Brokering Services
Kimber operates as a non-custodial introducing broker, connecting customers to digital securities markets through WalletConnect-enabled self-custody wallets. Our smart order routing engine evaluates execution quality across all compatible venues in real-time.
Non-Custodial Architecture
Kimber never takes custody of customer assets. All transactions are initiated and signed by the customer using their own private keys via the WalletConnect protocol. This architecture eliminates counterparty risk and aligns with regulatory expectations for asset protection.
- WalletConnect v2 integration for secure wallet connections
- Private keys never leave the customer's device
- Transaction signing occurs entirely client-side
- No omnibus accounts or pooled customer assets
Smart Order Routing
The automated routing engine determines optimal venue selection based on asset class, available liquidity, and best execution obligations under FINRA Rule 5310. The system evaluates price, speed, likelihood of execution, and total transaction costs.
- Real-time best execution analysis across all compatible venues
- Automated venue selection based on multi-factor scoring
- Support for Nest Protocol, Rooster DEX (ATS), and external venues
- Continuous monitoring of execution quality metrics
MEV Protection
Kimber implements multiple layers of protection against Maximal Extractable Value (MEV) attacks to ensure customers receive fair execution prices.
- Private transaction relay to prevent frontrunning
- Time-lock puzzle mechanisms for order concealment
- Slippage protection with configurable tolerance
- Post-trade MEV analysis and reporting
B2B Distribution Model
Kimber operates exclusively in a B2B capacity, providing brokering infrastructure to other registered broker-dealers and qualified crypto-native platforms. Kimber never faces retail customers directly.
- White-label integration via REST and WebSocket APIs
- FIX protocol support for institutional counterparties
- Customizable order types and execution parameters
- SEC Rule 606 quarterly order routing disclosures
