Lib.rs

A open source Rust high performance cryptocurrency trading API with support for multiple exchanges and language wrappers. Focused in safety, correctness and speed.

Project goals

This is an ambitious project that seeks to create a new industry standard API implementation for secure, correct and high performance cryptocurrency trading. It is initially focused on spot exchanges as a method to define how initial data structures and project architecture should be to allow zero cost abstractions around the exchanges' peculiarities. So initial project goals are:

• Based on Rust, memory safe by default.
• Support for websockets and user defined networking.
• Thin layer wrappers for Java, C#, Python and Node.js
• Easy to add support for additional exchanges.
• Open-source only, now and forever.

Future goals are:

• Support for futures trading
• Support for options trading
• WASM compilation allowing it to be embedded in static web pages

Warning: the project is still in development and a lot of breaking changes are being made.
