Currency Market

A Platform connecting businesses with excess currency to those who need it.

This project is part of my application to join capi-money, a YC23 company that provides

an alternative source of foreign currency by finding organisations that are sending money into Senegal and therefore want XOF and are willing to trade Euros for it

This is a matching engine that:

1. Automatically pairs businesses who need EUR with those who need XOF
2. Optimizes for the best possible exchange rates
3. Handles real-time updates and matching
4. Includes risk management and compliance
5. Provides a real-time UI

Built with Next.js.

Goals

• A real-time matching algorithm
• Basic KYC/AML compliance built in
• Queuing system for currency requests
• Rate negotiations

Getting Started

Run the backend server
