Which liquidity sources are used to route Swaps?

SODAX coordinates your trades through leading DEX pools or its own Protocol-Owned Liquidity, all executed in the background by the SODAX Solver.

💡 What’s the easiest way to ensure enough liquidity for smooth trades? Rather than "bribing" liquidity from users, we integrate directly with where it already is.

SODAX doesn't rely on a single pool of money. We coordinate liquidity from multiple places across the ecosystem to make sure your transaction completes successfully.


Where does the liquidity come from?

Depending on your specific trade, SODAX may route your swap through:

  • Local Marketplaces (DEXs): We connect directly to the major decentralized exchanges on the networks you are using (such as Uniswap and others).

  • SODAX Protocol-Owned Liquidity (POL): In some cases, we use assets that are managed directly by SODAX to help smooth out difficult swaps. Find out more on POL in our article on "Why does SODAX own its own liquidity?".

Our Solver network then executes your action across these different sources. You don't need to worry about which specific source is used as SODAX handles this in the background to deliver your intended outcome.


How we decide which sources to add

We believe that liquidity should be open and transparent, not hidden in "black boxes".

When we integrate new liquidity sources, we prioritize decentralized platforms with transparent, participatory liquidity. Our goal isn't just to have the longest list of integrations, but to ensure that when you click swap, the system behaves predictably and the transaction actually completes.


Where to find our liquidity sources

Because the ecosystem moves fast, we maintain a live list of all the networks and liquidity sources currently supported by SODAX here.
