Zaif API Proxy is a Chrome add-on developed by f0reach that allows users to place orders on the Zaif cryptocurrency exchange through an API. This tool is designed to overcome the sluggishness often experienced when placing orders directly on the Zaif website. By using the API, users can enjoy faster and more efficient order placement.

To get started, users need to install the Zaif API Proxy add-on and create an API key through their Zaif account settings. It is important to check the "trade" permission when generating the API key. The key and secret will be displayed, which should be kept confidential as they are similar to a password for conducting transactions.

Once the add-on is installed and the API key is obtained, users can open the trading interface on Zaif. A "Set Keys" button will appear in the blue bar at the top of the screen. Clicking on this button allows users to enter the previously obtained key and secret.

Trading can be conducted using the familiar form on the Zaif website, while order cancellation can be done by clicking on the "A" button next to the regular cancellation button. For limit changes, users should continue to use the existing buttons.

Overall, Zaif API Proxy offers a convenient solution for users who want to streamline their order placement on the Zaif exchange. It is a free add-on that enhances the trading experience by leveraging the power of the Zaif API.
