The Currencies API page is a tool used to review information about the Wallets for each coin/token on Bittrex Global. You can find a lot of useful information here, but it can be difficult to navigate because of the way it is presented.
There are two things to remember when reading the API page:
- each line of the API is separated by curly brackets:
- each header is separated by a comma
Here is an example of a single line in our API with the headers marked in blue, followed by a table explaining what they mean:
API Header | What it means |
---|---|
symbol | The coin/token’s ticker name (e.g. BTC) |
name | The coin/token’s complete name (e.g. Bitcoin) |
coinType | The type of coin/token (e.g. Bitcoin, Bitcoin16, Lisk, ETH, ETH_Contract, etc.) |
status | Status of the wallet (e.g. online vs. offline) |
minConfirmations | The minimum number of confirmations required on the blockchain to credit a deposit |
notice | Any current informational notices related to the wallet (e.g. Wallet Maintenance, or may be blank, but they do not mean the wallet is offline) |
txFee | The transaction fee for withdrawing the coin/token |
logoUrl | URL for the coin/token’s logo |
prohibitedIn | If the coin is not available to US users, this will be marked as [US] |
baseAddress | The base address for the wallet on Bittrex Global, which is commonly used for memo coins like XLM and XRP |
associatedTermsOfService | Any Terms of Service that must be accepted in order to deposit the coin/token |
