@piertoni Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement websocket==8.1 (from versions: 0.2.1) No matching distribution found for websocket==8.1 — Mustafa Güngör, Sep 16 '20 at 10:53
I was pointing out the grammar of pip (using `=='). If it is not found maybe is not available for your platform (what are you using? Windows? I am using linux and I can install it with pip). Also availability depends on your python version. — piertoni, Sep 16 '20 at 10:57
Ah, simple! You did a typo, pay attention: you have to use `websockets`, not `websocket` — piertoni, Sep 16 '20 at 11:04
There is an older package on PyPI called "websocket". You want "websockets", and the syntax is `==` not ` `. — Iguananaut, Sep 16 '20 at 11:10
@Iguananaut I tried that too, but it says **ERROR: Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement websockets==8.1 (from versions: 1.0, 2.0, 2.1, 2.2, 2.3, 2.4, 2.5, 2.6, 2.7, 3.0, 3.1, 3.2, 3.3, 3.4, 4.0, 4.0.1, 5.0, 5.0.1, 6.0, 7.0, 8.0, 8.0.1, 8.0.2) ERROR: No matching distribution found for websockets==8.1** — Mustafa Güngör, Sep 16 '20 at 11:16
But there is 8.1 on windows https://pypi.org/project/websockets/#files @piertoni — Mustafa Güngör, Sep 16 '20 at 11:17
Try downloading manually and install it providing the path to the file, like: `pip install websockets-8.1-cp36-cp36m-win_amd64.whl` — piertoni, Sep 16 '20 at 11:22
i guess needs > python 3.6.1 , thanks for effort @piertoni , if you write that i can accept as answer — Mustafa Güngör, Sep 16 '20 at 11:33

You should replace websocket with websockets:

pip install websockets==8.1

what is your OS ? – Mustafa Güngör Sep 16 '20 at 11:11
Why you need such specific version? Is there a particular reason? – piertoni Sep 16 '20 at 11:12
@piertoni yeah https://pypi.org/project/crypto-com-client/#files for this project, needs 8.1 – Mustafa Güngör Sep 16 '20 at 11:14
@SacmaŞeyler Ubuntu. But I think you need try `pip3 install websockets==8.1` – Dmitry Leiko Sep 16 '20 at 11:39
@SacmaŞeyler Also I think you need update python version`websockets requires Python ≥ 3.6.1` – Dmitry Leiko Sep 16 '20 at 11:45
