PropellerHeads introduces Tycho X, inviting developers to build open-source trading applications using their DEX data infrastructure. Three initial project specifications have been released:
- Pool Explorer: Tool for exploring on-chain liquidity
- Orderbook: System to transform blockchain into a centralized limit order book (CLOB)
- Price Quoter: High-speed token pricing tool with microsecond response times
Developers working on these projects will receive comprehensive support in product development, technical implementation, and marketing efforts. This initiative builds on Tycho's foundation as an open-source liquidity indexer that simplifies DEX integration.
