  2. May you desire to get overall understanding of crypto industry dynamics? Pay attention to HyperQuant Cryptocurrency Index, which may work for crypto investors as a benchmark to be compared with their own portfolios.

Furthermore, there are some more valuable updates to share with you:

Order Routing Server (ORS)

We would like to introduce you the Order Routing Server, a substantial part of the HyperQuant platform, the primary aim of which is to enable effective communication of the platform with the external liquidity sources: exchanges, OTC desk services and other liquidity pools.

Highlighting the importance of this part, it is worth saying that each exchange often uses its own methods and parameters to execute the orders. Therefore, there is a need for the service which could customize all the requests for the exchanges, processing various kinds of data. To clarify, specifically the ORS acts as this service.

Trading system architecture

However, the Order Routing Server deals not with the whole range of the operations conducted by connectors, but with the private ones, for example,

  • create an order,
  • cancel an order,
  • cancel all orders.

In simple words, since a user requested, for instance, order cancelling, the data is processed by the ORS, transformed into the fitting format and sent to the exchange.

Being an essential integral part of the trading software, it also conducts measures related to the security of the transactions, and this is our next topic to cover.

*P.S. By the way, we are making continuous work on connectors creating!

API key storage

So, do you see the Auth microservice on the scheme above? It goes in the bunch with the Order Routing Server, ensuring your additional security layer! The idea is the following:

Since you received the API keys (exchange users’ API keys), you enter them into the system once for processing with the special algorithms, saving, and in return you get a special hash. The hash can be used to decrypt the keys we have saved. Note that we do not hold your hash, you are the only owner of it, that is why no one except you can decrypt your private keys.

Stay tuned for more project news!
