# GET /private/create_deposit_address

`GET /private/create_deposit_address`

Creates a new deposit address for the specified currency. Each currency can have multiple deposit addresses. Use this method to generate a new address for receiving deposits.

**Note:**

For Bitcoin, a new address can be generated every 24 hours.

For ERC20, Solana and XRP only one address can be generated.

**Note:**

If an ERC20 address is generated, this address will be automatically added for every asset that uses ERC20 addresses.
