πŸ”— Welcome to the Xverse API

Build powerful Bitcoin applications with production-grade APIs used by β€” now available to developers.

Our suite of APIs provides everything you need to interact with the modern Bitcoin ecosystem: from Ordinals and Runes, to Bitcoin-native swaps, inscriptions, and Bitcoin L2 integrations. Whether you're building wallets, DeFi platforms, NFT marketplaces, or cross-chain bridges, our infrastructure gives you access to reliable, real-time blockchain data and ready-to-use transaction workflows.


πŸš€ Why use the Xverse API?

We’ve built these APIs to solve real problems we encountered while building the Xverse wallet & app suite. Now we’re opening them up to help Bitcoin developers skip the heavy lifting and focus on what really matters: building.

Use our APIs to:

  • 🧠 Get comprehensive & real-time transaction history and UTXO data for any address

  • Fetch Ordinals, Runes, and BRC-20 balances & parse transaction data with zero custom indexing

  • Access live & historical market data and trading activity for Bitcoin assets: Ordinals, Runes, BRC-20 and Bitcoin L2 tokens.

  • πŸ’± Aggregate swaps across Bitcoin AMMs & L2s (Stacks, Runes, BRC-20, etc.)

  • ✍️ Mint, etch, and inscribe directly via simple endpoints

  • πŸŒ‰ Enable cross-chain swaps and bridging flows


🧰 What’s Inside

Our API suite is organized into powerful modules that serve different needs across the Bitcoin ecosystem:

Module
Description

Fetch UTXOs, balances, real-time and comprehensive Bitcoin transaction data, optimized for apps and dashboards.

Fetch detailed information on all inscriptions, UTXOs, rare sats β€” everything you need to power an Ordinals experience.

Automate Ordinal inscriptions with advanced features. Estimate costs, create orders, and track inscription statuses seamlessly.

Query Rune balances and detailed information. Integrate Runes into your apps without building infra. Mint and etch Runes, with cost estimates, order management and execution.

Seamlessly integrate Bitcoin-asset swaps into your application. Aggregate quotes from multiple AMMs across Bitcoin and L2s, generate and execute swap orders, and facilitate cross-chain swapsβ€”all through a unified interface.

Query BRC-20 balances and detailed information. Integrate BRC-20 into your apps without building infra. Mint and deploy BRC-20, with cost estimates, order management and execution.


βš™οΈ How It Works

All endpoints are RESTful and return JSON responses. You can use them with your preferred stack β€” whether you're writing in JavaScript, Python, Rust, or anything else.


πŸ§‘β€πŸ’» Built for Builders

This API suite powers real products β€” including the Xverse wallet and app β€” and is optimized for scale, speed, and uptime.

βœ… >99% Uptime ⚑ Low-latency responses πŸ”’ Secure & production-tested πŸ“ˆ Scalable for any app size
