The
Rothschild
Architecture

// ARCHITECTURE: Distributed microservices with shared private API
// Five independent nodes · One shared messaging layer
// Core competitive advantage: information latency arbitrage

// ObjC EQUIVALENT — the runtime initialization at Waterloo, 1815:
// method_exchangeImplementations(@selector(participateInMarket), @selector(moveMarketViaInformation))
// method_exchangeImplementations(@selector(financeSingleSide), @selector(financeAllSides))
// The .h declares: international banking family
// The .m runs:     all-sides financing with proprietary information advantage
// Documented: Rothschild Archive · Ferguson, "The House of Rothschild" 1998 · ⭐⭐⭐
