We all want more volume on Nash. Exchanges usually have most of their volume coming from bots and we’d love to help, but setting up a trading bot is no easy task.
Like it! I’ve no problem committing capital to help volume and liquidity but I don’t have the knowledge to set up my own bot. If there was a ‘Nash Academy’ to help me learn, then I would.
My suspicion is that the serious volume comes from teams with programmers skilled enough to do their own integration with the API more than individual retail users with fewer programming abilities/resources. Having both is obviously the best option.
I could have been running my arbitrage bot right from the start. however, I am still waiting for them to add deposit and withdraw functionality to the python wrapper for half a year now. It seems to me like low hanging fruit since the typescript client does have those functions. They are simply not wrapped in the python SDK. Anyway, the team does not seem to agree.
Based on my limited understanding the typescript SDK is core to the project and therefore required to be well maintained & up to date. Python is definitely preferable for developing or migrating existing bots used elsewhere however the team doesn’t at this point have the resources available to dedicate a developer for keeping the python SDK up to date. Hopefully in the future they’ll hire someone specifically for this but for now the existing resources are better used elsewhere.
It’s not about keeping it up to date. First they released the typescript SDK which is complete in functionality. Then when the python SDK was released in oktober, they wrapped all the typescript functionality except the deposit and withdraw part. For some reason they chose to leave this out.
