A closed hosted service with clear terms naming BTG Technology Holdings Limited; the toolkit is MIT (15 of 30). The privacy notice names the controller and EEA representative, gives 7-year and up to 10-year retention for compliance and litigation, and names recipients by category only (18 of 30). Deprecations and parameter changes carry effective dates (delta mode deprecated 27 August, symbol and category required from 30 September, snapshot changes with demo and live dates) but no written policy (15 of 20). Recipients by category, transfers under Seychelles law with no locations or provider names (5 of 20). 53.\n- HTX trading API (25): The editorial half. A closed service whose user agreement exists but couldn't be read (script-drawn pages), so the licence clarity is unknown rather than unclear (10 of 30). The privacy policy was not read (0 of 30, unchecked). The testnet shutdown and the 2022 changelog entries are dated, with no deprecation policy (5 of 20). No subprocessor or data-location statement read (0 of 20). 10 + 0 + 5 + 0 = 15.\n\n### Schema \u0026 documentation: Bitget +34\n\n- Bitget (74): The agent SDK ships openapi.yaml with 109 typed UTA v3 operations from which the tools are generated, a machine-readable contract from the vendor's own organisation though not on the docs site (20 of 25). llms.txt in the SDK and MCP repositories; the docs site has none (6 of 10). Intent tools with a discover tool that explains each verb, action and its risk level, and the server's initialize instructions state surface, modules and read-only posture (15 of 20). Typed inputs with enums and required fields from the OpenAPI source (12 of 15). Examples in the quick start and READMEs, a REST error code page in the legacy docs that we did not read in full (9 of 15). Changelog by day with preview notices and effective dates (12 of 15). 74.\n- HTX trading API (40): No OpenAPI or other machine-readable contract found in the docs or the GitHub accounts (0). No llms.txt on htx.com, and the readable reference is a static page (0). Each endpoint states its purpose and parameters, without when-to-use guidance (12 of 20). Parameter tables carry types, required flags and enums for order types and states (10 of 15). Request and response examples throughout and error-code tables with messages (11 of 15). Versions v1 and v2 are mixed in one reference whose last changelog entry is 24 June 2022, while HTX's newer docs on htx.com couldn't be read (7 of 15). 0 + 0 + 12 + 10 + 11 + 7 = 40.\n\n### Payments \u0026 pricing: Bitget +25\n\n- Bitget (40): No machine payment protocol (0). Base spot and futures rates are stated in a help article without login, the tier table draws by script (20). Market data needs no key, demo trading costs nothing and no card is asked for at sign-up (20). A person registers, verifies identity and mints the key in a browser (0). 40.\n- HTX trading API (15): No machine payment protocol (0). The fee schedule at htx.com/fee is drawn by script and answered no text, so no price is recorded first-hand (0 of 20, unchecked). Public market data needs no key, card or account; trading needs a verified and funded account. Judgement call (15 of 20). A person must sign up in a browser and pass identity checks (0). 0 + 0 + 15 + 0 = 15.\n\n### Maintenance \u0026 community: Bitget +21\n\n- Bitget (78): Read as a hosted service with an open-source toolkit. The UTA changelog's latest launched entry is 30 October 2026 and a preview entry 3 November; the MCP package shipped 3.3.1 on 20 September and agent-skill was pushed 30 October (30). 58 dated changelog entries since 5 August 2026 and six MCP versions since June (20). Issue trackers on the Bitget-AI repositories (11 open on agent_hub) and a support centre; replies were not checked (10 of 25). In the official MCP registry under io.github.Bitget-AI, a GitHub namespace, with official SDKs in five languages (10 of 15). CI workflow with coverage, npm provenance attestations, two runtime dependencies, no install scripts (8 of 10). 78.\n- HTX trading API (57): Read as a closed service. The readable changelog ends on 24 June 2022, but the official contract SDKs were pushed on 21 October 2026 and the spot SDKs in April and July 2026, so the API surface is still being maintained; judgement call (20 of 30). SDK pushes on 30 July, 23 August and 21 October 2026 are commits, not releases (10 of 20). A Telegram group for API support and a support centre, neither tested; GitHub issues not read (8 of 15). Official SDKs in five languages (15). No CI seen, dependencies not checked (4 of 10). 20 + 10 + 8 + 15 + 4 = 57.\n\n### Agent ergonomics: Bitget +14\n\n- Bitget (83): Read for the API with the MCP server as the agent route. 14 compact tools by default, module filters, a full surface on request and progressive discovery (25). Cursor pagination on CFD order history since 15 October 2026 and limit parameters on lists (15 of 20). Uniform ok or error result shape from the SDK with typed error classes and compact JSON in the text channel (13 of 20). clientOid on orders, `dryRun: true` on every write, `confirm: true` gating cancelAll and withdraw, annotations derived from risk level including readOnlyHint, destructiveHint and idempotentHint (18 of 20). Few required fields, official SDKs in five languages plus the TypeScript agent SDK and a CLI (12 of 15). 83.\n- HTX trading API (69): Graded on the REST API. Responses can be sized with depth types, size and limit parameters on books, candles and history (15 of 25). Paging by from, size and direct on orders and history (14 of 20). Errors return err-code strings with messages, listed in tables (13 of 20). A client-order-id unique within 8 hours and idempotent withdrawal ids make retries safe, with no idempotency header on other writes (14 of 20). Few required parameters and official SDKs in five languages (13 of 15). 15 + 14 + 13 + 14 + 13 = 69.\n\n### Security \u0026 auth: Bitget +11\n\n- Bitget (62): API keys with read or read-and-write permission, a passphrase, HMAC-SHA256 or RSA signing, IP binding recommended, 50 keys per UID, revocation on the management page; no OAuth and no separate withdrawal scope in the docs read (22 of 30). --read-only strips write tools at start, --paper-trading routes to demo, and high-risk writes need `confirm: true` (18 of 20). Tools return the exchange's own data (10). Request and response hooks are forwarded as MCP log notifications; no per-call audit log on Bitget's side was found (6 of 15). security@bitget.com in the toolkit README, no security.txt, Mandiant and SlowMist reports on the September breach, a proof-of-reserves repository, no bounty page read (6 of 20). 62.\n- HTX trading API (51): HMAC-signed keys with Read, Trade and Withdraw permissions, sub-user keys without Withdraw, up to 20 bound IPs, revocation in the account and a 90-day expiry without IP binding. The AccessKeyId and the HMAC signature travel as query parameters; the secret does not, so no deduction for a secret in the URL (24 of 30). Read-only keys and withdraw-free keys exist; no server-side confirmation for orders or withdrawals (14 of 20). The API returns the exchange's own data, no untrusted content (10). No per-call log or key-use history found for the operator (3 of 15). No security.txt, disclosure policy or certification found on the pages that loaded (0 of 20). 24 + 14 + 10 + 3 + 0 = 51.\n\n## Score by category\n\n| Category | Weight | Bitget | HTX trading API | Edge |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| Reliability | 16% (20 this run) | 40 | 38 | Bitget +2 |\n| Performance | 10%, pending | pending | pending | not scored in this run |\n| Schema \u0026 documentation | 13% (16.2 this run) | 74 | 40 | Bitget +34 |\n| Agent ergonomics | 13% (16.2 this run) | 83 | 69 | Bitget +14 |\n| Security \u0026 auth | 14% (17.5 this run) | 62 | 51 | Bitget +11 |\n| Payments \u0026 pricing | 10% (12.5 this run) | 40 | 15 | Bitget +25 |\n| Task success | 10%, pending | pending | pending | not scored in this run |\n| Maintenance \u0026 community | 7% (8.8 this run) | 78 | 57 | Bitget +21 |\n| Transparency \u0026 trust | 7% (8.8 this run) | 65 | 25 | Bitget +40 |\n| Negative events | ≤15 | -8 | 0 | |\n| **Total** | | **53.9 · D** | **43.3 · E** | |\n\n## Facts side by side\n\n| Fact | Bitget | HTX trading API |\n| --- | --- | --- |\n| Kind | HTTP API | HTTP API |\n| Vendor | BTG Technology Holdings Limited | HTX |\n| Hosted endpoint | no (local only) | no (local only) |\n| Transports | stdio | |\n| Auth | API key | API key |\n| Pricing | Pay per use | Pay per use |\n| x402 | no | no |\n| Tools exposed | 14 | 0 |\n| Read-only variant documented | yes | no |\n| llms.txt | no | no |\n| MCP registry | `io.github.Bitget-AI/bitget-agent-mcp` | not listed |\n| Last release | 2026-10-30 | 2026-10-21 |\n| Terms last updated | 2026-10-20 | no date given |\n| Privacy policy last updated | 2025-12-05 | no document linked |\n| Customer content may train models | not found in the text | not found in the text |\n| Terms restrict automated access | yes | not found in the text |\n| Terms restrict benchmarking | not found in the text | not found in the text |\n| Terms or service can change without notice | yes | yes |\n| Arbitration or class-action waiver | yes | yes |\n| Popularity | 234 stars | 684 stars |\n\n## Verdicts\n\n**Bitget.** Bitget's official MCP server keeps the default surface to 14 intent tools with discovery, read-only and paper-trading switches, dry runs and a confirmation gate on withdrawals, over an API with demo trading. A 388 million dollar wallet breach in September 2026 paused withdrawals for eight days, and there is no status page, SLA or readable fee table.\n\n**HTX trading API.** HTX's API has per-endpoint rate limits, read, trade and withdraw key permissions with IP binding, and SDKs in five languages. No official MCP server exists, the testnet is closed, the public reference is still Huobi's with a 2022 changelog, and the fee schedule, terms and restricted countries are on script-drawn pages we couldn't read.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### Bitget\n\n1. Run `npx -y @bitget-ai/bitget-agent-mcp --read-only` for research and `--paper-trading` with a demo key before any live order; the two flags cannot be combined\n2. Call discover({}) first, then the intent verbs; add `dryRun: true` to any write to preview it, and pass `confirm: true` only after the person has agreed to a withdraw or cancelAll\n3. Send a unique clientOid of at most 64 characters on every order and reuse it on retry; orderId wins when both are sent\n4. Stay under 10 requests a second per endpoint on a new account and 6,000 a minute per IP; the SDK retries on 429, so do not add a second retry loop\n5. Bind the key to an IP and keep write permission off a research key; the docs read show no separate withdrawal scope\n\n### HTX trading API\n\n1. Ask the operator for a key with Read and Trade only and bound to your IP addresses; a key without IP binding expires after 90 days\n2. Send a fresh client-order-id of up to 64 characters with every order and reuse it only on retry; a repeat within 8 hours answers invalid.client.order.id\n3. Watch X-HB-RateLimit-Requests-Remain and pace at under 100 order calls per 2 seconds per UID; limits are shared by every key on the account\n4. There is no testnet; try order logic with the smallest size the market allows\n5. Confirm the person's country is served before trading; the restricted list in the user agreement couldn't be read here\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Bitget or HTX trading API?\n\nBitget scores 53.9 (D) on agent readiness against HTX trading API's 43.3 (E), and leads in every scored category.\n\n### Do Bitget and HTX trading API need an API key?\n\nBoth need an API key.\n\n### Can an agent call Bitget and HTX trading API without installing anything?\n\nBitget runs on your own machine, with no hosted endpoint listed. No hosted endpoint is listed for HTX trading API.\n\n\n## For agents\n\n- This comparison as JSON: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/bitget-vs-htx.json, and with the fewest tokens: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/bitget-vs-htx.min.md\n- Over MCP at https://www.anchorterminal.com/mcp (no key): `compare_tools {\"a\": \"bitget\", \"b\": \"htx\"}`.
