        What is Gemini API?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

        Gemini API is a method that allows us to automatically trade cryptocurrencies on Gemini via code.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        What is Gemini?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

        Gemini is a US-based cryptocurrency exchange platform that allows its users to safely buy, sell, and create portfolios around crypto.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        Gemini was created in 2014 in New York by the Winklevoss twins. This makes Gemini one of the few crypto exchanges that are regulated in the US.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        Gemini brings a user-friendly platform that is great for beginners and advanced traders alike. For example, beginner traders will enjoy Gemini\u2019s web and mobile apps while the advanced users may dive into advanced features that the Active Trader brings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

        What is the Gemini Dollar?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

        The Gemini Dollar (GUSD) is a regulated stablecoin that is designed for spending, lending and trading. It is also supported by the US dollars held at State Street Bank and Trust Company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        This means that it can be transferred back to US dollars at any time with a 1:1 rate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

        Is Gemini free?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

        Gemini offers various fee schedules that are dependent on the platform you use. Most traders tend to use their web and mobile platforms, so the fees for those look like the following:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        Less than $10 \/ fee $0.99<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        More than $10 but less than $25 \/ fee $1.49<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        More than $25 but less than $50 \/ fee $1.99<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        $50.01 to $200 \/ fee $2.99<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        More than $200 \/ fee 1.49% of your total order value<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        You will also be charged a convenience fee of 0.50% of the current market price of the coin that you are buying, on top of the transaction fee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        The API usage fees are more complicated so I would advise the reader to visit the following link for a better look where all the calculations are shown with examples:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
