Updated 27th Sept 2021
This is an unofficial Python wrapper for the Binance exchange REST API v3. I am in no way affiliated with Binance, use at your own risk.
If you came here looking for the Binance exchange to purchase cryptocurrencies, then go here. If you want to automate interactions with Binance stick around.

Make sure you update often and check the Changelog for new features and bug fixes.
- Implementation of all General, Market Data and Account endpoints.
- Asyncio implementation
- Testnet support for Spot, Futures and Vanilla Options
- Simple handling of authentication
- No need to generate timestamps yourself, the wrapper does it for you
- Response exception handling
- Websocket handling with reconnection and multiplexed connections
- Symbol Depth Cache
- Historical Kline/Candle fetching function
- Withdraw functionality
- Deposit addresses
- Margin Trading
- Futures Trading
- Vanilla Options
- Support other domains (.us, .jp, etc)
The breaking changes include the migration from wapi to sapi endpoints which related to the wallet endpoints detailed in the Binance Docs
The other breaking change is for websocket streams and the Depth Cache Manager which have been converted to use Asynchronous Context Managers. See examples in the Async section below or view the websockets and depth cache docs.
Register an account with Binance.
Generate an API Key and assign relevant permissions.
If you are using an exchange from the US, Japan or other TLD then make sure pass tld='us' when creating the client.
To use the Spot or Vanilla Options Testnet, pass testnet=True when creating the client.
