MEXC’s futures API has been ‘temporarily disabled’ for 3 years

MEXC disabled their futures trading API on July 25, 2022.

From their docs:

“place order endpoints and cancel orders endpoints will be closed temporarily. The query endpoints can still be used”

That was THREE FUCKING YEARS AGO.

“Temporarily.”

You know what’s temporary? A few hours. Maybe a day. A week if shit’s really broken. Not THREE YEARS.

Meanwhile they’re out here adding new futures features every other week. Prediction markets with 3 minute timeframes so you can lose money faster. New coins. New leverage options. The futures platform clearly fucking works because they won’t shut up about it.

But the API? The thing developers actually need to build automated trading? Still “under maintenance” like it’s 2022.

People have been complaining about this for years in their support channels. They ignore it completely.

How do you market yourself as a top 10 exchange with API support when core functionality has been broken for three years?

Either they’re too incompetent to fix it or they genuinely don’t give a shit about developers. Probably the latter.

Don’t build on MEXC. They’ve spent 3 years proving they’ll leave your shit broken and gaslight you about it being “temporary.”
