CryptoExchange.Net
CryptoExchange.Net is a base library which is used to implement different cryptocurrency (exchange) API's. It provides a standardized way of implementing different API's, which results in a very similar experience for users of the API implementations. Note that the CryptoExchange.Net package itself can not be used directly for accessing API's. Either install a client library from the list below or use CryptoClients.Net which includes access to all exchange API's.
For more information on what CryptoExchange.Net and it's client libraries offers see the Documentation.
For AI Coding Assistants
This library and the entire CryptoExchange.Net ecosystem provide first-class support for AI coding assistants. The relevant skill files are in this repository:
- Agents:
AGENTS.md(auto-detected at repo root) - Cursor:
.cursor/rules/cryptoexchange-net.mdc - GitHub Copilot:
.github/copilot-instructions.md - Other tools (Windsurf, Codex, Continue, Aider, etc.):
llms.txtat repo root - Compilable examples:
Examples/ai-friendly/
For single-exchange code, see also the AI files in each exchange's repository (Binance.Net, Bybit.Net, OKX.Net, ...) — they cover exchange-specific patterns.
See cryptoexchange-skills-hub for installable skills.
Quick prompt to verify your assistant is using these:
"Show me how to fetch BTC/USDT spot tickers from Binance and OKX concurrently in C# using the SharedApis pattern."
The expected output should use .SharedClient properties, SharedSymbol, ISpotTickerRestClient, and Task.WhenAll.
CryptoExchange.Net Ecosystem
Full list of all libraries part of the CryptoExchange.Net ecosystem. Consider using a referral link to support development, as well as potentially get some trading fee discount!
Any of these can be installed independently or install CryptoClients.Net which includes all exchange API's.
Full demo application
A full demo application is available using the CryptoClients.Net library:

Update notes from version 11.x to 12.x for client implementations
Result types:
- (Web)CallResult types are replaced by HttpResult, WebSocketResult and QueryResult
- Use (Http/WebSocket/Query)Result.Ok(..) and .Fail(..) for creation
- Result objects no longer override implicit conversion to bool, use Success property instead
- CallResult.SuccessResult has been replaced with CallResult.Ok()
Parameters & serialization:
- ParameterCollection type is replaced by Parameters, most AddXX() methods can be replaced by Add()
- Parameter serialization behavior can be controlled in the Add method as third parameter, or in the ParameterSerializationSettings
- ArraySerialization has been move into the new Parameters object
- RestRequestConfiguration in AuthenticationProvider.ProcessRequest now contains the full RequestDefinition instead of copied fields. This changes for example
request.Authenticatedtorequest.RequestDefinition.Authenticated
WebSocket routing:
- MessageRouting has been split into event and query routing; use CreateForEvent for subscriptions and CreateForQuery for queries.
- Queries returning a mapped type can specify a second type parameter in CreateForQuery for the result type
- MessageRouter.CreateWithoutHandler has been replaced with CreateVoid
Shared APIs:
- Option defintions now always require the exchange name as first parameter
- Every request/subscription now has a dedicated options type
- ExchangeSymbolCache now requires EnvironmentName as parameter for operations
- Validation has been unified via
SharedClient.[Request]Options.ValidateRequest(request, this); - Validation now includes auth check and klines support internally, no need for explicit checks
- AsExchangeResult/ExchangeWebResult has been removed, use normal HttpResults instead
- ExchangeResult has been replaced by ExchangeCallResult
- TradingMode has been removed from the response model, only maintained on models where it makes sense
- IListenKey support has been removed, listen keys should be managed internally with TokenManager
Various:
- ApiClients now require an exchange name in the constructor
- ApiClients now required ILoggerFactory parameter instead of ILogger instance
- RestApiClient SendAsync without type parameter removed, use SendAsync<Unit> instead
- Address parameter removed from SendAsync RestApiClient, should be specified on the request definition instead
- SymbolOrderBook DoResyncAsync now returns CallResult instead of CallResult<bool> which was redundant
- PlatformInfo now required support environment names in the constructor
