ByBit Unmatched IP Error

#10010: Unmatched IP - Please check your API key's bound IP addresses.

TL:DR; Use an IP service to get your addresses and bind them to your ByBit API credentials.
You may need to edit your API keys to add them, or change them if these change over time*.

ByBit and may other exchanges have begun securing their API credentials with IP addresses.

IP (Internet Protocol) Addresses are the public numbers that your computer uses for communication.

There are many ways to find out how your machine is publicly visible (e.g. https://ipify.org)

Depending on your ISP (Internet Service Provider), there are 2 versions of these numbers: IPv4, IPv6

Not all exchanges support both versions.

However, if they do, your computer can use either at any point for communicating with the exchange.When supported, binding both of these addresses with prevent issues - such as your machine choosing to flip-flop.

* Generally IP addresses for residential customers are dynamic and can change at any time.

For example, as long as your modem is powered on and actively operating, it can maintain the lease of the IP address given from your ISP. However, an event such as a power outage, or other events limiting the modems activity, could cause lease lapse and a new IP address being obtained.
