Network Selection

When selecting networks for transactions:

  1. Native Currencies: Use the main network (e.g., BTC for Bitcoin)
  2. Tokens: Choose the appropriate network (e.g., ETH for ERC-20 tokens, BSC for BEP-20 tokens)
  3. Cross-Chain: Some tokens may be available on multiple networks

Error Responses

404 Not Found

Returned when the specified network name doesn't exist.

Example:

{
"detail": "Not found"
}

Integration Notes

Network vs Currency

  • Network: The blockchain infrastructure (e.g., "ETH", "BSC")
  • Native Currency: The currency used for fees on that network (e.g., "ETH", "BNB")
  • Tokens: Additional currencies that run on the network (e.g., USDT on ETH network)

Fee Considerations

When using different networks:

  • Each network has its own fee structure
  • Native currency is typically used for transaction fees
  • Network congestion affects fee costs and confirmation times

Next Steps

  • Currencies - Learn about currencies available on each network
  • Orders - Create orders specifying network requirements
  • Rates - Get current exchange rates for network pairs
