Sidepit Exchange

Successfully closed pre-seed

Sidepit is an exchange based in San Francisco. I connected with its people when I was visiting for my own startup.

Sidepit, is the brain-child of Jay Berg ex-Bloomberg, with a profound background in trading systems, blockchain and fintech. Its goal is to level the trading field by running a fair public open auction ever second.

I have always had an interest for finance. I wanted to learn more about trading systems and exchanges. Sidepit was the perfect opportunity to contribute with my past experience with startups fron aMUZE and in return get some serious experience with trading.

Within 2 short months, I developed the whole full-stack for the MVP of Sidepit, which managed to successfully close its first round of funding. The team is now focusing on an enhanced version of the MVP for a series A round.

In order to better understand what we were building, I had to learn a lot about trading. I created a trading bot using the API of Binance. I also created a mock-exchange to better understand how things work under the hood.

My responsibilities for Sidepit were basically everything. From design, to front-end to back-end, to infrastructure and devops.

Technologies

For Sidepit, the technologies used were the most cutting edge and the most advanced I could find that would fit the project. Next.js was the perfect choice for the front-end, and Nest for the backend. Both support TypeScript, which was a must for me.
