## Frequently Asked Questions

Which API family should I start with?

Pick the product you're integrating: Trading for OTC execution, GalaxyOne for Prime Services, Staking for delegation and rewards, or DeFi for onchain execution.

Do the families share authentication and conventions?

Each family carries its own Getting Started, Authentication, Core Concepts, Errors, Rate Limits, and Idempotency pages so you can integrate against one without cross-referencing the others.
