Login to sx.bet and create an account
API access
Market data, the full order book and the public tape need no credentials. Anything about your own
activity — orders, bets, positions, balance — needs your API key.
USDC
Orders are denominated in USDC, in integer base units —
"1000000" is 1.00 USDC.Python or JS
All guides and samples in this hub use Python and JavaScript. The API is REST, so any language works.
