Binance’s top-of-book and trade data joined @doublezero Edge last week, bringing a distribution model via IP multicast, long used in traditional markets, to one of crypto’s largest sources of price discovery. If you’re not familiar with IP multicast, a simple way to explain it is this: with individual connections, like oracles traditionally use to distribute market data in crypto, the same update has to be sent separately to each recipient, introducing differences in delivery time as those connections are served. With multicast, data is sent once and replicated by the network, removing that sequential distribution step. DoubleZero now applies this model to @binance data, ingesting the feed in Tokyo and distributing it over its dedicated fiber network. The exchange’s matching engine and order book remain unchanged, but firms subscribing through Edge no longer depend on individual transmissions from the Edge distributor to receive each update. That removes one source of timing differences from market data delivery, leaving more of the competitive advantage to what firms do with the information once they receive it. And for traders looking to act based on that data, @TheHUB offers access to the Binance trading gateway with latency as low as 6 microseconds. DMs are open.
