exchange-bittrex-public-api

Bittrex Public API (Node)

This package interacts with the public REST API endpoints for the Bittrex Exchange that require no authentication using Promises.

With this package, you should be able to get access to:

• Cryptocurrency Pair Quotes
• Market Metadata
• 24-Hour Market Summary
• Order Flow & Market History

API requiring authentication has been decoupled, and will be created in an additional package as an add-on.
