Kucoin.Net
Kucoin.Net is a strongly typed client library for accessing the Kucoin REST and Websocket API.
Features
- Response data is mapped to descriptive models
- Input parameters and response values are mapped to discriptive enum values where possible
- High performance
- Automatic websocket (re)connection management
- Client side rate limiting
- Client side order book implementation
- Support for managing different accounts
- Extensive logging
- Support for different environments (production, testnet)
- Easy integration with other exchange client based on the CryptoExchange.Net base library
- Native AOT support
Supported Frameworks
The library is targeting both .NET Standard 2.0 and .NET Standard 2.1 for optimal compatibility, as well as the latest dotnet versions to use the latest framework features.
| .NET implementation | Version Support |
|---|---|

Install the library
NuGet
dotnet add package Kucoin.Net
GitHub packages
Kucoin.Net is available on GitHub packages. You'll need to add https://nuget.pkg.github.com/JKorf/index.json as a NuGet package source.
Download release
The NuGet package files are added along side the source with the latest GitHub release which can found here.
How to use
Basic request:
// Get the ETH/USDT ticker via rest request
var restClient = new KucoinRestClient();
var tickerResult = await restClient.SpotApi.ExchangeData.GetTickerAsync("ETH-USDT");
var lastPrice = tickerResult.Data.LastPrice;
Place order:
var restClient = new KucoinRestClient(opts => {
opts.ApiCredentials = new KucoinCredentials("APIKEY", "APISECRET");
});
// Place Limit order to go long for 0.1 ETH at 2000
var orderResult = await restClient.FuturesApi.Trading.PlaceOrderAsync(
"ETHUSDTM",
OrderSide.Buy,
NewOrderType.Limit,
quantity: 10,
price: 2000,
positionSide: PositionSide.Long
);
WebSocket subscription:
// Subscribe to ETH/USDT ticker updates via the websocket API
var socketClient = new KucoinSocketClient();
var tickerSubscriptionResult = socketClient.SpotApi.SubscribeToTickerUpdatesAsync("ETH-USDT", (update) =>
{
var lastPrice = update.Data.LastPrice;
});
For information on the clients, dependency injection, response processing and more see the Kucoin.Net documentation or have a look at the examples here or here.
