    A transport and signing reference for developers writing trading code for Nado (a CLOB perpetual DEX on Ink, Kraken's L2; stack and team from ex-Vertex). The official JS SDK is not used here: requests are assembled and signed directly (viem for EIP-712, fetch for HTTP).

  8. Nado — request limits: weights, budgets, local throttling, retries

    How to calculate load on the Nado gateway, which limits are published, and how to configure a local throttle. All exchange limits here are from documentation (docs.nado.xyz, developer-resources/api/rate-limits): they were not verified by hitting the limit live. Headroom, burst, and concurrency depend on the workload and are configured by the calling application.
