Exchange Types

Every crypto exchange architecture we build.

Centralised, decentralised, hybrid, OTC, derivatives — we’ve built across every exchange model. We recommend the right architecture for your regulatory environment, target market, and technical constraints.

🔀

Hybrid Crypto Exchange

The best of both worlds — centralised order-book performance with non-custodial, on-chain settlement. Users keep custody of funds; the exchange delivers sub-second trade execution.

🏦

Centralised Exchange (CEX)

Full-featured CEX with order book engine, matching engine, trading pairs, user KYC/AML, admin panel, and hot/cold wallet management. Built for regulated markets.

🔗

Decentralised Exchange (DEX)

AMM-based DEX with liquidity pools, yield farming, and swap interfaces. Smart contract-governed, non-custodial trading on Ethereum, Polygon, BNB Chain, or Solana.

📊

Crypto Derivatives Exchange

Perpetuals, futures, and options trading platforms with leverage mechanics, funding rate systems, and liquidation engines. Targeted at sophisticated trading infrastructure buyers.

🤝

OTC Crypto Exchange

Over-the-counter trading desks for large block orders. RFQ-based pricing, escrow settlement, counterparty management, and institutional-grade reporting.

📱

Crypto Exchange App

Mobile-first crypto exchange applications for iOS and Android. Real-time order books, push notifications, biometric auth, and full feature parity with the web platform.

Our Process

How we build your crypto exchange platform.

01

Exchange architecture review

We map your exchange model: CEX, DEX, or hybrid. Trading pairs, custody model, regulatory jurisdiction, liquidity strategy, and target throughput. We ask the questions your previous agency skipped.

02

Architecture proposal & fixed quote

Full system design: matching engine, smart contracts, wallet architecture, compliance stack, and admin tooling. Fixed-scope quote before any code is written.

03

Modular build in sprints

We build layer by layer — matching engine first, then settlement, then frontend. Weekly demos with live trading on testnet. You see real order flow before the project ends.

04

Security audit, launch & support

Smart contract audit, penetration testing on the API layer, mainnet deployment, and post-launch monitoring. We stay on retainer for the first 60 days after go-live.

FAQ

Questions about crypto exchange development.

A centralised exchange (CEX) holds user funds in custodial wallets managed by the company. A hybrid crypto exchange combines a centralised order-book matching engine for speed with non-custodial, on-chain settlement — users retain control of their private keys. The hybrid model reduces the risk of exchange hacks while maintaining CEX-level performance.
A focused centralised or hybrid exchange takes 16–24 weeks depending on feature scope. A DEX with custom AMM logic is typically 10–16 weeks. OTC desk and derivatives modules add 4–8 weeks on top. We scope every project in detail and provide a fixed timeline before development begins.
We build the full stack: matching engine, order book WebSocket feeds, smart contract settlement (for DEX/hybrid), custody wallet infrastructure, KYC/AML compliance layer, trading dashboard, admin tools, and mobile apps. Not just the frontend — the entire trading infrastructure.
Yes. We integrate third-party KYC/AML providers (Sumsub, Onfido, Jumio) into the user onboarding flow, configure risk-scoring engines, and set up transaction monitoring. We do not provide legal advice, but we build the technical compliance infrastructure your lawyers and regulators expect.
Yes. We build React Native or Flutter mobile apps with full feature parity: real-time order books, charting, notifications, biometric authentication, and full API connectivity to the exchange backend.
For CEX builds, we integrate market-maker APIs and liquidity aggregators during development. For DEX builds, we design the initial liquidity bootstrapping mechanics (LBP, TWAP, or manual LP seeding). Liquidity strategy is a key topic in our discovery call — we guide you through the options for your launch stage.
