3Commas now allows using RSA Keys to create signed API requests. To take advantage of this, you need to generate an RSA Key pair and register the public key on 3Commas.
RSA is known as an asymmetric cryptography algorithm that helps to create secure data flow in an insecure network. In the RSA case, you will be the only one who will possess the Private key. Thus, it adds an extra layer of security.
The RSA Key pair option is known as the "Self generated" API Key option within the 3Commas API Access Token page, and is the recommended and most secure method to connect your apps, scripts or programs to your 3Commas account!
How to create RSA key pair?
You can either generate them in the command line or using the official Binance key generator.
