The Bridge Connecting Centralization and Decentralization

In the realm of digital asset trading, centralized exchanges (CEX) and decentralized exchanges (DEX) each possess distinct advantages yet also exhibit notable limitations.

CEX attracts users with efficient trade execution and a diverse array of financial products, but its centralized nature may pose security risks to assets. DEX, leveraging blockchain technology, grants users complete control over their assets, yet its transaction speed and user experience often fall short of meeting the demands of high-frequency traders.

BitVau's dual-system architecture ingeniously combines the strengths of CEX and DEX through innovative technical design, creating an efficient and secure trading ecosystem that provides users with a seamless experience bridging centralized and decentralized finance. The following sections detail the design philosophy and implementation path of BitVau's dual-system architecture across three dimensions: the CEX system, the DEX system and its core innovations, and seamless switching between systems.

Efficient and Professional Trading Experience

BitVau's CEX system is specifically designed for users seeking traditional trading experiences and high efficiency, aiming to deliver institutional-grade trading performance while meeting the diverse needs of retail investors. Through a high-performance technical architecture, a rich array of trading products, and advanced features, the BitVau CEX system provides users with a fast, convenient, and fully-featured trading environment.

High-Throughput Matching Engine

BitVau CEX integrates a high-throughput matching engine capable of handling millions of transactions per second (TPS). This technical advantage ensures instant order execution, delivering low-latency trading even during market volatility or high-frequency trading scenarios. The engine employs an advanced distributed architecture, leveraging multi-node parallel processing and load balancing to maximize system stability and reliability. Additionally, the engine supports multiple order types (such as limit orders, market orders, stop-loss orders, etc.) to accommodate diverse trading strategies.

Fiat Gateway

To lower the barrier for users entering digital asset trading, the BitVau CEX system integrates a built-in fiat gateway supporting direct deposits, withdrawals, and trading in multiple fiat currencies (such as Euro EUR, US Dollar USD).

Users can swiftly convert fiat currency into digital assets via bank transfers, credit cards, or other payment methods, or redeem trading profits into fiat for withdrawal to bank accounts. The gateway collaborates with multiple global payment service providers to ensure efficient transaction processes compliant with local regulatory requirements.

Furthermore, BitVau optimizes its foreign exchange mechanism to reduce conversion costs between fiat and cryptocurrencies, offering users more competitive exchange rates.

The BitVau CEX system offers a full suite of derivative trading products, including perpetual contracts and options contracts, catering to users' diverse needs for risk management and investment growth. Perpetual contracts, with their flexibility and high leverage, suit traders seeking high returns;

options contracts provide diversified hedging tools for users with lower risk tolerance. The platform supports derivatives trading across multiple asset classes, covering cryptocurrencies (e.g., Bitcoin, Ethereum), forex pairs (e.g., USD/EUR), and precious metals (e.g., gold, silver), delivering a one-stop investment solution.
