Dear Liquidity Community,
In the joyful festival atmosphere here comes our Christmas present for you: our newsletter #15. This is the last one before we cross the bridge into 2020, which marks the conclusion of another exciting and productive year. As usual, we have been busy for the past few weeks, finalising the upcoming client version 2 of the NOCUST server, improving the performance and stability of TEX and finishing the new UI for Liquidity Explorer.
To make sure we are always in contact with our community, we participated in Techfuze Summit in Cairo. It was a fantastic opportunity for us to meet our community members in Egypt for the first time, answer queries and further promote Liquidity Network.
Technical updates
Our development team has been tirelessly working to improve our backend infrastructure. Fixing bugs and improving the user experience for both developers and our users.
New NOCUST Python Library
We have started to work on and made steady progress in rewriting the client library in Python. Soon you will be able to write a Liquidity Network Dapp in Python. The library will feature a full TEX support for your trading bots and others.
TEX frontend
We have also been working on improving our exchange engine TEX and adding more features. Now you can observe the trading volume for the last 24 hours and check the highest and lowest trading prices during that period. We also added order book decimal choices that allow users to change the number of decimals shown. We made some style fixes to the transaction history by adjusting the scientific annotation numbers and making them human-friendly.
NOCUST Documentation
We took significant steps in further improving the documentation of our smart contracts. We added a new page on our documentation website. On this page, we documented all public methods of the NOCUST smart-contracts. Check it here. Reminder: our smart-contracts are open source and freely available here.
Furthermore, we are currently working on the server protocol documentation. You can expect to see it available very soon.
NOCUST Server
We have been tweaking the end-point of the upcoming version 2 of the NOCUST server API to make it more clear and simple to use. We did a lot of backend work such as cloud migration and improvements to our development setup. We added support for Sell-Buy, Buy-Sell and Buy-Buy orders, a new caching layer for off-chain data to speed up fetching of historic data, as well as auto-withdrawal confirmation. There will be no need to make an additional on-chain transaction after the withdrawal clearing period.
We also fixed some major vulnerabilities on the server:
- Fixed rounding issues that were causing inaccurate accounting.
- Fixed a bug that caused some down-time on the order-book endpoint with large number divisions.
- Fixed a server bug that was preventing the proper credit of funds to the user, if the deposit happened during the last block of an EON. This will prevent any potential attack vectors from taking down the hub.
Liquidity Explorer
Our developers worked hard to finish updating the new UI for the Liquidity Explorer. We added features such as QR code scanner and on-chain balances. It’s now available to see the latest transactions with their data as well as the difference between transactions and swaps.
We have also expanded the search options. The search is now possible by wallet or token address as well as transaction ID and EON number.
Finally, we added a fourth hub called XCHF to the already-existing hubs (Mainnet, Limbo and Rinkeby).
The new explorer is available here.
Events, Conferences and Community
Techfuze 2019
We participated at Techfuze in Cairo, Egypt (13 -14th December). Since it was our first attendance at a conference in Egypt, we were very excited to meet with our community there. We organised a competition on our Facebook page to give away 10 free invitations for the summit.
In the photos you can see our team members by our display booth, striving to inform and inspire. We received keen interest from many people, who wanted to learn more about Liquidity Network.
On 14th December we gave a talk on “scalable decentralized finance” which received positive feedback.
To see more about our engagement with the community during Techfuze, please follow us on Facebook.

开发、市场与商务更新 – 发行 #15。
亲爱的Liquidity社区成员，
我们在欢乐的节日气氛中为你呈上圣诞礼物：#15时讯。这是进入2020年之前的最后一天，标志着又一个激动人心、卓有成效的一年即将结束。像以往一样，过去几周我们一直忙于做完即将发布的NOCUST服务器客户端版本2，提高TEX的性能和稳定性、完成Liquidity浏览器的新UI。
为确保我们始终与社区保持联系，我们参加了在开罗举行的Techfuze峰会。埃及峰会是一次绝佳的机会，让我们首次与埃及社区成员见面，回答大家的问题，进一步促进Liquidity Network。
技术更新
我们的开发团队一直孜孜不倦地改进我们的后端基础设施。修复错误，提升开发者和用户的体验。
新的NOCUST Python库
我们已经开始着手用Python重写客户端库，并取得了长足进步。很快你就可以用Python编写Liquidity Network 去中心化应用。该库将为交易机器人和其他内容提供完整的TEX支持。
TEX前端
我们也在持续改进交换引擎TEX并添加更多功能。现在你可以观察过去24小时的成交量，并查看在此时间内的最高和最低交易价格。我们还添加了交易委托账本小数选项，允许用户更改显示的小数位数。我们对交易历史进行了部分修正，调整了科学注解数量，使其更人性化。
NOCUST文档
我们采取了重要措施进一步改进智能合约文件。我们在文档网站中增加了一个新页面。在此页面里，我们记录了所有公开的NOCUST智能合约方法。点此查看。提醒：我们的智能合约是开源的，点此免费获取。
另外，我们目前正在制定服务器协议文档。很快就会发布。
NOCUST服务器
我们一直在调整即将发布的NOCUST服务器API版本2的端点，使其更清晰易用。我们做了很多后端工作，比如云端迁移和开发设置改进。我们增加了对卖空、买多和买入订单的支持，为链下数据添加了一个新的缓存层，可加速获取历史数据和提现自动确认。在提现结算期结束后，不需要额外的链上交易。
我们还修复了服务器的几个重要漏洞：
- 修正了导致账单不准确的四舍五入问题。
- 修正了交易委托账本端点上出现大量分区而导致故障的问题。
- 修正了一个服务器错误，如果在一个EON的最后一个区块存款，那么这个错误会导致用户无法正确计入资金。这样可以预防任何导致集线器崩溃的潜在攻击。
Liquidity浏览器
我们的开发人员全力升级了新的Liquidity 浏览器UI。我们增加了二维码扫描器和链上余额等功能。现在可以看到最新的交易及其数据，并可以区分交易和掉期。
我们还扩展了搜索选项。现在可以通过钱包或通证地址以及交易ID和EON号码进行搜索。
最后，我们在现有的集线器(主网、Limbo和Rinkeby)上添加了叫做XCHF的第四个集线器。

活动、会议和社区
Techfuze 2019
我们参加了埃及开罗的Techfuze（12月13日至14日）。这是我们第一次在埃及参加会议，我们对于在埃及与社区会面感到十分兴奋。我们在自己的Facebook页面上组织了一次竞赛，免费送出10份峰会邀请函。
在照片中可以看到我们的团队成员站在展位旁，热情的介绍并鼓励大家参与。很多人都很感兴趣，他们想了解Liquidity Network的更多信息。
在12月14日，我们发表了主题为“可扩展的去中心化金融”的演讲，得到了大量的正面反馈。
