• Hi - just reopening the issue. my aiohttp is the latest version. But I am wondering if it is a compatibility issue with Python 3.10? I am recently trying to start trading on gateio, but I can't seem to get off the first step, no matter what call I make, either public or private, I get similar error thrown:

gate_exchange = ccxtpro.gateio()

markets = gate_exchange.load_markets()

exception thrown: gateio GET https://api.gateio.ws/api/v4/spot/currencies
Request: GET https://api.gateio.ws/api/v4/spot/currencies None None
raise ClientConnectorSSLError(req.connection_key, exc) from exc
aiohttp.client_exceptions.ClientConnectorSSLError: Cannot connect to host api.gateio.ws:443 ssl:default [[SSL: WRONG_VERSION_NUMBER] wrong version number (_ssl.c:997)]

@pickmone what is your version of urllib3 ?

[pickmone]

1.26.7

[kroitor]

@pickmone does it solve the issue if you downgrade it to 1.26.2 ?

[pickmone]

just tried. still same exception thrown :(

[kroitor]

@pickmone do you use any kind of proxies? Or do you have proxy settings on your environment variables?

[pickmone]

nope, I don't use any of that

[pickmone]

seems to be only gate io. all others I tried are fine (ftx, binance, okex, kucoin, bitfinex). I m quite stumped.

[pickmone]

found the issue. apparently an issue with my IP address.

thanks

Hey - I had to use VPN. so now I just use VPN when accessing gate.

The error only affect perp markets such as BTC/USD:BTC and ETH/USDT:USDT but not BTC/USDT and ETH/USDT.
