Decentralized Exchanges (DEXs) using Automated Market Makers (AMMs) enable peer-to-peer trading without intermediaries. Liquidity providers deposit token pairs; traders trade against the pool via formula (like Uniswap's x*y=k). Engineers design AMM mechanisms, optimize for capital efficiency and slippage, and ensure security. Senior practitioners earn 20-35% premium because they ship protocols handling $100B+ in daily volume. Learning: 10-12 weeks.

Kí ni Decentralized Exchange AMM

A Decentralized Exchange (DEX) with Automated Market Maker (AMM) is a protocol enabling permissionless token trading via liquidity pools. Instead of order books (buy/sell orders), traders trade against pools of liquidity. Formula (x * y = k in Uniswap; different curve in Curve) determines price. Liquidity providers deposit capital, earn trading fees + farming rewards. Example: ETH/USDC pool on Uniswap. Provider deposits 10 ETH + $30k USDC. Trader wants to buy ETH. Pool formula: (10 - amount_out) * (30k + amount_in) = 10 * 30k. Solves for amount_out. Trader gets ETH, pays USDC. LP earns 0.3% fee.

What's the difference between x*y=k and concentrated liquidity?

x*y=k (Uniswap v2) spreads liquidity across all prices. Concentrated liquidity (Uniswap v3) lets LPs pick a price range, concentrating capital. V3 is more capital efficient (10-40x) but riskier (IL if price leaves range).

How do I prevent sandwich attacks?

Sandwich: attacker sees your trade in mempool, frontruns with larger trade (pumping price), then backruns with smaller trade (profiting from the pump). Defenses: MEV-resistant mempools (Flashbots), encrypted mempools, threshold encryption.

What's a price oracle in an AMM?

A mechanism to compute fair price. On-chain TWAP (time-weighted average price) from AMM. Chainlink oracles for off-chain prices. Bad oracle = price manipulation risk.

How do I design sustainable LP incentives?

If farming rewards are too high, token inflation spirals. Too low, no liquidity. Balance: start with high yield to bootstrap, gradually decrease as TVL grows. Design for long-term sustainability.

What's a flash swap?

Borrowing tokens from pool, using them, returning with fee in same transaction. No capital required. Example: flash swap ETH, trade it for USDC, sell USDC for more ETH, repay pool with fee, pocket profit.
