Why does that matter?

It is not easy to build or launch a DEX. Beyond the redundancy and security risks of writing smart contract protocols, bootstrapping adoption for a DEX is historically difficult, not purely dependent on merit or efficiency, and overall costly. We want to commoditize the DEX stack to a point where merit and efficiency are the main drivers for liquidity and order flow. This entails:

• Lowering the developer entry cost to introduce new DEX designs.

• Commoditize order flow through Valantis-specific collaborative Solvers and Solver network integrations making Valantis pools maximally discoverable.

• Innovative DEX designs accommodating a changing order flow and liquidity provision landscape.

• Creating secure end-user products that offer attractive financial strategies without complexity, built on top of the Valantis Protocol.

• Building off chain infrastructure that extends the properties of onchain finance.
