  If you're looking for a lightweight option, you might want to check out 'websocket-client'. It's a simple and easy-to-use library that allows you to connect to a websocket server and receive real-time data. While it doesn't have built-in support for cryptocurrency exchanges, you can use it to establish a connection and then implement your own logic to handle the data. It's a good choice if you prefer more control over the implementation.
