User Data Stream with listenKey will be deprecated

[thlsr]

Binance will be deprecating the User Data Stream on April 21, their recomendation is to move to the Websocket API, so I just wanted to raise this flag and ask if we have any intention of going in that direction.

Hello @thlsr,

Thanks for reporting it.

Yes, we're aware of it and in touch with Binance.

They don't have a date yet for the upgrade but we're a bit worried because this will force spot users to use ed25519 keys instead of hmac/rsa so we will probably wait a bit until rolling out this upgrade.

[thlsr]

understood and thank you for the quick response!

Good news! See https://developers.binance.com/docs/binance-spot-api-docs/CHANGELOG#2025-04-29

subscribing to User Data Stream in WebSocket API will be possible with any API key type before listenKeys are removed.
