Currencies

GET
/v1/public/currencies

Get a list of currencies supported by VALR. A currency may optionally expose: defaultNetworkType - the network type identifier that will be used if a network type is not specified on a deposit request or a withdrawal request via the API; supportedNetworks - a list of networks that are available to use for deposits and/or withdrawals for a given currency. NOTE: If a currency does not expose any supported networks, it means that both withdrawals and deposits are not available for the specified currency on VALR. If a currency does expose supported networks, either both withdrawals and deposits are available, or one of withdrawals or deposits is not available for that network. This can be determined using the deposit and withdraw properties on each network in supportedNetworks. For withdrawals, the withdrawalDecimalPlaces specified on the supportedNetworks level is the maximum scale of the value that will be submitted to the network and will be rounded down to that scale if a value with a larger scale is provided. This is a public API and therefore the values are cached. In particular estimatedSendCost may be out of date. For an up to date estimation of the cost to withdraw crypto on-chain, refer to the withdrawCost field of the Wallets / Crypto / Withdrawal Config Info API.
