Perkunas is a fintech company that develops software solutions for high-frequency trading (HFT) firms, specializing in the crypto market. Our flagship product, vcrypto, significantly improves trading latency, enabling firms to maximize their trading profits by reducing tick-to-trade latency.
Perkunas LLC was created in October 2025 with the mission of creating innovative Fintech solutions with no tradeoffs to quality or robustness. We believe that excellence is paramount and although quick-to-market business strategies may win during bull times, we will eventually benefit from flight to quality.
Trading technology is an area that can be classified as mission critical since any failure can and likely will lead to large financial losses. We treat any application we write as an avionics package, where our clients are our passengers.
Our flagship product, vcrypto, offers sub-microsecond tick-to-trade latencies compared to the 10-30 microsecond overhead compared to the standard network library stack (LibWebSockets/OpenSSL/Kernel TCP/IP).
Although we used Agile in the past, today we found that a mix of Feature-driven development combined with Classic Waterfall produces the best results in a mission critical environmen
We use strict development standards inpired on NASA's JPL Power of Ten and more strictly on industry standards as MISRA and AutoSAR.
Perkunas targets proprietary trading firms and hedge funds engaged in algorithmic HFT on cryptocurrency exchanges that operate on Amazon Web Services (AWS), such as Binance, Coinbase, Bybit, Huobi, and Kucoin. These firms employ software developers to build automated trading strategies that capitalize on price movements by sending electronic orders to the exchange. The speed at which these algorithms process data and execute trades—known as "tick-to-trade latency"—is crucial, often occurring in the low single-digit microseconds. This rapid execution is far beyond human capabilities, necessitating sophisticated algorithms for profitable trading.
Perkunas offers several services to help clients enhance their trading platforms:
With over 15 years of experience in high frequency trading, high performance computing in C++ and Modern C++, our team is prepared to build ultra low latency software in any standards of your choice (C++11, C++14, C++17, C++20) that will challenge the best firms in the market.
Vcrypto is a set of high-performance C++ libraries that can be seamlessly integrated into customers' existing trading platforms to enhance latency and improve profitability. These libraries utilise custom DPDK drivers and a specialized TLS/TCP network stack to significantly outperform existing network components used for market data and order execution.
We offer monthly licenses for vcrypto, allowing customers to integrate it into their existing systems. Documentation and technical support are provided.
Perkunas offers a high-performance market data feed at an hourly rate, delivering fast crypto price information to clients' systems. Order-entry services are not included, as these would require adherence to various regulatory requirements.
We can help shortlist, evaluate and prepare C++, architecture, networking and Linux tests for candidates.
We offer traditional technical team management consulting for firms who do not have a senior person onboard with experience in financial markets or in the technology at hand.
