Aquarius- The exchange you’ve been searching for
Tall claims, but can we deliver? Read on.
In our previous blog we spoke about why professional traders aren’t participants in the crypto industry, despite volatility that would make their hearts sing. In case you don’t want to go back and read it, here’s a quick summary:
- Exorbitant trading fees that are well over that of traditional Forex markets
- Ill-equipped trading platforms that do not have the throughput or capacity to handle heavy order submission loads during times of high market volatility
- Unsophisticated user interfaces lacking tools essential to professional traders
The Aquarius Exchange was built with one goal in mind- to introduce an institutional grade trading infrastructure to the crypto industry. But what exactly is ‘institutional grade’?
The order matching engine is the heart of any trading platform. Our matching engine is “deep tech” that has evolved over a span of more than 20 years. It was developed in various configurations for one of the world’s largest exchanges and other leading financial institutions.
With capacity and throughput scalable in excess of 100M tps with the appropriate physical infrastructure, our engine is the fastest matching engine in existence today. This is an order of magnitude greater than the currently accepted fastest engine in the crypto-industry which has a capacity of 1.4M tps (as of 2018). The internal latency of the engine is a lightening 10 nano-seconds. Need we say more?
We run our exchange in multiple dedicated data centres with security of the highest order. We do not share resources with any other organization. We use real hardware (no virtual machines) dedicated to different tasks and have enhanced real time data replication across the multiple data centres. Every segment of our networks are independently secured with a zero trust model. Our security is delivered by the best minds in the business- talent with military cyber-security expertise.
Our low and consistent latency, fast matching engine and continuous network monitoring by a dedicated engineering team ensures 99.99% uptime, 365/24*7.
The Aquarius trading platform has been designed by a team of professional Forex traders and is replete with every functionality that one would need. That’s a blog in itself. We’ll get around to posting it soon.
But wait, we have left the best for last. If you’re not convinced with just the tech, would ‘zero transaction fees’ do it for you? We function on a flat monthly membership fee. As a professional trader, here’s what you would pay on the least expensive crypto exchange out there versus Aquarius.
