[C#] Deserializing bond-like strings into dynamic type about bond HOT 2 CLOSED

I'm not entirely sure what you are trying to do. In your example, what members and values do you expect @object to have?

Right now, the schema string is a snippet of the Bond interface definition language. The code then
"coerces" this into a FastBinary payload. This is not a valid FastBinary payload.

Focusing on just Deserialize<dynamic>.From(reader), no, Bond does not support deserializing into dynamic objects out-of-the-box. You need to deserialize into a object with a known, fixed schema.

To handle arbitrary, unknown schemas one option is to move down a layer and use the protocol readers directly. See for example, issue #1162 "In C# implementation, how to parse to structs separated by BT_STOP_BASE", and issue #1163 "Correct way to read list of mapped values in C#" for examples of someone else processing payloads via readers. Tagged payloads like FastBinary do not include field names. You'll need to get that information from another source, like a SchemaDef that exactly matches the payload when it was created.

Another option would be to implement an algorithm similar to what's in DeserializerTransform but that has a target of a dynamic object. Note: DeserializerTransform isn't a public API, so you'll need to duplicate much of the code if you take this approach.

Let me know if you have any follow up questions or additional details. I'm going to close this issue for now.
