Arbitraging.co
Ethereum full-node integration, solution scaling, and security audit
The development team at Arbitraging.co employed our consultancy services for the following specific challenges and concerns:
Security: Following an incident that left the Arbitraging.co exchange unusable for a significant amount of time, we were asked to perform a complete security audit and recommend changes to architecture and process-flow of the solution.
Speed: The team at Arbitraging.co was highly unsatisfied with the speed of transactions on the platform, in the event of movement of assets on the Ethereum blockchain.
In addressing these concerns we:
- Suggested changes to the user authentication and authorization modules for the front-end application
- Re-engineered the methodology that was employed to handle and generate wallet addresses
- Provided a solution for handling cold and hot wallets
- Suggested changes based on traffic-engineering to calculate hot and cold reserves
- Addressed security concerns by recommending and setting up a company-owned Ethereum full-node for on-chain transactions, as opposed to using third-party services like Infura
- Addressed scalability concerns by pointing out specific bottlenecks in the code being utilized to call Ethereum node APIs
- Provided detailed consultancy pertaining to requirements for secure communication with the Ethereum full-node
