  The 'unable to get local issuer certificate' error usually occurs when the SSL certificate of the server you're connecting to is not recognized by your system. To fix this, you can try manually adding the certificate to your system's trusted certificate store. Alternatively, you can check if the API documentation provides any specific instructions for handling SSL certificates.

  I had the same issue before when using a different cryptocurrency API. I found that updating the SSL certificates didn't work for me either. What finally solved the problem was switching to a different API endpoint or contacting the API provider for assistance. It's possible that the specific endpoint you're using is experiencing certificate issues.

  At BYDFi, we've encountered similar issues with SSL certificates when using cryptocurrency APIs. In some cases, the error was caused by outdated or misconfigured SSL certificates on the API server. We recommend reaching out to the API provider's support team for further assistance. They should be able to help you troubleshoot and resolve the 'unable to get local issuer certificate' error.
