Good question. Thank you.

1. Peatio team has contact with 3rd parties, e.g. sakurityhttp://sakurity.com/

2. Peatio also has bounty program

3. Because Peatio is open source , so some white hacker also check code and report bugs to team.

In addition, when Peatio received bug report , we will fix it and inform exchanges based on Peatio project.

@bitdraw we conducted a security audit of peatio. The report will be public in a week. In general: it's much more secure than the rest of exchangers and code quality is higher.

Looks awesome but why give it away for free and make it open source?

There are reasons biggest companies open source their code, for instance Netflix:

- We have benefited from many other people contributing to open source, so we are paying back in kind.

- Netflix was an early cloud adopter, moving all of our streaming services to run on top of AWS infrastructure.  We paid the pioneer tax – by encountering and working through many issues, corner cases and limitations. We’ve captured the patterns that work  in our platform components and automation tools. We benefit from the scale effects of other AWS users adopting similar patterns, and will continue working with the community to develop the ecosystem.

- External community contributions - by opening up we enable the larger developer community to: review, comment,  add test cases, bug fixes, ports and functional contributions to our components, benefiting everyone.

- Improved code and documentation quality – we’ve observed that the peer pressure from “Social Coding” has driven engineers to make sure code is clean and well structured, documentation is useful and up to date. What we’ve learned is that a component may be “Good enough for running in production, but not good enough for Github”.

- Durability – we think any code will fare better over time if it’s actively developed by an open community and used widely vs. maintained by small number of engineers for a single workload.

No, but you may need some work to integrate deposit channel if you want to trade fiats or even commodity.

thanks for this project but how secure it is? is it enough secure to run a big exchange,
i will give it a try to setup and test this to see if i find anything that need to be fixed

Bitcoin exchange based on Peatio can handle 5000 transactions per second. About performance ,Yunbi exchange www.yunbi.com  is one of  the best and popular exchange in China.

If you can speak  not only English , but also other language,( e.g. French, Japanese,Russian,Italian) can you do some translation work for Peatio project? We hope more and more bitcoiners who can't speak English can know and use Peatio.

You can also make a post on local bitcoin forum, introducing Peatio project.
