Share New Research 
Hello,
I am trying my luck see if there are any devs here interested in working on an implementation of dYdX with QuantConnect. dYdX is a decentralised exchange allowing to margin trade perpetual contracts for over 35 cryptos in a permissionless, non-custodial and cost-efficient way. UX is similar to what you get on top centralised crypto exchanges and they have a comprehensive API (https://docs.dydx.exchange).
In addition, they have a multi-million grant programme to finance this kind of contribution (https://forums.dydx.community/discussion/5808-dydx-grants-program-v15). For reference, here are a few “comparable” grants that have already been funded:
- ccxt Library Integration: $15,000 (https://www.dydxgrants.com/grants/ccxt-library-integration)
- Tradingview Integration: $20,000 (https://www.dydxgrants.com/grants/tradingview-integration)
- C# SDK: $30,000 (https://www.dydxgrants.com/grants/c-sdk)
I am not an actual dev myself so I won't be able to help with the implementation, but I would be happy to help preparing the grant application if anyone is interested :)

Hi Jared, glad to see you are interested!
We are working on cool quant/crypto/DeFi project with some friends, which could have some synergies with Quantconnect at some point (particularly if you integrate with dydx). I will email you some details, just for info. And we are also applying for a grant and have been in contact with the team for some time, we can make an intro directly if that helps.
