Live mid-market FX rates with a customer-confirmed rate lock window (typically 45 seconds) before settlement. The rate the customer sees is the rate they pay — no post-confirmation slippage. MOD-025 fetches live rates, locks the agreed rate for the confirmation window, and executes the dual-currency ledger posting atomically if the customer confirms in time.
