New minimum_deposit attribute for crypto_config

deriv_api_support · November 2022

Dear developers,

We’re adding a new optional property, minimum_deposit, to the response of the crypto_config API call. This is the acceptable minimum deposit amount for a particular currency. Please note that minimum_deposit is only applicable for some currencies.

This attribute is implemented to prevent loss of funds when clients enter a deposit amount that’s too low.

Note: While the “minimum_withdrawal” value is based on USD, the “minimum_deposit” value is based on the corresponding cryptocurrency.

An example of the request

{
  "crypto_config": 1
}
