails

Question

I have this code
def index
require 'net/http'
require 'json'
#url = 'https://pro-api.coinmarketcap.com/v1/cryptocurrency/listings/latest?start=1&limit=100&CMC_PRO_API_KEY=mykey'
#uri = URI(#url)
#response = Net::HTTP.get(#uri)
#coins = JSON.parse(#response)
#my_coins = ["BTC", "XRP", "ADA", "ETH", "USDT"]
end
The url brings
{"status"=>{"timestamp"=>"2021-02-16T03:55:40.727Z", "error_code"=>0, "error_message"=>nil, "elapsed"=>21, "credit_count"=>1, "notice"=>nil, "total_count"=>4078}, "data"=>[{"id"=>1, "name"=>"
Using that variable (#coins) how could I give the instruction to delete everythin until ' "data"=>'?

def index
require 'net/http'
require 'json'
#url = 'https://pro-api.coinmarketcap.com/v1/cryptocurrency/listings/latest?start=1&limit=100&CMC_PRO_API_KEY=mykey'
#uri = URI(#url)
#response = Net::HTTP.get(#uri)
#coins = get_coins(#response)
#my_coins = ["BTC", "XRP", "ADA", "ETH", "USDT"]
end
def get_coins(response)
coins = JSON.parse(response)
coins.slice('data')
end
it will give you only 'data' part. because 'data' is a key of hash same as 'status'
the #coins variable will remain the same, but the output is a new variable which is result from slice operation
you can also delete using delete operation then #coins will change to remaining key
#coins.delete('status')
puts #coins #{"data"=>[{"id"=>1, "name"=>"somename"}]

#coins = JSON.parse(response)
#coins.delete('status')
