The convergence rail is open
Trading firms, whether running arbitrage strategies or making markets, operate on the same edge: the gap between where venues price an asset and where it should be priced. Bolt does not compete with that edge. It structures it. The forecasts the near-term fair price the market is converging toward and posts it onchain. Firms that route through Bolt execute against that price instead of chasing it. The convergence rail turns fragmented venue-by-venue execution into a single synchronized price surface.- Arbitrage

Inside the rail, not chasing it
Cross-venue arbitrage depends on spotting divergences and executing before they close. The challenge is speed, fragmentation, and competition from other searchers.Bolt changes the structure of the opportunity. The Convergence Engine already forecasts where venues are converging. Firms that route through Bolt access that directly, executing against the price lagging venues are moving toward rather than racing to capture a single divergence before it closes.Forecasted convergence, not reactive capture
Forecasted convergence, not reactive capture
Traditional arb is reactive: spot a divergence, race to fill. Bolt’s convergence price is the forecast itself. Executing against it means the firm is positioned where the market is going, not where it was.
Every divergence recorded
Every divergence recorded
The logs every divergence the engine prices. Firms operating inside the rail benefit from the engine growing sharper over time: tighter spreads, faster convergence identification, more consistent execution.
No gatekeeper dependency
No gatekeeper dependency
Bolt is onchain-native. No exclusive block-builder deals, no offchain signing queues, no priority access tiers. The convergence price is public and executable.

Everything you need is onchain. No partnership required to start.
1
Read the convergence price
Query Bolt’s onchain executable quote for supported pairs. The price is public, verifiable, and updated continuously by the Convergence Engine.
2
Identify divergences
Compare the convergence price against other venue prices. When a lagging venue has not yet converged, the spread is your opportunity.
3
Execute against the Execution Rail
Swap onchain against the committed convergence price. Atomic settlement, single transaction, no RFQ latency.
5-Minute Integration
Install the SDK and execute your first swap.
