TEE Edge Market

TEE Edge Market

A decentralized marketplace for TEE edge nodes, enabling secure, low-latency, and verifiable trading bot execution.

Project description.

Our project introduces TEE Edge Market, a decentralized platform where anyone can rent out or utilize Trusted Execution Environment (TEE) edge nodes.

The platform addresses the key challenges of trading bot execution:

• Security: Strategies and keys remain confidential inside TEE enclaves.
• Latency: Bots can run near exchange or rpc servers for millisecond-level advantages.
• Cost: Function-based execution reduces always-on expenses.
• Transparency: Remote attestation provides verifiable proof of execution.

This project creates a new ecosystem where three different stakeholders gain tangible benefits:

• Traders (Searchers / Bot Users)

  Traders can execute bots in edge environments physically close to exchanges or builders, minimizing latency by milliseconds—an advantage that directly impacts profitability in high-frequency and MEV strategies.

  Since the execution happens inside TEE enclaves, their private keys and trading strategies remain fully confidential, reducing the risk of leaks or misuse by infrastructure providers.

  They also save costs by using function-based execution, paying only when their bots are actually running instead of maintaining expensive always-on servers.

• Node Providers

  Individuals or organizations with TEE-capable hardware can monetize unused resources by offering them to the marketplace.

  Their revenue is proportional to uptime, stability, and proximity to exchange APIs, creating incentives to provide reliable and well-located infrastructure.

  This effectively transforms idle edge hardware into a source of passive income, while contributing to the overall decentralization of the execution layer.

• Bot Developers

  Developers can distribute their trading bots or AI agents without exposing their proprietary logic.

  Because strategies are executed entirely within a TEE, even the infrastructure provider cannot access or reverse-engineer them.

  At the same time, developers can implement a usage-based monetization model—collecting fees each time their bots are run—while attaching attestation proofs that guarantee to users the code was executed under the promised conditions.

  This creates trust and transparency between developers and users, enabling safer adoption of third-party strategies.
