Crypto Swap Exchange

Quote from: ?? on ??

Binance: Binance is one of the largest cryptocurrency exchanges in the world and offers an API for developers to send and receive cryptocurrencies, including Bitcoin, Ethereum, Bitcoin Cash, and Litecoin.

While their API has wallet endpoints[1], their wallet is custodial. I doubt it's practical for OP to manage KYC process and 0.001 LTC withdraw fee[2] (about $0.1) just to send $1-$5.

BitPay: BitPay is a payment processor that allows businesses to accept Bitcoin and Bitcoin Cash payments. It also offers an API for developers to send and receive cryptocurrencies.

BitPay have no service which suitable for OP use case though. Their API[3] is meant for their payment processor.

Use a programming language tool to generate a transaction from an offline wallet such as those from Electrum, Samourai, etc, and then use the Blockcypher API to broadcast those transactions.

It supports Bitcoin, ETH, Litecoin, Doge, and Dash. You didn't tell us which coins you need to support though, and it's rare to find transaction broadcasting services for niche altcoins.

BTC price road to $80k

Thanks for all the feedback.

I have an incentive-based site, users do surveys and I pay them in crypto.

So it is a CPA website?
What CMS do you use from your site?
Are you using WordPress?
BTCpay is the best option to this check the link below.

You don't need any 3rd party service it is safer and open-source than using APIs from other wallet. Check the documentation from the link above.

I know that blockchain.com has a similar service if your funds ade in their wallet.

As the amounts are very small, I don't think this is a problem. However, this is not a secure wallet.

It looks like they haven't updated that for a long time because it doesn't look like you can use this for anything but BTC.

Imo LTC is becoming more unnecessary as time passes.
Bitcoin fees are quite reasonable and with lightning network there isn't any more a reason to use ltc. AFAIK.

It would be a good opportunity for op move to btc

If you don't mind I would like to ask what service you offer to your users why would you pay them?

Maybe BTCpayserver can help you about paying your users the best thing about using BTCpayserver is that there is no 3rd party you can host this with your own machine unlike other wallets or services online they do have control of your wallets.

And how did you end up using block.io if you can do it manually with your wallet unless you want them to automate withdrawal in your own website where your users requesting for withdrawal or payout so BTCpayserver is the right choice for this and they do support LTC.

I may be wrong, but I think that the service that you're after is named "Wallet as a Service" (WaaS). According to CryptoAPIs[1] (which seem to offer what you're looking for):

Quote

Wallet as a Service (WaaS) is a highly secure and scalable crypto wallet infrastructure, offering flexible options for digital assets management for businesses and institutions of all sizes.

If this is the service you're referring to, besides the solution provided by bitmover, I also found another named Blockcypher[2].

Can someone recommend an alternative to block.io that has an API to send crypto?

All I need to do is send LTC to my users in VERY small amounts ($1-$5). Block.io was great, had an API.

Suddenly today my account was "locked" with no explanation.

Thank you in advance.
