    What is Bittrex?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    Bittrex is an online cryptocurrency exchange platform that allows its users to trade over 700 trading pairs. As one of the oldest US-based exchanges, Bittrex is known for its excellent safety practices and transaction speed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

    Is Bittrex API free?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    Creating a Bittrex account and using the Bittrex API is completely free, but when it comes to trading there are fees. The fees depend on the pair you’re trading and your monthly trading volume.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    The monthly trading volume fees follow a maker-taker fee schema. This basically means that the more you trade, the lower do the fees get. The picture below illustrates the fee method.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Maker orders are the ones that create liquidity on a market when being entered in an order book. This means that they aren’t filled upon placement, but they wait for a future order that matches it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    On the other hand, the taker orders take the liquidity from the market. They execute instantly by matching against another order that is already placed in the order book aka our maker.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    When it comes to transaction fees, there are some specific blockchain network fees that might occur when the user moves tokens on the blockchain to and from Bittrex.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    There are no deposit fees issued by Bittrex while there are withdrawal fees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
