Nexus Nodes

Nexus Nodes are self‑hosted maker daemons that supply liquidity to the DotSwap network while retaining full custody of funds.

Function
Expanded Description

Publish Curves

• Support CPMM (constant‑product) and CLMM (concentrated range) formats.

• Update depth instantly after each fill to avoid stale quotes.

Sign PSBTs

• Validate inbound PSBT against posted intent (price, size, fee).

• Apply partial signature for owned inputs only; refuse if slippage breached.

• Return signed PSBT to Nexus Engine within SLA window.

• Update local UTXO set and curve after confirmation.

Lifecycle

  1. Boot → Connect to Bitcoin Core & configure wallet keys.

  2. Curve Broadcast → POST initial CPMM/CLMM data.

  3. Quote Loop → Receive PSBT, run risk check, sign, respond.

  4. Settle & Refresh → Detect mined tx, adjust liquidity, publish new curve.

Security Notes

  • Runs behind Tor or reverse proxy; no private keys leave host.

  • Supports HSM/MPC signing for institutional setups.

Ideal Operators

Market‑making desks, custody firms, DAOs seeking yield, or advanced individuals who prefer self‑managed liquidity over custodial pools.
