Connect to Bitcoin Cash via Vezgo API

Accounts

Positions

Transactions

Support for Accounts, Positions and Transactions enabled.

Retrieves a maximum of 5000 new transactions per sync, and up to 50,000 transactions in total.


The connector works with either a BCH address or an xPub key.


  • In case of a BCH address, it tracks balances and transactions for that address only.
  • In case of an extended public key, it tracks balances and transactions for each of the addresses generated from that key.

Data mapping

A field-level guide to the Vezgo API data for Bitcoin Cash — what each attribute means and where to read it — so you can map it into your own system.

DataWhere to read itSource on Bitcoin Cash
Account & walletaccount.wallets[].addressThe connected Bitcoin Cash address or extended public key (xpub). An xpub derives all of the wallet's addresses; one address/xpub is one account. wallet.address holds it and is the stable identity reused across syncs and reconnects.
Balances / positionsaccount.balances[]A single native BCH balance — Bitcoin Cash is UTXO-based, so there are no tokens or NFTs. The balance has ticker BCH, amount, decimals and fiat_value (USD).
TransactionsGET /accounts/:id/transactionsNative BCH deposits and withdrawals (UTXO), one per on-chain transaction. See "How to read a transaction" below.
Assets / securitiesbalance.tickerOnly the native coin BCH — there are no token contracts on Bitcoin Cash, so ticker_address is not used.

How to read a transaction

Each Bitcoin Cash transaction is a single native BCH movement (UTXO). Read it from the transaction itself:

  • Native BCH movement — parts[] (direction received/sent, ticker "BCH", amount, fiat_value) and the network fee in fees[] (always BCH).
  • Counterparties — parts[0] has from_address / to_address plus other_parties[] (UTXO transactions carry multiple inputs and outputs).
  • The on-chain transaction hash is in misc.origin_id; misc.owner_address is the wallet address (for an xpub wallet, the specific derived address involved — wallet.address holds the xpub).
// One Vezgo transaction = one on-chain transaction (tx.misc.origin_id = hash)
const hash = tx.misc.origin_id;        // on-chain transaction hash
const dir  = tx.transaction_type;      // "deposit" | "withdrawal" (canonical direction)
const kind = tx.misc.origin_type;      // "IN" (deposit) or "OUT" (withdrawal)

const native  = tx.parts?.[0];               // native BCH movement (ticker "BCH")
const gas     = tx.fees?.[0];                // network fee, always in BCH
const parties = native?.other_parties ?? []; // extra UTXO inputs / outputs

// Bitcoin Cash is native-only: no tokenTransfers / nftTransfers / internalTransfers.
Where to read itAttributesWhat it is
tx.transaction_type"deposit" | "withdrawal"Canonical direction of the transaction.
tx.parts[0]direction, ticker ("BCH"), amount, fiat_value, from_address, to_address, other_partiesNative BCH movement. other_parties holds the extra UTXO inputs/outputs.
tx.fees[0]ticker ("BCH"), amount, fiat_valueNetwork fee — always paid in BCH.

misc.origin_type is one of:

  • IN
  • OUT

Supported

  • Native BCH balance and transfers
  • Address and extended-public-key (xpub) wallets
  • Network fees (reported in BCH)
  • USD fiat valuation for balances and transactions

Notes & limitations

  • Bitcoin Cash is UTXO / native-only — no tokens, NFTs or staking.
  • decimals may be null for some chains (e.g. Dash, Litecoin); amount is in whole-coin units regardless.
  • fees[] is present on deposits too — there it is the whole on-chain network fee (economically paid by the sender), not a charge to your wallet; the connected wallet only bears the fee on sends/withdrawals.
  • Up to ~5,000 transactions per sync for typical wallets; for very large wallets the per-sync batch is smaller (~1,000) and history is imported incrementally over later syncs. Wallets with extremely large histories (50k+ transactions) are not supported.
