Rothera, a US-based CFTC-regulated event contract market, has launched its institutional-grade exchange and clearing platform using Adaptive's Aeron Exchange Accelerator technology. The platform was delivered in under five months, enabling Rothera to offer trading in swaps related to world events such as the 2026 FIFA World Cup. The Aeron-based architecture supports thousands of concurrent contracts in a low-latency, high-availability environment operating 24/7.
