Hydro Protocol API is now on Github

Hydro is a network layer protocol for high performance decentralized exchanges and marketplaces with built-in incentives for coordination.

As Hydro protocol is open source and publicly available on Github now, we would like to invite you to check it out. Everyone is welcome to take the code and run with it. We are also very excited to announce that the Developers Bounty Program launches today. We look forward to having talented developers contribute to open source and to federated liquidity pool on the top of the Hydro protocol.

Developers Bounty Program

Rules:

Accepted Pull Request: reward 500 HOT tokens
Watch/Star/Fork: reward 10 HOT tokens for each

The rewards will be sent out by the end of every month.

The Hydro Team and our community are devoted to the development of the Hydro protocol, growing the network, supporting developers build their decentralized relayers on top of the hydro protocol. Step by step, we will create a truly valuable network together.

For those interested in starting their own Hydro Protocol based relayer (which we are referring to as “Hydro Node”), we are now accepting Hydro Node 1.0 applications. The open-source code repositories will empower singular Hydro Node to quickly develop their own high-functioning decentralized relayers with liquidity sharing capabilities utilizing the Hydro Protocol. You can read more about “Hydro Node” here. DDEX is the first hybrid decentralized relayer on top of Hydro. It has started open beta testing since January 9, 2018.

Hydro is a network layer protocol for high performance decentralized exchanges and marketplaces with built-in incentives for coordination. Hydro utilizes’Federated Liquidity Pools’ (FLP) to address the issue of liquidity sharing among various decentralized exchanges.
