{"id":98437,"title":"Sequence Markets: trade across exchanges, prediction markets, and tokenized venues from one system","tagline":"Low-latency trading infrastructure for fragmented digital markets","body":"Hey everyone 🚀\n\nWe're Muhammad \u0026 Peter - co-founders of Sequence Markets.\n\n**TL;DR**\n\nMarkets are becoming more fragmented than ever. New exchanges, new venues, new markets, and new contracts keep appearing every day. Finding the best price is hard enough. Expressing one trade across all of them is even harder.\n\nSequence lets users package one market view into one trade from one system. Under the hood, we built proprietary low-latency infrastructure, routing software, and venue connectivity so users get the speed, access, and transparency execution requires.\n\n**Our Launch Video:** \u003chttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0CgTRZo3hPA\u0026vq=hd1080\u003e\n\n❌ **The problem**\n\nExecution is still fragmented across exchanges, onchain venues, spot markets, perps, prediction markets, and tokenized assets.\n\nThat means:\n\n* Hopping between venues to find the best execution path\n* Managing hedge legs and risk across separate systems\n* Stitching together APIs, wallets, dashboards, and workflows by hand\n* Poor visibility into what actually happened after the trade\n\nThe result is worse execution, more operational drag, and less control.\n\n🐂 **The solution**\n\n**What Sequence enables:**\n\n* Package one market view into one trade\n* Route across fragmented venues from one system\n* Manage hedge legs and risk in one workflow\n* Track execution reporting and improve fill quality over time\n* Run via terminal + API + SDK / MCP for humans, algos, and agent workflows\n\n**What makes this possible:**\n\nUnder the hood, we built proprietary low-latency infrastructure, routing software, and venue connectivity. On benchmark routes, our network is up to 2.5x faster than public-internet paths, and our internal latency is roughly 2 microseconds. That lets us support even latency-sensitive users like market makers, so the bottleneck is not our system.\n\nInternal benchmark tests also show meaningful improvements in execution quality, including lower slippage and lower execution drag versus public-internet routing on benchmarked paths.\n\nWe are starting with crypto, where the pain is already real, and extending the same system across prediction markets and tokenized assets over time.\n\n**Early proof:**\n\n* 150+ signups in the first week after launch\n* $104B in reported trading volume across the signup base\n* Over $10M in test volume completed on the platform in 2 weeks\n\n**The ask**\n\nWe're onboarding early users and would love intros to:\n\n* Funds, market makers, and active trading teams\n* Prosumers and investors trading across multiple venues\n* Builders and anyone who wants to trade through AI agents, API, SDK, or MCP workflows\n\n**Links**\n\n**Website:** \u003chttps://sequencemkts.com\u003e\n\n**Contact:** [founders@sequencemkts.com](mailto:founders@sequencemkts.com)\n\n**Book a product call:** \u003chttps://calendly.com/d/cybb-9gw-629/sequence-markets-meeting\u003e\n\n**Team**\n\nMuhammad is a Waterloo engineer and former founding engineer at a unicorn who builds the low-level systems behind Sequence.\n\nPeter was hired by the Toronto Stock Exchange at 17 and joined a $13B fund's trading team a year later.\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post\u0026id=98437\u0026key=user_uploads/3183596/8fbee4c0-495b-498e-9127-d04e15405ac6)\n\n","slug":"Pbh-sequence-markets-trade-across-exchanges-prediction-markets-and-tokenized-venues-from-one-system","created_at":"2026-03-04T22:03:13.711Z","updated_at":"2026-05-25T02:55:44.312Z","total_vote_count":107,"url":"https://www.ycombinator.com/launches/Pbh-sequence-markets-trade-across-exchanges-prediction-markets-and-tokenized-venues-from-one-system","share_image_url":"https://www.ycombinator.com/media/?type=post\u0026id=98437\u0026key=user_uploads/3183596/8fbee4c0-495b-498e-9127-d04e15405ac6","company":{"id":31227,"name":"Sequence Markets","slug":"sequence-markets","url":"https://sequencemkts.com/","logo":"https://bookface-images.s3.amazonaws.com/small_logos/80a96ab006079967d4861f55c708c029f8a76a6f.png","batch":"Winter 2026","industry":"Fintech","tags":[],"search_path":"https://bookface.ycombinator.com/company/31227"}}
