+Brief overview
+
+3 small models act as traders
+they connect to a shared ada hub, each with a unique ID that correlates to a wallet. The ada hub verifies with the wallet that a transaction is legal, and then uses interop Fortran to sign the transaction, which then is sent to the market, which checks an additional legality set.
+Traders also consult the Marketplace directly for information that is compiled from: Live feeds; KOL; Simulations; Live ticker feeds; and other sources TBD.
+THE MARKETPLACE then performs the trade to market.
