Degen Arcade – Revolutionizing Memecoin Trading
Serving more than 80 million customers worldwide, Crypto.com’s emphasis on high-quality UX hinges on advanced and reliable data infrastructure. The platform faces the critical task of providing real-time data updates and accurate visualizations, both essential in supporting accurate decision-making for users. The Degen Arcade, a hub for memecoin trading, offers a seamless, intuitive experience with fast, reliable data processing. Users can easily monitor portfolios, execute quick transactions, and earn rewards through the DegenScore points system.
The Challenge: Developing an Intuitive, Real-Time Trading Feature
Developing the DeFi wallet’s Degen Arcade feature presented Crypto.com with extensive challenges. The key was to ensure data from multiple blockchains was accurately decoded and accessible in real-time. Overcoming the high latency of existing data indexing solutions was crucial to provide users with immediate access to their wallet information. Additionally, integrating data from over 38 chains and more than 4000 tokens, while avoiding data silos and isolation in the Web3 space, proved complex. Creating a scalable, low-latency public-facing API that could grow with the platform’s user base and still provide comprehensive, easily understandable metrics was another significant hurdle, involving substantial development and maintenance resources.
The costs of building an in-house solution that would solve the above challenges would be enormous (with an estimate of over $1M) and would require hundreds, if not thousands of development and maintenance hours.
Solution: ZettaBlock’s Robust Infrastructure
ZettaBlock’s infrastructure solution plays a pivotal role in enhancing the Crypto.com DeFi wallet, particularly the Degen Arcade. Our scalable and versatile infrastructure ensures easy access to high-quality, reliable data:
- High quality on-chain data for a multiplicity of chains, as well as crucial off-chain data, such as pricing, with the ability to join different data sources.
- Automated data pipelines, meaning there is a zero management effort required to create any pipelines, whilst users still have the flexibility to display various different metrics within the DeFi wallet.
- Out-of-the-box scalable database for storing various generated tables.
- The public-facing API is super-low-latency and can handle high QPS (multiple simultaneous queries ran do not negatively affect the platform), making it very reliable with a high uptime.
Altogether, this solution further enables Crypto.com to grow its ecosystem and assures that users have the best Web3 platform experience.
