Hi,
Can someone recommend the best wallet for sending and receiving of bitcoin via an API?
I currently use Kraken, but there doesn't seem to be a feature on the API for sending BTC to new addresses. I have to do that manually.
Thanks
Sorry for this noob question which is also a bit out of what is being discussed, but i want to get something straight.Can someone recommend the best wallet for sending and receiving of bitcoin via an API?

I know kraken is a centralized exchange and run custodial wallets, and if i am not wrong, the use of custodial wallets for any type of transactions except trading are always discouraged on this forum.
my question is simple, concerning what the op is asking about, are there no non-custodial wallets available with a feature which permits sending and receiving Bitcoins via API ?
Personally, ive not come across a non-custodial wallet with such a feature, or maybe i didnt pay enough attention to the features of the non-custodial wallets ive used in the past.
Answers, confirmation or correction is appreciated.
The easiest way (not recommended if you're planning to hold large amounts in there) would be to use Blockchain.com's wallet API probably.
For receiving: https://www.blockchain.com/api/api_receive
Forward them elsewhere: https://www.blockchain.com/api/blockchain_wallet_api
A more ideal solution would've been Blockonomics payment forwarder, but they discontinued their service some time ago.

BTCPay server has an API, maybe it's what you're looking for.
The best part is, you don't even have to keep your coins on BTCPay - in fact, you can't, since the architecture relies on a single master public key - simply use any wallet that supports BIP32 heirarchical derivation, and export its master public key to BTCPay.
But I guess that doesn't help with sending them somewhere else, does it? In that case, I'd look into using bitcoind's RPC.

Kraken is an exchange, not a wallet. What exactly are you trying to do? Maybe you can use command line Electrum or Bitcoin Core to accomplish what you need.
You can run your own bitcoind and use RPC calls and do it:

If you give a little more detail as to what / how you are trying to do something there may be more ways to do it.
Since you mentioned Kraken I am guessing you are just keeping everything on an exchange. That may not be the best way depending on what you are trying to do.
