Things You Should Know

RUNNING A EXCHANGE IS HARD.

Peatio makes it easier, but running an exchange is still harder than a blog, which you can download the source code and following the guide or even a cool installer and boom!!! a fancy site is there to profit. We always prioritize security and speed higher than 1-click setup. We split Peatio to many components (processes) so it's flexible to deploy and scalable.

SECURITY KNOWLEDGE IS A REQUIREMENT.

Peatio cannot protect your customers when you leave your admin password 1234567, or open sensitive ports to public internet. No one can. Running an exchange is a very risky task because you're dealing with money directly. If you don't known how to make your exchange secure, hire an expert.

You must know what you're doing, there's no shortcut. Please get prepared before continue:
