OilChain: Digital Oil Trading Platform with KYC/AML Compliance
Overview

Project Deep Dive

OilChain is a customizable and scalable digital platform engineered for a global commodity trading space, with compliance and security at its core. Users register with email or phone, verify via email/SMS OTP and secure their accounts with optional two-factor authentication. A personalized dashboard provides an overview of account activity, buyer and seller orders, and a quick summary of recent trades. The spot trading module supports market orders across Southern Asia, the Middle East, Africa, South America and Europe, backed by a real-time order book, live price charts, open-order tracking and full trade history. Tiered KYC verification — identity document plus selfie — defines deposit and withdrawal limits with resubmission on failure, while comprehensive profile and notification settings keep traders in control. An AI-driven referral and matching layer instantly connects refineries, traders and verified suppliers, and auto-drafts smart contracts and LOIs (SPA, ICPO, FCO and SCO templates) with the right incoterms, payment terms and inspection clauses. Built with Next.js, Express, Node.js and AWS, the platform is designed for ease of maintenance and future enhancements, with full source code and deployment documentation delivered.
