I just tried running the tests and vignettes in the package and was hit with a large number of errors. It seems that there is some sort of problem with the web API:

$ curl -I https://c-cex.com/t/pairs.json

The following is the response I received from the exchange's support:

"Yes, it's temporary. We will remove limitations soon."

I'll keep track and send a note when it's removed.

The same again. All API-calls rejected.
