API

Ventuals is built on Hyperliquid, so you can interact with any asset listed on Ventuals directly through the Hyperliquid API. All core functionality—market data, order placement, order management, account queries, and position tracking—is available via the Hyperliquid API.

When interacting with Hyperliquid's API, you may need to specify dex: "vntls" in your queries, or filter for coins whose ticker symbols are prefixed with vntls: (e.g., vntls:vOAI, vntls:vSPACEX).

The key steps are:

1. Connect to the API — Via HTTP or websockets

2. Fetch data — Use the /info endpoint to fetch information about markets and specific users.

3. Place and manage orders — Use the /exchange endpoint to place, cancel, and modify orders.

4. Subscribe to real-time data streams — Use the websocket endpoint to receive real-time updates about markets and specific users
