Python Developer

Under the trade name AcheronTrading, the company is a designated market maker and provides liquidity and advisory services to digital asset issuers on exchanges worldwide. It is our belief that market inefficiency is one of the factors preventing digital assets/cryptocurrencies from achieving mass adoption. As such, our focus is to construct and provide liquidity services for digital assets from the most incipient stages and throughout their adoption cycle.

Today, Acheron’s markets represent over ten billion in market share across over thirty exchanges worldwide with team members concentrated in North America and Europe.

Our Services

The following services are included in our portfolio:

(i) Algorithmic market-making services – we provide liquidity for digital assets upon the request of, and on the exchanges designated by the customer: exchanges require digital assets issuers to maintain certain levels of liquidity to remain listed on their platform and we ensure our customers meet (and often exceed) such requirements;

(ii) Exchange advisory and planning – we research, identify and assess the suitable exchange(s) for a digital asset issuer throughout the lifecycle of its digital asset;

(iii) Risk management and modelling – we consult teams in selecting the appropriate liquidity strategy to develop a liquid market while managing the inventory risk for their digital assets
