PROVEN PROCESS
Our Delivery Methodology
Our structured, four-phase approach ensures your institutional FIX adapter is delivered on time, within spec, and ready for production trading. We focus on predictable outcomes, not just code.
01
Discovery & Protocol Mapping
We conduct a deep technical analysis of your existing FIX workflow and target DEX (e.g., Uniswap V3, dYdX, GMX). We map FIX tags to on-chain functions, define slippage models, and establish a formal specification document for sign-off.

Requirements Locked
02
Secure Adapter Development
Development of the core adapter logic in Go or Rust, implementing FIX session management, order routing, and blockchain RPC integration. All code follows financial-grade security practices, including unit and integration tests for every FIX message type.
