Is this your product? Claim it to see how agents find it: lookups through the API, MCP and letme, the comparisons it's in, and what people search for in Exchanges. Free, and it never changes the grade. Or verify it, or log in if it's already claimed.
Assessment. Deribit's JSON-RPC API has scoped keys with IP and expiry limits, asymmetric signing, an OpenAPI file, numeric rate limits and a 64-entry changelog. There is no official MCP server or client library, the fee schedule, terms and privacy policy sit on a support site that refused our reader, and the status page did not resolve.

From our research 11 facts checked against the vendor's pages
- Surface listed
- The JSON-RPC v2 API over WebSocket and HTTP at www.deribit.com/api/v2 (test.deribit.com for the test environment), read from docs.deribit.com, its OpenAPI and llms.txt files, the JSON-RPC changelog, insights.deribit.com and the VARA register on 3 November 2026. No account was made and no private method was called
- MCP server
- None found. Checked docs.deribit.com (no mention), the deribit GitHub organisation (0 public repositories) and the official MCP registry, whose search returns only io.github.mrfentmen/deribit-mcp 1.0.2, a third party's npm stdio package for index prices and tickers that is not Deribit's
- Key permissions
- Scopes

Keys are listed, disabled, reset and removed by API. Address allow-lists are documented on the support site, which refused our reader - Rate limits
- Per sub-account. Non-matching calls cost 500 credits from a 50,000 pool refilled at 10,000 a second (about 20 a second, burst 100);

Error 10028too_many_requestsends the session - Testnet
- https://test.deribit.com/api/v2 and wss://test.deribit.com/ws/api/v2, the same API with separate accounts and keys. The OpenAPI file's only server entry is the test host
- Countries
- Deribit FZE is licensed by VARA in Dubai for institutional, qualified and retail investors; retail clients are served through DRB Panama as a broker member. The restricted-jurisdictions article on support.deribit.com answered 403; its search snippet begins with Belarus (EEA and Swiss nationals exempt), Canada, Central African Republic, Congo, Cuba, Guam, Iran, Iraq, Japan, North Korea, Libya and Myanmar, and the full list is unchecked
- Fees
- Lowest-tier maker and taker fees unchecked (support site 403). Deribit's posts give VIP4 to VIP7 taker fees of 1.75, 1.50, 1.40 and 1.40 bps on perpetuals and futures from 19 October 2026, with negative maker fees as rebates, and 0 bps maker fees on USDC-settled linear options that don't expire on a Friday from 5 November 2026 to 31 January 2027. Spot pairs routed to Coinbase Exchange omit the block trade commission field
- FIX and WebSocket
- JSON-RPC over WebSocket is the recommended interface, with subscriptions and session tokens. A production FIX API (logon, new order single, mass quote, market data, trade capture, MMP limits) has its own changelog. Starbase adds SBE order entry, multicast market data and FIX drop copy for colocated clients only
- Terms on automated trading
- The terms of service (Deribit FZE membership terms and DRB Panama Inc. terms) are on support.deribit.com, which answered 403. The API usage policy in the docs allows automated trading and monitors order-to-volume ratios, redundant polling, errors and pings, with rate limits or IP bans only after contact except for excessive errors
- Errors
- JSON-RPC error objects with
code,messageanddata. About 159 codes listed; 10028 too_many_requests, 10040 retry, 10041 settlement_in_progress, 13009 unauthorized, 13011 insufficient_scope, 10009 not_enough_funds. The docs' sample code backs off exponentially to 30 seconds and caps retries at three - Legal entity
- Deribit FZE, Dubai, VARA licence VL/23/12/002 (CMA-VASP-1000000-0017), active, issued 1 November 2024. Retail clients contract with DRB Panama Inc., which insights.deribit.com's footer links as the terms' entity. Deribit has been owned by Coinbase since 14 August 2025 per The Block; the docs title reads Deribit by Coinbase

Strengths
- Keys carry
account,trade,wallet,block_tradeandblock_rfqscopes at read, read_write or none, withip:ADDRandexpireslimits, and Ed25519 or RSA keys keep the private half off Deribit - OpenAPI 3.0 and AsyncAPI files, llms.txt indexes and Markdown twins for every reference page
- Credit-based rate limits with numbers, per sub-account, and an errors page of about 159 codes with retry guidance (10028 back off, 10040 retry, 13009 refresh)
- A separate test environment at test.deribit.com with the same API and its own accounts and keys
- A dated JSON-RPC changelog since 2020 and an upcoming docs branch that previews the next release
Weaknesses
- No official MCP server, and the GitHub organisation has no public repositories, so no official SDK in any language
- The fee schedule, terms of service, privacy policy and restricted-jurisdictions list are on support.deribit.com, which answered 403, so the lowest-tier maker and taker fees are unchecked
- status.deribit.com did not resolve for our reader and Coinbase's status page has no Deribit component we could find, so the incident record is unchecked
- The HTTP authentication example sends
client_secretin the query string - Breaking changes such as the 15 September 2026 change to
user.changescarry no notice period in the changelog
Before you call it notes for agents
- Create the key with
trade:read_writeandwallet:none, anip:limit and anexpiresvalue; keepaccount:readunless the task edits subaccounts - Authenticate with
client_signatureor an Ed25519 key over WebSocket rather thanclient_credentialsover HTTP, which puts the secret in the URL - Watch the
limitsfield ofprivate/get_account_summaryand back off on error 10028; a session that runs out of credits is closed and must reconnect - Send a
noncewith orders so a retry after a timeout does not place a second order, and treatorder_not_foundon cancel as a possible fill - Develop against https://test.deribit.com/api/v2 first; production and test need separate accounts and keys

Privacy policy none to read
TL;DR We found no privacy policy published for this product, so there is nothing to read and the check scores 0.
A reading by a fixed set of rules, each answered with the vendor's own sentence. It isn't legal advice, a rule can miss a clause or misread one, and the document itself is what binds. How it's read and scored.
Deribit FZE is on VARA's public register, licence VL/23/12/002, active, issued 1 November 2024. Deribit's own post of 29 November 2024 says institutional and qualified investors contract with Deribit FZE and retail clients with DRB Panama, a broker member.
The terms URL comes from a search result title (Deribit Exchange Membership Terms, Deribit FZE, version 26 January 2026); support.deribit.com answered 403 to our reader, so the terms, the privacy policy and the fee and restricted-jurisdictions articles were not read.
RDAP gives deribit.com a registration date of 15 January 2014, registrar MarkMonitor.
status.deribit.com did not resolve on 3 November 2026 and Coinbase's status page showed no Deribit component or incident, so no status page is recorded.
https://www.deribit.com/.well-known/security.txt answered an HTML page with only the site title, so security.txt is unknown. Deribit's bug bounty runs on HackerOne per the support article title and HackerOne's customer story; insights.deribit.com/bug-bounty answered 403.
docs.deribit.com/robots.txt allows everything but /cdn-cgi/ and /_next/, with Content-Signal ai-input=yes. support.deribit.com's robots.txt allows article pages; the 403 is the site's answer, not a robots rule.

Humans behind the project who makes it and where to get help
Key people
Researched 3 November 2026 from public pages. The founders, John Jansen and Marius Jansen, launched Deribit in 2016 and left after the Coinbase acquisition per The Block of 14 August 2025; no Deribit page read names them with a role, so they are not listed. Luuk Strijers's role comes from Deribit's own post of 29 November 2024; whether he still holds it after the acquisition wasn't established, since the Coinbase and Business Wire announcements answered 403 or timed out and deribit.com's pages draw by script. No LinkedIn or X account for him is linked from a Deribit page. Ownership from The Block's report of the completed acquisition, the docs title Deribit by Coinbase and the migration article; investors are not listed for a subsidiary. Shown for information, not part of the grade yet. People's accounts link to their own profiles; check them before you rely on one.

Notable
- No official MCP server. The official MCP registry's search for deribit lists only io.github.mrfentmen/deribit-mcp, a third party's stdio package for index prices and tickers; Deribit's docs and its GitHub organisation (0 public repositories) have none source
- Coinbase International Exchange consolidated into Deribit on 1 October 2026; its API keys don't work on Deribit, each migrated account needs a new Deribit key with its own IP allowlist, and open positions moved as block trades tagged Migration source
- A new matching engine moved order entry latency from a 4.7 ms median on the Classic API to 76 µs on the new binary interfaces (Starbase), which need colocation or AWS PrivateLink; the Classic JSON-RPC API stays supported source
- Rate limits are credits per sub-account, 50,000 with 10,000 refilled a second at 500 a request for non-matching calls, and matching-engine tiers from 5 requests a second (burst 20) under USD 1 million of 7-day volume to 30 a second (burst 100) above USD 25 million. Exceeding them returns error 10028 and ends the session source
- The JSON-RPC changelog has 64 dated entries since 21 January 2020; the release of 6 May 2026 added a
noncefor idempotency, and the entries of 15 September and 13 October 2026 changeuser.changesposition updates and MMP group limits source - Deribit FZE holds VARA licence VL/23/12/002 in Dubai, issued 1 November 2024, for exchange services including derivatives and broker-dealer services, serving institutional, qualified and retail investors; retail clients are served through DRB Panama as a broker member per Deribit's post of 29 November 2024 source
- The API usage policy monitors order-to-volume ratios (10,000 matching-engine changes per 1 BTC traded counts as high), says penalties come only after contact, and warns that excessive errors can lead to an IP ban source

Read with the hosted lines on the JSON-RPC API. status.deribit.com did not resolve for our reader on 3 November 2026 and Coinbase's status page showed no Deribit component, so no status page is scored, with the unchecked line below (0). No readable history (5). Rate limits are documented with numbers, 50,000 credits per sub-account refilled at 10,000 a second, and matching-engine tiers of 5 to 30 requests a second by 7-day volume (15). Error 10028 ends the session and the errors page says to back off exponentially; 10040 means retry; the 6 May 2026 release added a nonce for idempotent orders (15). No SLA found (0).

OpenAPI 3.0.0 for the whole JSON-RPC surface (Deribit API 2.1.1, about 1.4 million characters) plus AsyncAPI files for the WebSocket side (25). llms.txt with production and upcoming indexes, and a Markdown twin of every page (10). Each operation has a description such as "Places a buy order for an instrument." with parameter notes, and the articles say when to use WebSocket subscriptions over polling, but the reference seldom says when not to use a method (13 of 20). Parameters are typed with enums (order type has eight values, time_in_force four) and required flags, with amount or contracts as a documented either-or (13 of 15). Every reference page carries an example request and response, and the errors page lists about 159 codes with retry guidance, though most operations document only a 200 response and the smaller error tables disagree with the full one on two codes (12 of 15).

An API, read for response sizing. public/get_order_book takes depth, get_instruments filters by currency and kind, and history methods take count and offset, though get_instruments returns every instrument for a currency and costs 10,000 credits (18 of 25). Count and offset pagination, time ranges on trade and transaction logs, and WebSocket channels with interval and depth options (16 of 20). Numeric error codes with short names, a wait value on some errors, and sample code that branches on them (18 of 20). A nonce on orders since May 2026 returns the existing order on retry, a label lets an agent find its own orders, and 10040 marks the calls safe to retry; no MCP annotations apply (16 of 20). Few required parameters and sensible defaults (limit and good_til_cancelled), but no official SDK in any language, so every caller signs and frames JSON-RPC itself (6 of 15). Total 74. | |||

Keys carry five scopes at read, read_write or none, ip:ADDR and expires limits, can be disabled, reset and removed by API, and self-generated Ed25519 or RSA keys keep the private half off Deribit. The HTTP client_credentials example passes client_secret in the query string, a documented option, so 10 off (20 of 30). trade:read and wallet:none give read-only and no-withdrawal keys and the 5 August 2025 release stopped account:read keys reading other keys' secrets; no per-order confirmation and the address allow-list article was unreadable (16 of 20). The API returns no untrusted content (10). private/list_api_keys, the transaction log and order history let an operator see what a key did, but no per-key call log was found (8 of 15). A HackerOne bug bounty per the support article title and HackerOne's customer story, neither page read first-hand (insights.deribit.com/bug-bounty answered 403), a VARA licence, and no security.txt on www.deribit.com (8 of 20).

Graded 59 C methodology v0.7
Fix list 21 items, the biggest gain first
Everything this grade says the listing lacks, from the reasons above, the checklist, the provenance checks, the deductions, what we couldn't check and what the review panel asked for, with the steps, ready to paste into a coding agent working on Deribit. A fix counts at the next check, once it's public.
You're lucky. As part of the beta, your first month is free.
What we couldn't check
- unchecked: the fee schedule, the terms of service, the privacy policy, the restricted-jurisdictions list and the bug bounty article on support.deribit.com, which answered 403 to our reader (its robots.txt allows articles). Fees and countries are recorded from Deribit's own posts and a search snippet, with the lowest tier absent.
- unchecked: the status page. status.deribit.com did not resolve on 3 November 2026; third-party trackers describe one. Reliability scores it absent.
- unchecked: the HackerOne programme page and insights.deribit.com/bug-bounty (403). The programme is scored from the support article title and HackerOne's customer story, both seen only as search results.
- firstReleased is 21 January 2020, the oldest entry in the JSON-RPC changelog. Deribit itself launched in 2016 per The Block, and the GitHub organisation dates from 26 July 2016; no first-hand launch date was read.
- Judgement call, no deduction. The changelog records breaking changes without a stated notice period (the
statefield on 13 January 2026,user.changeson 15 September 2026), but the docs keep an upcoming branch that previews the next release, which is a form of notice; whether each change appeared there before release wasn't checked. - The changelog entry dated 05.11.2026 describes a release two days after this check. Recorded as the next release, not as shipped.
- Which entity an agent contracts with depends on the client type (Deribit FZE for institutional and qualified investors, DRB Panama Inc. for retail) per Deribit's post of 29 November 2024; whether that split changed after the Coinbase acquisition wasn't established.
- Our own products. It doesn't do LocalGhost's or letme's job. Graded the normal way.
- Not coinbase-mcp or coinbase-advanced-trade. Deribit is Coinbase's derivatives exchange with its own API, accounts and keys.
