(edit 22-Dec: changed the title; see my last post in this thread for full details)

I have implemented nearly all of the exchange APIs so far, (including MtGox's and Bitfloor's which use the same HMAC-SHA512 authentication scheme that CryptoXChange claims to use).  CryptoXChange's servers reject all of my API calls:

Here's the call:

POST https://cryptoxchange.com/api/v0/account/balance/
cryptokey: Crypto-Key-REDACTED
cryptopayload: REDACTED

stamp=1324030034494


And the reply:


{
  "AccountNumber": "",
  "Balance": {},
  "ReturnCodes": 3,
  "err": "payload invalid ",
  "stamp": ""
}


I've emailed them several times and they don't reply.  I guess they don't want customers.

The printing press heralded the end of the Dark Ages and made the Enlightenment possible, but it took another three centuries before any country managed to put freedom of the press beyond the reach of legislators.  So it may take a while before cryptocurrencies are free of the AML-NSA-KYC surveillance plague.

I will get this information to them, I am sure that they did not mean to ignore your emails and they were simply overlooked. I will contact them and tell them to respond to this thread Smiley

Okay.  Their website has been dog-slow for over a week now, too.

The printing press heralded the end of the Dark Ages and made the Enlightenment possible, but it took another three centuries before any country managed to put freedom of the press beyond the reach of legislators.  So it may take a while before cryptocurrencies are free of the AML-NSA-KYC surveillance plague.

Hi  eldentyrell,

Our support team have not seen any emails from you in regards to this.

We have tried to replicate the issue now and check to see if there is a problem, and we cannot duplicate the issue.

It seems like it maybe timing out?

If you could try emailing contact@cryptoxchange.com so that we can sort this out for you as quickly as possible Sir.

Thank you very much.

That's where I sent it on 6-Dec-2011 with the subject line "your api is broken".

I've re-sent the email.

I got a pretty useless reply from them saying "we do it the same as MtGox, here's a pointer to code that works with their API".

I don't think Crypto X Change actually has a working API.

Finally got a coherent reply.  It turns out that they use a non-standard key-size: 43 bytes.  MtGox and BitFloor both use 64-byte keys.

if you had of followed the instructions like everyone else who uses the API you wouldn't have had any issues.

No, that is not true, and it's not nearly that simple.  I have a complete explanation here:
