Classic

Classic (a.k.a. "OG") is the legacy ShapeShift crypto swap interface at classic.shapeshift.com, now redirecting to og.shapeshift.com. ShapeShift is a self-custody, multichain crypto platform and DEX aggregator. Its Public API (api.shapeshift.com) exposes supported assets and chains (identified with CAIP-19/CAIP-2), indicative swap rates and executable swap quotes, swap-status tracking, and an affiliate/partner program authenticated with Sign-In With Ethereum (EIP-4361, returning a JWT bearer token). Surfaced as a portfolio company of Pantera Capital and enriched into the API Evangelist network.

Classic publishes 5 APIs on the APIs.io network, including Affiliate API, Auth API, Supported Assets API, and 2 more. Tagged areas include Company, Crypto, Cryptocurrency, DEX Aggregator, and Swaps.

Classic’s developer surface includes documentation, API reference, engineering blog, support, authentication, and 19 more developer resources.

Regulatory Posture applies to this provider. Its tags matched the Payments regime, so Regulatory Posture carries 15 points of the composite. If this regime is wrong for your business, say so on your provider repo — the applicability map is public and we will correct it.

The six quality facets above are damped to 85 points between them, because the conditional facet above carries the other 15. That is why each facet's contribution is shown against a damped maximum: raising a quality facet moves the composite by 85% of its nominal weight, not 100%. The full arithmetic is at apis.io/rating/.

Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/classic: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts. Want it done for you? Prioritized profiling — $2,500 →
