Here is my update for the month of November 2019.

Tutorials

Lisk DEX

Finished DEX HTTP module which allows users to browse the decentralized order book with filtering and pagination. Also added support for some GDAX endpoints to make it easier to integrate with existing platforms/UIs.

More thorough testing of the DEX.

Resolved an issue with syncing to make order processing across both chains fully deterministic even if nodes are late.

Re-broadcast signatures for pending multisig transactions on an interval if the underlying multisig transaction did not go through. This makes the DEX more resilient to network instability.

Improved DEX config.

Minor change to the DEX protocol: Renamed ‘cancel’ order to ‘close’ — This aligns more closely with trading terminology “To close the position”.

Minor fixes related to close order in case the user passes invalid parameters.

Added a minimum order size; if an order is too small to adequately cover blockchain transaction fees on either chain, then it will be refunded on the current chain (assuming that the order is large enough to cover the refund transaction).

Other work

Last month I joined a project started by savetheworld delegate called Leasehold. It’s a Lisk sidechain backed by income from real estate. We plan to do the ITO on Lisk using a DEX in January.

We plan to use our experience in this ITO to help other projects launch their own Lisk sidechain with the DEX. We’re currently in discussion with some other projects. Feel free to contact me (my email address is on my GitHub) if you need help launching your own sidechain on Lisk.
