Haskoin API rate limits: No

Bitgo API rate limits: https://app.bitgo.com/docs/#section/Rate-Limiting (10 requests/second)

### Setting Headers for public endpoints

If you plan on using the publicly accessible endpoints listed below, ensure that you add a valid 'x-client-id' to all requests

- https://gateway.liquify.com/chain/thorchain_midgard
- https://api.haskoin.com (BTC/BCH/LTC)
- https://gateway.liquify.com/chain/thorchain_api

Example

```typescript
import cosmosclient from '@cosmos-client/core'
import axios from 'axios'
import { register9Rheader } from '@xchainjs/xchain-util'

register9Rheader(axios)
register9Rheader(cosmosclient.config.globalAxios)
```

For a complete example please see this [test](https://github.com/xchainjs/xchainjs-lib/blob/master/packages/xchain-thorchain-amm/__e2e__/wallet.e2e.ts)

### UtxoOnlineDataProviders

## default providers

Creating a no-arg BCH Client will default to the following settings:

```typescript
defaultBCHParams: UtxoClientParams = {
  network: Network.Mainnet,
  phrase: '',
  explorerProviders: explorerProviders,
  dataProviders: [HaskoinDataProviders],
  rootDerivationPaths: {
    [Network.Mainnet]: `m/44'/145'/0'/0/`,
    [Network.Testnet]: `m/44'/1'/0'/0/`,
    [Network.Stagenet]: `m/44'/145'/0'/0/`,
  },
  feeBounds: {
    lower: LOWER_FEE_BOUND,
    upper: UPPER_FEE_BOUND,
  },
}
```

Note: Haskoin is the default online data provider (to fetch realtime utxos, balances, etc)
