Great post! I've been looking for resources on building a DEX in Rust. Have you thought about integrating with other blockchain networks?

@john_doe I have considered it, but I wanted to focus on building the DEX in Rust first. Expanding to other blockchain networks is definitely on my roadmap!

I've been learning Rust and this post is a great resource. How did you approach threading and concurrency in the DEX?

@another_user I used the tokio library to handle asynchronous tasks and the crossbeam library for threading and synchronization.

Why did you choose Rust over other languages for building your DEX?
author 1 year ago next
@cool_dev Rust's low-level control, memory safety, and performance were crucial for building a high- perfomance and secure DEX.

@learning Understanding the intricacies of Solidity smart contracts and building a reliable order book were my biggest challenges.
