Hummingbot 1.10 Adds Cross-Exchange Mining and Market Connectors
Article Hummingbot docs
Summary
These release notes describe a Hummingbot update that adds connectivity to several decentralized and centralized crypto markets, including spot and perpetual futures venues. The highlighted strategy, cross-exchange mining, places maker orders on one exchange and seeks to earn the spread relative to a taker exchange. The notes compare it with cross-exchange market making, saying the new approach is intended to make taker-side fills and balanced hedging more reliable. They do not provide implementation details, trading parameters, or performance evidence to assess that claim.
The release also introduces examples of customizable trading scripts and lists connector and client changes, including fixes to order handling and data queries. For researchers, the strategy description suggests a framework for capturing cross-venue spreads while managing exposure across venues. In practice, results would depend on fees, fill probability, latency, inventory controls, and the ability to hedge; the notes do not quantify these factors. This is a software release summary rather than a tested strategy guide, and its descriptions should not be read as evidence of profitability.

Hummingbot codebase now features examples of [12 different scripts](../strategies/scripts/examples.md) that you can customize and run using Hummingbot. Each cohort of [Hummingbot Botcamp](https://hummingbot.org/botcamp), our new intensive 4-week bootcamp that teaches students how to create custom trading strategies as simple Hummingbot scripts, will add more examples into the codebase. All scripts examples can be found [here](../strategies/scripts/examples.md). ## Other Changes ### Client Updates - [5849](https://github.com/hummingbot/hummingbot/pull/5849) Refactored the `dYdX perpetual` connector to gold standard - [5860](https://github.com/hummingbot/hummingbot/pull/5860) Updated the `Bybit` spot connector to v2.1 **Thanks to [yancong001](https://github.com/yancong001) for this fix! 🙏* - [5893](https://github.com/hummingbot/hummingbot/pull/5893) Removed `FTX` connector and other references from the codebase ### Gateway Updates - [5719](https://github.com/hummingbot/hummingbot/pull/5719) Fixed issue with the `gateway connector-tokens` parameter nor returning the set tokens for balance command - [5735](https://github.com/hummingbot/hummingbot/pull/5735) Fixed conflict with the `curl.sh` script **Thanks to [han-qiu](https://github.com/han-qiu) for this fix! 🙏* ### Bug Fixes - [5766](https://github.com/hummingbot/hummingbot/pull/5766) Fixed issue with `OKX` cancel order error code **Thanks to [huatahhhhh](https://github.com/huatahhhhh) for this fix! 🙏* - [5781](https://github.com/hummingbot/hummingbot/pull/5781) Fixed issue with incorrect quote volume quantize method when querying the order book **Thanks to [supervik](https://github.com/supervik) for this fix! 🙏* - [5809](https://github.com/hummingbot/hummingbot/pull/5809) Fixed issue with the `config` command that allowed a strategy to be updated in a loaded config **Thanks to [MementoRC](https://github.com/MementoRC) for this fix! 🙏* - [5812](https://github.com/hummingbot/hummingbot/pull/5812) Fixed issue with the `XEMM` strategy price conversions **Thanks to [kadirc](https://github.com/kadirc) for this fix! 🙏* - [5820](https://github.com/hummingbot/hummingbot/pull/5820) Fixed issue where the throttler duplicates requests in the task log *Thanks to [MementoRC](https://github.com/MementoRC) for this fix! 🙏* - [5828](https://github.com/hummingbot/hummingbot/pull/5828) Fixed issue with `OKX` orderbook datasource getting the wrong amount *Thanks to [huatahhhhh](https://github.com/huatahhhhh) for this fix! 🙏* - [5852](https://github.com/hummingbot/hummingbot/pull/5852) Fixed issue with base asset balance in asset ratio config *Thanks to `ethicrypt` for this fix! 🙏*
