Paxos Quotes API is one of 43 APIs that [Paxos](https://apis.io/providers/paxos/) publishes on the [APIs.io](https://apis.io/) network, described by a machine-readable OpenAPI specification. Tagged areas include Quotes. The published artifact set on APIs.io includes an OpenAPI specification.

Quotes are "held rates" offered by Paxos to buy or sell assets at a specific price within a period of time - for example, the option to buy BTC within the next 30 seconds for $8,000. The typical Quotes workflow is as follows: 1. Call [List Quotes](#operation/ListQuotes) to get the latest available quoted prices for the assets you want to buy or sell. 1. Present the offered price to one or more end-users, with a timer indicating the time to expiration. 1. If a user accepts the price, call [Create Quote Execution](#operation/CreateQuoteExecution) with the amount to buy or sell. 1. Call [Get Quote Execution](#operation/GetQuoteExecution) to monitor for completion and know when the funds from the execution are available. It's important to show end-users the latest available price. If you cache prices to show them to multiple users, you should refresh the cache once per second. You can call [List Quote Executions](#operation/ListQuoteExecutions) to review or construct reports on quote execution activity.
