CWE	CWE-798: Use of Hard-coded Credentials
OWASP	A07:2021 - Identification and Authentication Failures
Confidence Level	Low
Impact Level	Medium
Likelihood Level	Low

Description#

The code contains a hard-coded Bittrex API secret key, which exposes sensitive credentials directly in the source code. Storing secrets this way makes them easily accessible to anyone with access to the codebase.

Impact#

If an attacker obtains the hard-coded secret key, they could gain unauthorized access to your Bittrex account, potentially leading to financial loss, unauthorized transactions, or data breaches. This also increases the risk of secrets being leaked if the code is shared or published.
