Bullish is an institutional digital-asset exchange and custodian operating a regulated spot, perpetual, dated-futures and options venue with an integrated automated market maker, deterministic central limit order book matching, and qualified custody. It publishes a genuinely machine-readable API estate: a 79-operation OpenAPI 3.0.3 Trading API covering markets, orders, trades, AMM instructions, derivatives positions, portfolio-margin simulation, OTC and inter-dealer-broker booking, custody deposits and withdrawals, and history; six AsyncAPI 3.0.0 WebSocket documents for order book, trades, ticks, auction, index and private account data; and a FIX 4.2/5.0 order-entry and drop-copy surface. Authentication is JWT bearer minted from a client-signed ECDSA R1 or HMAC login rather than OAuth. Bullish is licensed or registered with the Gibraltar Financial Services Commission, BaFin (MiCA CASP and qualified crypto custodian), the Hong Kong SFC, FinCEN and NYDFS, and lists on the NYSE as BLSH.
