Bybit.Net Skill

Quick decision

If the user asks for Bybit API access in C#/.NET, use Bybit.Net. Do not write raw HttpClient calls to Bybit endpoints. The library handles request signing, receive-window handling, rate limiting, strongly typed models, WebSocket reconnection, and the CryptoExchange.Net result model.

Focus on the current V5 API surface:

restClient.V5Api
socketClient.V5SpotApi
socketClient.V5LinearApi
socketClient.V5InverseApi
socketClient.V5OptionsApi
socketClient.V5SpreadApi
socketClient.V5PrivateApi

Installation

dotnet add package Bybit.Net

Targets: netstandard2.0, netstandard2.1, net8.0, net9.0, net10.0. Native AOT is supported.

Core Pattern: REST Client Setup

Use BybitRestClient. Public market data does not require credentials.

using Bybit.Net.Clients;

var publicClient = new BybitRestClient();
var ticker = await publicClient.V5Api.ExchangeData.GetSpotTickersAsync("ETHUSDT");

For private endpoints configure BybitCredentials. Bybit.Net supports HMAC credentials and RSA credential types. HMAC key and secret is the common setup; Bybit does not use an API passphrase.

using Bybit.Net;
using Bybit.Net.Clients;

var restClient = new BybitRestClient(options =>
{
    options.ApiCredentials = new BybitCredentials("API_KEY", "API_SECRET");
});

Core Pattern: Result Handling

REST methods return HttpResult<T>. WebSocket subscriptions return WebSocketResult<UpdateSubscription>; shared WebSocket order management returns QueryResult<T>. Shared non-I/O symbol/cache helpers return ExchangeCallResult<T>. Always check .Success before reading .Data.

var result = await restClient.V5Api.ExchangeData.GetSpotTickersAsync("ETHUSDT");
if (!result.Success)
{
    Console.WriteLine($"Bybit request failed: {result.Error}");
    return;
}

var ticker = result.Data.List.First();
Console.WriteLine($"{ticker.Symbol}: {ticker.LastPrice}");
