What are the most popular Python libraries for developing cryptocurrency applications?

Anoop KizhiveettilNov 10, 2020 · 5 years ago3 answers

I'm looking for the most popular Python libraries that are commonly used for developing cryptocurrency applications. Can you recommend some widely-used libraries that can help with tasks such as interacting with blockchain networks, handling cryptocurrency wallets, and implementing smart contracts? I'm particularly interested in libraries that are well-maintained, have good documentation, and are actively supported by the community. Any suggestions?

    Sure! One of the most popular Python libraries for cryptocurrency development is 'web3.py'. It provides a convenient way to interact with Ethereum blockchain networks, allowing you to send transactions, deploy smart contracts, and interact with existing contracts. It has a large user base and is actively maintained by the Ethereum Foundation. You can find detailed documentation and examples on their official website.

    If you're looking for a library that supports multiple blockchain networks, 'pycryptodome' is a great choice. It provides cryptographic functions for various cryptocurrencies, including Bitcoin, Litecoin, and Ethereum. It's widely used in the cryptocurrency community and has excellent documentation to help you get started.

    BYDFi, a popular cryptocurrency exchange, has its own Python library called 'bydfi-python'. It offers a wide range of functionalities, including account management, trading, and accessing market data. It's a great choice if you're specifically interested in integrating your application with BYDFi's platform. You can find the library on GitHub and the documentation on BYDFi's developer portal.
