The Foundation’s mission is to democratize high-frequency trading by maintaining the open-source Hummingbot code repositories and the HBOT governance system.
About the Foundation
Hummingbot was built and open sourced by CoinAlpha in April 2019. In December 2021, CoinAlpha spun off the Foundation as an independent open source entity to maintain the Hummingbot repositories and run a community-driven governance system using the HBOT token. Its work follows four principles: the code is open source (public, auditable and free), modular (community members can build and maintain parts independently), extensible (any strategy on any exchange or blockchain), and built for all levels, from individuals to professional firms. A small, globally distributed staff handles the day-to-day work: reviewing and merging pull requests, running governance proposals and elections, managing developer bounties and the Discord server, packaging releases and maintaining the documentation. For the full history, bylaws and governance details, see About Hummingbot Foundation.Open source repos
