Pyth is a gateway between the physical world & the crypto world. Data providers can partner with Pyth to stream outside data for use in smart contracts on Solana. Partners already include Virtu, Akuna, LMAX, GTS, Jump, and now IEX.https://www.theblockcrypto.com/post/112222/iex-cloud-joins-pyth-network …
As an HFT firm, why do a Pyth partnership? A trading firm needs a few necessities to operate: Liquidity Quality mkt data Fast infrastructure Counterparty trust Legacy mkt structure gives firms all these things at high cost. Solana + Pyth can offer these things much cheaper.
It's no coincidence that all the Pyth parnters thus far have been the most outspoken about high market data costs, and have tried to break the exchange monopoly in the past (like w/ MEMX, SEC lobbying, etc...) Solana + Pyth may be their best shot yet.
I'll be publishing a larger paid piece on Solana & Pyth next week, diving into their structure & impact on the market data monopoly. Sign up below if interested:https://frontmonth.substack.com/1b8b8f63
But Pyth wouldn't be useful for real-time market data right? While Solana is fast for a blockchain, I imagine it must still be way slower than being colocated in an exchange data center. So Pyth can do nothing about colo/connectivity fees.
