Road map update

You can now see the main Tokpie’s plan for the year 2020. However, because of the rapid market changes, some additional goals and achievements might be added.

Integration with DAI

Thanks to the cooperation with the MakerDAO, Tokpie has become a custodial exchange for the DAI stablecoin. The next step will allow users to lend and borrow DAI in a peer-to-peer way on Tokpie.

Lend and Borrow stats improvement

To simplify the lending and borrowing, you can now watch all Annual Percentage Rates (APR) in real-time. By clicking on any line (screen below), a lender or borrower opens the related promissory note’s order book.

Tokpie Beta 1.9.4

In continuation of Tokpie exchange agile development, the following updates have been made:

1. Free access to the order books

Now users can observe any order book, market depth, price charts, etc without the need to sign up! Any visitor of tokpie.io can just click on any line here.

2. Short URLs for every market

Now users can open any trading pair market using a simple and short URL. Example: if a registered user clicks on such URL https://tokpie.com/view_exchange/tkp-eth/ he will be automatically redirected to https://tokpie.com/dashboard/make_request/tkp-eth/ for order placement.

3. Simplified trade order placement

We had hide not usable parameters like ‘county’ and ‘method of payment’ from a trade order placement page. Now, to make a trade, users can simply select base and quote currencies (Figure 1).

4. New FREE API endpoints

Two new API endpoints are now available to the public. They allow to see the following data:

5. Market Statistics restructuring

Starting from now coins and tokens listed on Tokpie exchange are displayed separately from listed bounty stakes (Figure 2). It will help to avoid some confusion.

All the above updates have allowed Tokpie to submit a listing request on Coingecko and start deep integration with other price-tracking websites.

Upcoming Updates and Releases:

TOKPIE BETA 1.8

Here are the great updates and fixings, which have been made on TOKPIE cryptocurrency exchange platform for the last weeks.

TOKPIE API Newsfeed

The Tokpie user base is growing so fast that we have urgently developed this new feature. It allows us to send short messages (250 bytes) and announcements to all our users instantly by one click. Now every user can see these messages in the Support section (picture below)

Moreover, we have made this newsfeed public and available for FREE through our API. So, now, anyone can build own (web or mobile) applications based on such API. We plan to include this newsfeed feature into our TOKPIE iOS/Android applications which will be developed later.

URL with API access to the TOKPIE’s newsfeed looks like this: https://tokpie.com/api_news_message/. This API does not require authorization and can be accessed using the GET method.

Loading Speed and Scalability

The speed of Order Books loading was increased by 12-15 times thanks to code optimizations we made. Now it takes around 1 second to open any order book (e.g. ForkDelta order books’ loading is spin and spin and takes around 4-5 minute to load). It means that overall TOKPIE platform performance has improved and we can scale further.

TOKPIE cryptocurrency exchange API business model

Like many other successful cryptocurrency exchanges, TOKPIE is realizing the opportunities that come when data and services are managed via API.

TOKPIE will be exploring two main API approaches.

First one is to start with the API showing historical data per trading pair and related price metrics (Open, High, Low, Close, Volume, %change, etc.). It’s already done in Beta 1.4! Check the TOKPIE’s Public API page with access details.

The launch of its free public API allows TOKPIE platform to grow its revenues and service awareness by being listed on Coinmarketcap, Coingecko, Blockfolio and other sites that track cryptocurrencies prices derived from many different cryptocurrency exchanges.

In addition, now anyone who has basic computing skills can start receiving up to 70% revenue share by creating own cryptocurrency applications based on this API with a personal referral link inside.

The second approach is to expand further and provide the following:

• Tools and integrators: TOKPIE will take API beyond a traditional developer audience by creating tools, integrations, and tutorials to enable the use of the API by non-technical business stakeholders. This includes creating Google Docs tools that are API-enabled, tutorials on how to create a business in a particular vertical in which the API would be used.

• Third-party apps: API consumers that are becoming commercially viable by creating apps and online tools that are wholly or partly built on the TOKPIE’s API.

• Mobile integrations: Nowadays, customers want to use their smartphones and other devices to directly connect with an exchange. API is the core technology tool to capitalize on existing and future TOKPIE data assets, reach new markets and enable new mobile opportunities.

• Full documentation, tutorials, and online support to provide a more detailed discussion of code snippets, new SDK releases and coding techniques for using TOKPIE’s API.

• Open-sourced SDK for those developers wanting to quickly assess an API before integrating it into their coding projects. It will encourage developers to build their own wrappers and other tools.

TOKPIE cryptocurrency exchange platform will be introducing more sophisticated tools and techniques to scale up the use of its API to build out a commercially viable ecosystem of applications, partners and integrations. So, stay turned in.
