XChange is a Java library providing a simple, consistent API for interacting with 60+ Bitcoin and other cryptocurrency exchanges. It supports both polling and streaming access for trading operations and market data across a unified interface.

Use cases

  • connect to multiple crypto exchanges from Java with one API
  • fetch ticker and order book market data from Bitcoin exchanges
  • place and manage trades on cryptocurrency exchanges programmatically
  • stream live market data from Binance or Bitfinex
  • build a crypto trading bot in Java
  • get account balances and trade history from exchanges

When to choose

  • you need a unified Java API across many cryptocurrency exchanges
  • you want both REST polling and streaming market data in one library
  • you're building Java, Android, or Java EE apps that trade crypto

When to avoid

  • you need exchanges not among the 60+ supported integrations
  • you're not working on the JVM and prefer a native Python or JS library
  • you need guaranteed production support for every exchange's latest API changes
