New Centralized Exchange - grin.exchange

I’d like to hear the views of other council members regarding the funding of exchange work. As I understand, funding exchange listings are frowned upon but this seems different to me as it would be a grin only exchange to support its distribution.

I would be in favor or funding this if they can get a POC working. I don’t personally see funding a community run exchange to be against the spirit of Grin and it’s work that could potentially be re-used or forked by anyone who wants to run a Grin exchange themselves.1

Ok I’ll get a POC up and we can talk funding later.

Or you may use the same withdraw process of the https://gaeapool.com/ .

user clicks on withdraw → put amount → it immediately generates the slatepack → paste that slatepack in the wallet → then our wallet will generate another code → paste that code in the web to confirm, that’s it.

Anyways, I really like how tradeogre managed things for grin. Unfortunately, it’s not open source, I hope we could fund if someone can public the source code for grin exchange.

This one will be open source so we can build it exactly how we want it and it can last forever.

That’d be a DEX. Roadmap is CEX first.

Might try and use the deposit/withdraw code from here.

I finished the most minimalistic version of this exchange so we can start trading on this via SQL commands. Unfortunately, I am inbetween leases/ homes for the next couple weeks so I can’t host the server until I have a permanent residence. I will report back here when I have a place to host from.

Thanks for the effort, just did a quick look, I will look further into it later.

Quick check: Maybe you should use DECIMAL instead of INT in balaces table

Good catch. I pushed a commit to update that: update balance from int to decimal · k26dr/grin-exchange@d4efc23 · GitHub
