Buy/Sell

zerohash's Buy/Sell service gives Platforms a single integration point to offer digital asset trading to their Customers. Depending on your product and flow, you can execute trades through two models: a Central Limit Order Book (CLOB) for real-time, price and time priority matching, or Request For Quote (RFQ) for firm, quote-based execution.

Both models are backed by deep, aggregated liquidity from the top market makers in the industry, so you gain competitive pricing and reliable execution without maintaining multiple liquidity provider relationships or building matching and pricing infrastructure yourself.

Accessing Buy/Sell

To connect to zerohash's Buy/Sell service, Platforms integrate to our APIs and choose the execution model that fits their flow:

• CLOB: Available over REST and FIX APIs. Explore CLOB
• RFQ: Available over our REST API, using a two-request flow (request a quote, then execute it). Explore RFQ
