Release Highlights

New Solana DEX Connectors

With the continuous refactor of Gateway approved in NCP-22, this release introduces new connectors for Solana DEXs Meteora and Raydium, as well as standardized request and response interfaces for CLMM, AMM, and Swap request and responses in Gateway. In addition, Gateway can now be used as a standalone CLI. This marks a significant step towards a flexible yet standardized blueprint for adding back past Gateway connectors and supporting future DEX connectors.

The next release (2.5.0) will begin modifying the Hummingbot client to take advantage of the new CLMM and AMM connectors in Gateway, including sample Hummingbot scripts leveraging that showcase how traders can build effective strategies using these new components. As a preview, check out the video demo below for a Hummingbot script that automate Meteora LP positions by dynamically opens, monitors, and closes positions based on user-defined parameters.

Core Environment Upgrade and Tests

This release introduces significant updates to modernize the Hummingbot environment and improve its performance and maintainability. It replaces the outdated nose test framework with pytest, removes the legacy, deprecated Telegram integration in preparation for an forthcoming update, and upgrades important libraries like Pydantic for faster performance. Collectively, these changes streamline dependency management, provide a more robust and modern testing suite, and make the codebase leaner and easier to maintain.

Pull Request: Hummingbot #7403

New Derive Spot and Perpetual Connector

This release adds support for spot and perpetual connectors to Derive, a decentralized CLOB trading protocol. See pull request Hummingbot #7432 which was supported by a bounty funded by the Derive team.

While the bounty was just for the CLOB perpetual connector, the developer also generously added the CLO spot connector in Hummingbot #7383. Thanks to isreallee82 for this contribution! 🙏

See the Derive documentation for more information.
