@Tristan0x

We're hiring a Staff Rust Engineer! You'll get to work with our tech lead who is arguably the best systems engineer I've worked with in my life, as well as devs who cut their teeth at Optiver, IMC and Kraken Minimum 7 years programming experience, 4 years with Rust 🦀

Seraphim messaged me last week asking how to set up a funding arb bot between @Bulletxyz and @PhoenixTrade . I sent him our docs and some Rust starter code and voila within a week he's live and trading with zero handholding. If your BD guy can algo trade, anyone can 👏

It's happening

It's genuinely great to finally see a legitimization of blockchain tech for the next generation of financial markets infrastructure, and a move away from this industry being relegated to memecoin trading. Having met many tradfi people over the years, I think attitudes have totally shifted from just a few years ago compared to today in terms of curiosity and openness to DeFi. I have to commend folks like Mr Sprecher for having an open mind and betting on the new wave of founders. Both sides have a lot to learn from each other!

One of the major uphill battles for new exchanges is getting robust maker liquidity. We've been in private beta with the express intent of letting people test @Bulletxyz in it's primitive form, warts and all, and we've heard the complaints about liquidity loud and clear. That's why I'm very happy to see the BD and tech work paying off with majors liquidity now at $800k notional per side. This is thanks to really comprehensive full Rust API stack now live, and a few early market makers integrating and going live with quotes on mainnet. Expect this to only improve in the coming weeks now that the foundations are laid. Feedback has been encouraging that our APIs have been an absolute breeze to integrate (this took a lot of intentional engineering work), and that performance of the matching engine has been holding up well. If you're a DeFi native market maker (CeFi works too) we'd love to chat to get you onboarded. The exchange has been designed from the ground up to make liquidity provisioning on CLOBs a piece of cake.
