5. 🔐 Infrastructure & Security
WhalesX isn't just a slick UI. It's a high-frequency trading engine built like a battle-grade OS. Speed, scalability, and hardcore security are baked into every layer of the stack.
🔐 Vault HMS — Your Wallet, Locked & Loaded
On your first Phantom connection, WhalesX generates an internal wallet — encrypted, secure, and vault-protected.
Private key is shown once only, never stored in plain text
Encrypted via 256-bit GCM
10,000 iterations on Vault Transit engine
Powers encryption for:
WhalesX wallet
User JWTs
All backend endpoints and session tokens
This is the same vault-grade tech used in banking and high-security Web3 systems.
🔑 Backend-Only Auth with Encrypted JWT
Every user session gets a unique JWT, encrypted via Vault and tied to:
Your Phantom wallet
Your WhalesX wallet
Your active session
All API calls go through this token: ✅ No manual signing ✅ No key exposure ✅ Backend-only, airtight authentication
That means fast, secure interactions — with zero friction.
🔒 Full TLS Stack — Mongo, Redis, Vault
All data is encrypted in transit and at rest:
MongoDB for persistent storage
Redis for ultra-fast RAM caching
Vault HMS for secure secret management
➡️ No plaintext packets. ➡️ Fully TLS/HTTPS from end to end. This is enterprise-grade infrastructure.
⚡ Redis = High-Speed Brain
Redis powers real-time performance:
Caches pools as soon as they're discovered
Stores live copy-trade configs
Handles key requests in under 30 ms
New pool: 100–400 ms
Cached pool: ~25 ms
Even if you're not first to the trade, you move like you are.
🚀 Parallelized Transactions + Solana TPU
WhalesX doesn’t just throw out RPCs and pray.
Every trade is:
Parallelized
Routed through Solana’s Transaction Processing Unit (TPU)
Synced with a custom backend stack:
SWQOS threading
Dedicated gRPC wallet tracker
Load-balanced execution logic
💡 Current capacity: 100 RPS 📈 Target: 1000 RPS via custom RPC node in the roadmap
🌍 Low-Latency Hosting — Right Next to Solana
WhalesX runs on bare-metal servers deployed near the Solana RPC endpoint.
Result: Trader hits “Buy”? You're in the same block — or the very next. No lag. No delay. No missed trades.
TL;DR — Fort Knox, but Make It Fast
✅ Vault HMS encryption (256-bit GCM + Transit)
✅ JWT-only backend auth, no keys exposed
✅ TLS stack across all data layers
✅ Ultra-fast caching with Redis
✅ Parallelized trading via TPU
✅ Scalable from 100 → 1000 RPS
✅ Proximity hosting for real-time execution
WhalesX is built to win blockspace wars. You’re not just copying traders — you’re moving with military-grade infrastructure.
