What Is Beast

It is as smooth as CEX and as reliable as DEX. It has massive liquidity and high composability. It trades at lightning speed, universal full-position margin, and a customizable, user-friendly trading interface. It provides traders with secure and transparent contract transactions, creating a unique decentralized contract trading experience. beast unleashes the performance and availability of centralized competitors — on-chain and always self-hosted.

Beast Vision

Starting from the BTC ecosystem, we are determined to build an innovative Web3.0 decentralized contract trading platform.

Beast Implementation Technology — Hybrid Order Book AMM Design

Introduction

Beast’s exchange model integrates a fully on-chain trading venue and risk engine at the protocol level, as well as a top-level off-chain sorter to form a hybrid order book — AMM DEX. The on-chain trading and risk engine contain beast’s core products, including spot and perpetual contract markets.

The sorter acts as a high-performance order book, matching inbound orders input to the protocol layer with extremely low latency.Beast’s on-chain clearing house acts as a hub, integrating perpetual and spot markets, collateral and risk calculations into an integrated system.

Advantages

Each component of the beast trading stack is merged into a powerful on-chain trading platform. The limitations of the isolated DEX model popular in existing DeFi protocols are minimized, while their advantages are amplified in a single trading venue. The resulting hybrid order book-AMM DEX maximizes advantages in performance, flexible liquidity expression, and a diverse product suite.
