Pegged-Price Instruments
A Fixed Rate Against Another Instrument
B2CONNECT can price an instrument at a fixed rate against another instrument instead of from live venue quotes. Configure the rate once — the platform publishes it continuously and refreshes the order book on a short cycle so connected platforms always receive a current price.

How it works
Configure the Rate Once, B2CONNECT Publishes It
01
Choose the Pegged Instrument and Its Reference
Select the instrument to price at a fixed rate, and the instrument it is priced against — instead of quotes from a live venue.
02
Set the Fixed Rate
Configure the rate once. For a stablecoin held at parity, that is typically 1:1 against its reference currency.
03
B2CONNECT Publishes the Price
B2CONNECT publishes the configured rate continuously and refreshes the order book on a short cycle so connected platforms always receive a current price.

Use cases
Stablecoin Parity, or Any Configured Fixed Rate
The most common use case is a stablecoin held at parity with its reference currency. The same configuration can support any instrument a platform chooses to offer at a fixed rate rather than from live venue quotes.
- Hold a stablecoin at a 1:1 rate against its reference currency
- Offer other instruments at a configured fixed rate
- Replace a custom pricing deployment with a standard configuration option
Why it matters
From a Custom Build to a Standard Option
Not from Live Venue Quotes
The instrument is priced at a configured fixed rate against another instrument, not from a live venue feed.
Published Continuously
B2CONNECT publishes the rate and refreshes the order book on a short cycle so connected platforms always receive a current price.
Standard Configuration
What previously called for a custom deployment is now a standard B2CONNECT configuration option.
