Description
Introducing new websockets public reference data channels: symbols, currencies, and exchange. The first two channels provide the same data as their REST API public endpoint counterparts (/markets and /currencies) but enable clients to be notified by the system automatically when any of the reference data changes, thus reducing the need to keep polling the API for the latest information. The exchange channel will provide status of maintenance and post only modes for the exchange. Below is a summary of the channels with more details provided on the api docs here.
