Retrieving live data for markets and wallets with R6 classes

This section will explain how to create a simple requester, which is an object that requests external information (from an API over the internet in this case). We will also develop our exchange and wallet infrastructure.

Creating a very simple requester to isolate API calls

Now, we will focus on how we actually retrieve live data. This functionality will also be implemented using R6 classes, as the interactions can be complex. First of all, we create a simple Requester class that contains the logic to retrieve data from JSON APIs found elsewhere in the internet and that will be used to get our live cryptocurrency data for wallets and markets. We don't want logic...
