MobyMarket

Under active development

MobyMarket is under active development. APIs, schemas, and on-chain layouts may change. Production use at your own risk. Issues + PRs welcome — see the GitHub repo.

Finally, a trading platform built for whales.

MobyMarket is an institutional-grade DeFi trading platform designed for traders moving size that would otherwise move markets. It combines an OTC marketplace, sophisticated execution algorithms (TWAP / VWAP), and zero-knowledge privacy features on top of Solana, with a roadmap toward multi-chain support.

What problem does it solve?

If you are trading millions on public DeFi venues today, you face a stack of structural problems:

  • MEV / front-running — every large order risks being sandwiched.
  • Market impact — large trades cause severe slippage.
  • Strategy leakage — public order flow telegraphs your positions.
  • Counterparty discovery — finding institutions to take the other side of size is hard.
  • Compliance — institutional flow needs an audit trail without doxxing the trader.

MobyMarket addresses each of these as a first-class concern rather than a workaround.

Core capabilities

Find real counterparties

  • OTC Marketplace — connect directly with institutions and market makers.
  • Request-for-Quote (RFQ) — solicit competitive quotes from multiple counterparties.
  • Dark pools — trade without revealing size until matched.

See: OTC Trading Guide, Market Maker Guide.

Trade without moving markets

  • TWAP — spread execution over hours or days with intelligent timing.
  • VWAP — execute against natural volume profiles.
  • Smart routing — split across venues automatically.

See: Execution Algorithms, Whale Trading Guide.

Keep your strategy private

  • Zero-knowledge proofs — trade without revealing amounts or timing.
  • Stealth mode — order flow that looks like noise to observers.
  • Privacy pools — mix with other whales for stronger anonymity sets.

See: Privacy Features, Privacy Trading Guide.

Stay compliant

  • Selective disclosure — prove compliance without revealing details.
  • Jurisdiction proofs — demonstrate accreditation without revealing location.
  • Audit trail — full compliance reporting when required.

Who is this for?

How the system is built

MobyMarket is structured as a layered set of Solana programs and supporting libraries:

  • Main controller — orchestrates operations.
  • OTC settlement — peer-to-peer trade execution.
  • Execution algorithms — TWAP / VWAP / intent processing.
  • Privacy program — ZK-proof verification and confidential transfers.
  • Oracles — price feeds and market data aggregation.

For implementation detail see the Technical Architecture and the Solana Programs Specification.

Project status

The codebase under this repository is the in-progress implementation of the MobyMarket whale trading infrastructure. The phased rollout (OTC, then privacy, then multi-chain, then AI-assisted execution) is described in the Implementation Roadmap and the Implementation Order.
