brc20-swap Introduction

Built as a module on top of the brc-20 protocol, brc20-swap allows users swap, provide liquidity and earn brc-20 tokens directly without the need for intermediaries.

The brc20-swap interface

Users can connect their brc-20 supported wallets to swap and provide liquidity on brc20-swap. These docs explain all the features of the app, and provide straightforward walkthroughs on how to use it.

The app consists of three pages:

Swap - the trading interface for executing swaps on brc20-swap and depositing more assets into the module.

Pools - the liquidity provider interface, where LPs can add liquidity to brc20-swap pools

Transactions - interface for users to view the past brc20-swap interactions

brc20-swap operates like most decentralised exchanges: Users deposit assets into liquidity pools, where traders can exchange assets again at prices set by the AMM's math formula.
