FalconX Architecture Research Dossier
This dossier collects FalconX-oriented architecture research and interview-preparation material. It is intentionally separate from the architecture portfolio: this is a public-evidence trading-platform research track, not a personal ownership claim.
FalconX Ecosystem
FalconX is analyzed as a client-facing institutional digital asset prime brokerage and execution platform. Public evidence supports REST, WebSocket, and FIX connectivity; RFQ/RFS trading workflows; account/reporting APIs; custody and financing product surfaces; DMA/off-exchange settlement products; and expansion into derivatives/options and ETP/ETF markets.
Architecture Signals
- Institutional client connectivity across REST, WebSocket, and FIX.
- RFQ request/response and RFS streaming-price workflows.
- Prime brokerage surfaces: custody, financing, DMA, settlement, reporting, positions, balances, transfers.
- Public expansion themes: derivatives/options, OTC products, ETP/ETF and TradFi convergence.
- Responsible inference around OMS/EMS, venue connectivity, risk, credit, margin, settlement, market-data distribution, and reporting systems.
Evidence Boundary
The validated public story is client-facing and product-facing. It does not validate FalconX internal service names, deployment topology, matching-engine design, venue-gateway implementation, SBE usage, Aeron usage, Rust usage, risk-engine implementation, or settlement-ledger architecture.
