| 9 | This project is a simulation of a crypto exchange, intended for beginners and
|
|---|
| 10 | created as a project for the Databases course for 2025-2026. The project is
|
|---|
| 11 | inspired by TradingView/Binance and aims to let users experience buying and
|
|---|
| 12 | selling cryptocurrencies, as well as the influence these activities have on the
|
|---|
| 13 | market and on the way trades are executed.
|
|---|
| 14 |
|
|---|
| 15 | The platform will allow user registration and the management of virtual (prop)
|
|---|
| 16 | money. Every step of the process will be explained in detail, so that users
|
|---|
| 17 | understand exactly what happens behind the scenes and how transactions affect
|
|---|
| 18 | the market.
|
|---|
| 19 |
|
|---|
| 20 | The following technologies are used: Golang (with the Chi package), and
|
|---|
| 21 | PostgreSQL for the database. The prototype will be a Go CLI, and the final
|
|---|
| 22 | project will be built with TypeScript, specifically Lit components.
|
|---|
| 23 |
|
|---|
| 24 | The main goal is to create educational and interactive software that will help
|
|---|
| 25 | beginners and ordinary users understand how crypto exchanges work through
|
|---|
| 26 | practical simulation and clear explanations.

| 35 | ## Detailed description
|
|---|
| 36 |
|
|---|
| 37 | This project is an educational simulation of a crypto exchange, intended for
|
|---|
| 38 | beginners and created as a project for the Databases course for 2025-2026. The
|
|---|
| 39 | project is inspired by the leading platforms TradingView and Binance, with the
|
|---|
| 40 | goal of letting users experience in practice the buying and selling of
|
|---|
| 41 | cryptocurrencies, as well as the direct influence these transactions have on the
|
|---|
| 42 | market and on the trade-execution process itself.
|
|---|
| 43 |
|
|---|
| 44 | The platform will allow user registration and the management of virtual (prop)
|
|---|
| 45 | money. Every step of the process will be explained in detail and in practical
|
|---|
| 46 | terms, so that users can more easily understand what exactly happens behind the
|
|---|
| 47 | scenes — from the placing of orders to their matching and the effects on market
|
|---|
| 48 | liquidity.
|
|---|
| 49 |
|
|---|
| 50 | The following technologies are used to build the project: Golang (with the Chi
|
|---|
| 51 | package) for the server side and PostgreSQL for managing the database. The
|
|---|
| 52 | architecture is planned in two phases: the initial prototype will be a Go CLI
|
|---|
| 53 | application for quick verification, while the final web version will be built
|
|---|
| 54 | with TypeScript, specifically with Lit components, to create a modern interface.
|
|---|
| 55 |
|
|---|
| 56 | The main goal is to create interactive software that will help beginners and
|
|---|
| 57 | ordinary users understand how crypto exchanges work through practical
|
|---|
| 58 | simulation, clear explanations and transparent processes.
|
|---|
| 59 |
|
|---|
| 60 |
|
|---|
| 61 | ### Who is the database and project intended for?
|
|---|
| 62 |
|
|---|
| 63 | Target Audience: Beginners and general users who want to learn how cryptocurrency exchanges work without financial risk.
|
|---|
| 64 |
|
|---|
| 65 | ### Which problems does your project solve?
|
|---|
| 66 |
|
|---|
| 67 | This is only for education purposes. The problem is fixing the financial literacy of the people.
|
|---|
| 68 |
|
|---|
| 69 | ### Who uses the system? What types of users exist?
|
|---|
| 70 |
|
|---|
| 71 | Roles/Users that are expected to use this product are:
|
|---|
| 72 |
|
|---|
| 73 | - Visitors
|
|---|
| 74 | - Traders
|
|---|
| 75 |
|
|---|
| 76 | ### How is this different from similar existing solutions?
|
|---|
| 77 |
|
|---|
| 78 | Virtual money with a step-by-step explanation of what each order does to the `book`.
|
|---|
| 79 |
|
|---|
| 80 | ### Is this a web, mobile and/or desktop application?
|
|---|
| 81 |
|
|---|
| 82 | The prototype will be a CLI but the end goal will be to build a website
|
|---|
| 83 |
|
|---|
