Automated Market Makers (AMMs) & DEXs

Advanced Trading & DeFi

How Decentralized Exchanges Work

Unlike traditional exchanges, DEXs (Decentralized Exchanges) allow users to trade directly from their wallets without a middleman.

🔹 Examples of Popular DEXs:

  • Uniswap (Ethereum)

  • PancakeSwap (BNB Chain)

  • SushiSwap (Multi-chain)

💡 How does it work?
Instead of order books, DEXs use Automated Market Makers (AMMs), where liquidity pools enable instant swaps between tokens.

No KYC needed – Trade anonymously.
Fully decentralized – No single entity controls it.
Earn fees by becoming a liquidity provider.

⚠️ Gas fees on Ethereum-based DEXs can be high—look for layer-2 solutions or other blockchains!
