tool, which allows to collect and combine orders of our exchanges clients and orders from third-party platforms into a single order package and make them available for trading by all LIQNET's client.
Users and their assets are split; therefore,liquidity is split, too. Cryptocurrencies should unite people, companies, and financial streams, but the fragmentation of trading over several platforms leads to increased volatility of many cryptographic currencies and assets.
This scares traditional investors away from investing in cryptocurrencies. Low-level of liquidity and considerable spreads on the development of the cryptocurrency industry. Naturally,exchanges should seek to get into a unified trading place to be able to use the combined liquidity to increase revenue to increase revenue.
The abundance of exchange and trade tools on the market should also be critically reviewed. At first glance, the market is filled with stock and cryptocurrency Exchanges. However, when filtered by such parameters as reliability,accessibility for end-users (many exchanges are selective in allowing residents of different countries and jurisdictions to trade), ability to trade with required tools ( fiduciary currencies included), the choice is arrowed drastically,and the illusion of abundance goes away.
At the remaining optimal exchanges,liquidity will be limited.Therefore, during a market move or when buying or selling a significant amount of funds, a trader risks to fail to get the required amount or get it at an unacceptable price. We solved this problem by uniting liquidity streams from different platforms into one orderbook.
LIQNET SOLUTIONS
Thebasis of the LIQNET project is a secure cryptocurrency exchange. It collects liquidity using both classic methods and a stand alone mechanism that uses the LEN in-house LEN technology.
LEN is a mechanism that through an API allows to collect and combine data on requests to sell/buy from many cryptocurrency Exchanges located any where in the world and to form a unified order book.
LEN aggregates requests into a single stream, and because of that users can make deals at the most favorable price with a minimal spread
LEN allows the LIQNET system to get an improved model from the standard model of marketdepth.
The new model offers added liquidity at the intersection ofsupply and demand. Below diagram respectively
As a result, LIQNET users work with a unified order book, which contains both orders of clients of this exchange and orders relayed from other platforms.
The server side of the LIQNET platform is a private cloud, which is composed of physical servers in several locations and client terminals (currently, one terminal for web browsers).The security of the server side has been thoroughly tested.
The LEN technology comprises three essential services:
The server side of the system comprises several services (apps), which have different functions. The LIQNET platform
uses cluster databases: all financial data is saved to several servers and can be replicated between locations.Thereby, the system is ready to be scaled.
Cryptocurrency storage and accounting system are worth pointing out.They comprise the following sub-systems:
*Platform's internal cryptocurrency storage system (a geographically spread out array of hot, conditionally hot, and cold wallets and multisig addresses for every cryptocurrency )
Depending on the size of collected investments, the tokens will be distributed as follows:
*93.56%— ICO investors
If 95%of the Hardcap is collected— development of the acquiring service will be postponed until enough money is earned on exchanges fees.
If 90% of the Hardcap is collected— development of the online wallet will also be postponed until enough
money is earned on exchanges fees.
If 40%-90% of the Hardcap is collected— the share of the circulating capital will be proportionally decreased
from 65% to 50%, and the share of the other RM items will be proportionally increased.
LEN TOKEN DESCRIPTION
Token Ticker symbol: LEN

Maximum number of tokens (given all tokens are distributed in the first three days ): 63746032
Price of one LEN token: $1

THE BLOCKCHAIN
The blockchain technology is based on the distributed computer network with cryptographic based security and a particular protocol of network nodes interactions— accumulation of information in a block and it's further verification by all nodes.
THE EXCHANGES
Today, the process of conversion of one cryptocurrency into another or into a national currency is done in two ways:
