1. Create

curl -X POST -d @file.txt https://flyp.me/api/v1/order/new --header "Content-Type:application/json"

file.txt:

{
  "order": {
    "from_currency": "LTC",
    "to_currency": "ZEC",
    "ordered_amount": "0.01"
  }
}

Notes:

On the initial request invoiced_amount can also be specified instead of ordered_amount.

Response will always include based with values `INVOICED` or `ORDERED` respectively.

You can optionally specify destination and refund_address on the request.

You can optionally specify referral_code on the request. Note you will need to use a validated referral code or the order will fail.

result.txt:

  "order": {
    "uuid": "eeeeb105-d30d-43f1-bbb8-a9f8a237acf5",
