With Trident we have been able to make several optimizations to the traditional Constant Product Pool, making swaps much cheaper for the user. All in all, ‘Constant Product’ pools are the easiest and most general purpose pool to interact with. For tokens with predictable, high-volume events, usually the ‘Concentrated’ pools are best because they allow liquidity providers to capture high fees, and for token pairs with predictable, stable prices, the ‘Stable’ pools are usually best, because they allow users to swap with the lowest slippage. They’re best for pairing tokens that are unpredictable. ‘Constant Product’ pools are composed 50% of one token and 50% of another. They’re sometimes referred to as “lazy LPs”. They are the most “unbiased” automated market maker, as well as the original AMM used in SushiSwap V1.

In this pool, liquidity providers own both of the pool’s assets in a 50:50 ratio. Constant Product PoolĬonstant Product Pools (AMMs) are pools that DeFi users are most familiar with, where trading happens between two assets over the x*y=k constant product formula. These pools are like a starter set for the DAO to prove what is possible using IPool. The team has three additional pool types in the pipeline still (Concentrated, Stable, and Index pools). Next to the Constant Product pool that’s currently for preview on Polygon right now. This interface, is something we call the IPool interface. The concept behind this framework is that hard-coded swap environments like those found in Uniswap, Curve, and Balancer all necessitate the same underlying methods, and can therefore, be consolidated into a single interface. While AMMs can be created using the Trident code, there isn’t a specific AMM at the center of Trident.

You can read more about phase 1 in this blogpost.Īs a reminder, Trident intends to be a production framework for building and deploying AMMs ( built on top of the BentoBox), it is not just an AMM itself. We have recently released the first phase of Trident, the constant product pool is now live on Polygon.
