A Single Contract AMM, or Automated Market Maker, is a decentralized exchange protocol where all liquidity pools and trading logic are contained within a single smart contract. This architecture can simplify deployment and potentially reduce gas costs for certain operations. It streamlines the management of various token pairs under one unified system. This design approach aims for efficiency and consolidation within decentralized trading environments.
