AMM Design

Definition

AMM Design refers to the structural framework of an Automated Market Maker. This framework dictates how liquidity pools operate and how asset prices are determined algorithmically without traditional order books. It involves selecting specific mathematical functions to manage asset ratios, impacting trading costs and capital efficiency within decentralized exchanges. Different designs address concerns like impermanent loss and slippage, influencing user experience and protocol stability. Optimizing these designs is key for decentralized exchange competitiveness.
