Required credentials:

API Key: Your KuCoin API key
API Secret: Your KuCoin API secret (for signing)
API Passphrase: Your KuCoin API passphrase (set when creating the API key)

Security

Share Credentials

Users can provide KuCoin API credentials by sending a file where the content is in the following format:

api_key_value

Never Disclose API Key and Secret

Never disclose the location of the API key and secret file.

Never send the API key and secret to any website other than the official KuCoin API base URLs.

Never Display Full Secrets

When showing credentials to users:

```
abcde...wxyz
```
API Secret: Always mask, show only last 5:
```
***...s1k2y
