Really? Matching engine? Bro, I just want to ask, what use is this thing for retail investors? The market makers' high-frequency orders are already ahead of us anyway...

To be honest, most retail investors can't figure out how the matching engine works at all... Those who understand it have already made a killing.

To be honest, most people have no idea how a matching engine actually works, and they're just trading based on luck. No wonder they keep getting rekt.

The matching engine is indeed a bottleneck; it's really not that simple.

Simply put, the matching engine is the underlying logic of the entire game. Only by understanding it can you truly make money... I mean, profit.

What you said about the matching engine is correct, but that has to be based on fair execution. I’ve seen too many exchanges where poor permission control allowed insiders to exploit loopholes and front-run—formal verification workflows can completely avoid this problem.
