Coinbase BadRequest https://api.coinbase.com/v2/exchange-rates

See original GitHub issue

This just happened even though I did not change any of my code. All I am calling is a fetchbalance(). I did upgrade to the latest ccxt version 1.41.81 but it didn’t fix the issue.

vmware@ubuntu20041a:~/extra$ python3 ccoinbase.py

The endpoint for currencies is broken… Doesn’t work for me either.

Try this with curl or with your browser: curl https://api.coinbase.com/v2/exchange-rates

Docs: https://developers.coinbase.com/api/v2#exchange-rates

If it does not work for you without CCXT, then this is not an issue inside CCXT – looks like a problem at Coinbase or smth.
