What do you mean it doesn't have prices in the orders?

ok, I stand corrected. then the readme doc is just badly written (an order without a price is called market-order). I'll look at it more closely then. with a block based exchange there are plenty of attacks one can do. timing attacks, flooding attacks, ... it certainly can't scale to any meaningful volume, because orderbooks are central datastructures. a possible way to solve this is much more involved.
