FeedTrust MVP: Production-Grade Architecture

Overview

  • FeedTrust is a modular, blockchain-backed access-control and provenance layer for cross-venue market data feeds. The MVP demonstrates policy-driven data access with verifiable provenance across two venues, via adapters and a simple aggregator.

Tech Stack (Python)

  • Policy DSL: policy.py a lightweight DSL-ish syntax and compiler for access rules.
  • Provenance Ledger: ledger_merkle.py Merkle-tree based proofs of data lineage.
  • Adapters: adapters/fix.py, adapters/websocket.py toy adapters bridging two feed types to a canonical signal format.
  • Aggregation: aggregation.py cross-venue data mixing with lightweight provenance tagging.
  • Core: core.py orchestrates policy checks, ledger interactions, and end-to-end flow.
  • Tests: tests/ unit and integration tests ensuring policy enforcement, ledger proofs, and end-to-end flow.
  • Packaging: pyproject.toml production-grade packaging metadata; README and READY_TO_PUBLISH as per spec.

How to Run (locally)

  • Ensure Python 3.11+ is installed.
  • Install test dependencies: pytest
  • Run tests: ./test.sh
  • Build package: python -m build
