Summary

Cryptocurrencies come in many forms and provide their own "nodes" to interact with their given networks. While their implementations often provide similar functionalities, the exact process for completing transactions may be significantly different. In addition to this, there are many tasks involved with maintaining each of these nodes. Updating protocol versions, handling API changes, and more can become cumbersome and difficult to keep up with as the technological landscape shifts in a quickly evolving industry.

This Technology Specification aims to provide a blueprint for common infrastructure that can be shared and utilized by exchanges and wallets securely and reliably. A common implementation that has been reviewed and validated across both the community along with those using it improves the overall experience for the end user, developers, as well as exchange/wallet creators.

Core Concepts

  • Integration never receives or maintains private keys
  • 2-Way encrypted communication with signing agent
  • Common request/callback formatting for transactions
  • Containerized output that can be deployed in most environments securely
  • Restricted network output to only the necessary ports and destinations defined by the currencies specification
  • Signing agent to handle formatting and signing of transactions

Open Discussion Points

  • 2-Way Protocol? MQTT? TCP? FIX? Interledger?
  • List of required requests and their responses (schema)
  • Data encoding... Cap'n Proto? Protobuf?
  • Minimum requirements for node integration? Expectations and assumptions that we will make for all implementations?
  • Implementation review process?
  • Installation process? git? centralized repo? both?
  • Handling of tokens for platforms such as Ethereum, NEO, EOS, etc.
  • Handling of environment security
  • Kubernetes implementation for coordinating clusters of coins integrated with the CIS
