Rømer Chain
Native FIX. Pure Blockchain. Seamless Trading.
Vision: Purpose-Built Infrastructure for Market Makers
Rømer Chain reimagines blockchain infrastructure by putting market makers at the center of system design. Through specialized architecture and geographic validation, we create natural regional advantages that protect local market makers while ensuring true physical decentralization.
- First blockchain optimized specifically for market making operations
- Native FIX protocol support for seamless infrastructure integration
- Protected regional markets through physical network topology
- Superior performance through advanced consensus mechanisms
The Market Opportunity
The global financial markets present a massive opportunity for blockchain integration:
- $1.1 trillion in daily global equity trading volume
- FIX protocol handles $900 billion to $1 trillion of this volume
- 85% of institutional forex trading flows through FIX
- Blockchain infrastructure remains disconnected from this massive market
- First-mover advantage in bridging traditional finance with blockchain
