Understand the project
Practical overview
When it fits
Use it when a C#/.NET application needs typed access to Bitfinex REST or WebSocket operations rather than a standalone exchange interface.
Who it is for
- C# and .NET developers building applications that use Bitfinex market data.
- Teams integrating spot or futures trading workflows with Bitfinex APIs.
Documented uses
- Retrieve ticker data through REST requests.
- Subscribe to WebSocket ticker updates.
- Submit authenticated orders through the exchange API.
- Use shared interfaces for common exchange operations where the required capability is supported.

Source-based practical guide
Retrieve a Bitfinex ETH/USDT ticker over REST
Request the ETH/USDT ticker and read its last price using Bitfinex.Net.
Before you start
- Bitfinex.Net installed in a .NET project.
- An asynchronous method context.
Steps
Create a
BitfinexRestClient.Call
restClient.ExchangeApi.ExchangeData.GetTickerAsync("tETHUST").Read
tickerResult.Data.LastPricefrom the result.
Expected outcome
The code obtains the ticker response and accesses its last-price value.
Guide limitations
- The example documents a ticker request only; it does not show error handling or validate an exchange response.
