Create system currencies
The SDK.finance system supports multicurrency. You are able to create any currency you need – it can be real currency or any objects which you are going to count in your e-wallet platform like points, coins, bonuses etc.
The creation of currency is connected with the creation of issuers. This logic is used to be able to connect the same currency to different issuers.
Currency can be created through API or using the UI provided out of the box.
