Breaking - Change of AssetType for Crypto FX (from May 2025)
Today all our Crypto FX pairs have the AssetType "FxSpot", with the DisplayHint value of "CryptoCurrencies". We will soon move these instruments to have their own AssetType called "FxCrypto" with no DisplayHint value.
The impacted instruments are those with UICs:
- 21700189 (BTCUSD - Bitcoin/US Dollar)
- 21750301 (ETHUSD - Ethereum/US Dollar)
- 21776927 (BTCEUR - Bitcoin/Euro)
- 21776932 (ETHEUR - Ethereum/Euro)
- 21776937 (BTCJPY - Bitcoin/Japanese Yen)
- 21776938 (ETHJPY - Ethereum/Japanese Yen).
To prepare for this change, your application be must adjusted to handle both AssetTypes being returned for these instruments in your code. This will ensure that you will not experience interruptions once the changes take effect.
For requests sent to OpenAPI, FxSpot should be kept until this change has been rolled out. We will keep accepting FxSpot together with the above mentioned UICs for the foreseeable future, but after you start receiving these instruments back as FxCrypto, you're welcome to start sending in FxCrypto as the AssetType for requests as well.
Breaking - Enforcement of pre-trade disclaimers (from May 2025)
Handling of pre-trade disclaimers will become mandatory for all OpenAPI apps from May 2025, so it's important to implement proper support for it in your OpenAPI Application as soon as possible.

Failure to properly handle pre-trade disclaimers in your application will lead to orders being rejected. Even if no disclaimers are present for your user at this time, they can be added at any time without warning.
