1. Purpose and Philosophy
Axiora is a decentralized, non-custodial exchange protocol that enables users to swap virtually any supported cryptocurrency through a combination of internal liquidity pools and interconnected external services. The guiding principles are self-custody, permissionless access, optimal execution, and transparent fees.
2. High-Level Architecture
At the core are smart contracts that (a) manage internal pools, (b) quote and execute swaps, and (c) optionally route orders across external decentralized exchanges when this yields better results. The web interface is a convenience layer: it helps you discover prices, configure slippage and gas, and send transactions from your wallet. Execution always happens on-chain under your signature.
3. Internal Liquidity Pools
Users can deposit tokens into pools to become liquidity providers (LPs). Pools may follow constant-product, stableswap, or hybrid curves depending on the asset pair. In return for supplying liquidity, LPs receive pool tokens or accounting shares representing their pro-rata ownership. Swap fees accrue to the pool and are claimable by LPs according to pool mechanics.
4. External Routing and Best Rate Logic
The routing engine compares internal pool quotes with quotes available via integrated decentralized exchanges or aggregators. If an external route offers better net execution after fees and estimated slippage, the trade (or parts of it) may be split and routed accordingly. The engine may also account for gas costs, liquidity depth, price impact, and historical reliability when selecting routes. Pre-trade previews are indicative; final settlement depends on the state of the chain at the time of inclusion.
5. User Flow (Trading)
Connect a wallet (e.g., WalletConnect-compatible or browser extensions), choose the token you wish to sell and the token you wish to receive, review the estimated rate, fees, and slippage tolerance, then authorize the transaction. The smart contracts transfer tokens atomically, delivering the output asset back to your wallet if the on-chain price remains within your slippage bounds. If not, the transaction may revert to protect you from excessive price impact.
6. User Flow (Providing Liquidity)
Select a pool, review parameters (fee tier, curve type, supported tokens), deposit assets, and receive pool shares. Over time, fees earned by the pool are reflected in your share value or claimable rewards. Withdrawing burns your shares and returns the underlying assets subject to pool conditions and current ratios.
7. Fees
Each swap incurs (i) a protocol/pool fee disclosed in the interface and (ii) a network fee paid to the blockchain. When routing externally, external protocol fees may apply and are implicitly reflected in the quote. Fees are optimized to remain competitive while sustaining pool incentives and protocol development.
8. Security Model
Contracts are designed to be minimal, auditable, and upgrade-aware if governance so decides. Nevertheless, no contract is risk-free. We encourage you to (a) verify contract addresses from official sources, (b) review audits if available, (c) use hardware wallets, and (d) start with small transactions until you are comfortable with the workflow.
9. Risk Disclosure
Using decentralized finance involves risks: market volatility, smart contract bugs, oracle or liquidity failures, MEV and frontrunning, failed or partially filled transactions, and changes in law or regulation. Axiora cannot reverse on-chain actions or guarantee profits. Only use funds you can afford to lose and consider independent professional advice.
10. Governance and Roadmap
Parameters such as fee tiers, supported assets, new integrations, and routing heuristics may be proposed and ratified through decentralized governance if implemented. The roadmap contemplates multi-chain expansion, Layer 2 integrations for lower fees, additional pool types for specialized assets, and continual improvements to the routing algorithm and UX.
11. Support and Contact
As a decentralized protocol, support is primarily community-driven via forums, docs, and repositories. For coordination or disclosure of security issues, contact us.
