Angstrom Overview
Angstrom is a new kind of DEX built on top of Uniswap V4 that internalizes its MEV through application-level sequencing. By enforcing its own transaction ordering, Angstrom redirects value that would normally be extracted by MEV bots and validators back to the actual participants—liquidity providers and swappers.
Why use Angstrom?
For Liquidity Providers
- LPs Recoup Arbitrage: Traditional AMMs leak immense value to arbitrageurs (Loss-Versus-Rebalancing). Angstrom runs an arbitrage Auction every block, internalizing that value and redirecting it straight to LPs. For the first time, LPs retain their value when prices move instead of losing to arbitrage.
- Maximize fees: Now unburdened by what has been—namely, relentless arbitrage— LPs can deploy highly concentrated, dynamically managed positions, achieving superior capital efficiency and dramatically increasing fee revenue, driving tighter spreads and deeper liquidity.
For Traders
- MEV-Free Execution: All trades in a block clear at a uniform price via our batch auction, making sandwich attacks impossible.
- Get The Best Of On & Off-Chain Liquidity: Angstrom’s batch auction merges off-chain limit orders and AMM liquidity into a single, unified market—delivering best in class execution and market depth.
- Gasless Swaps: Trade without ever needing ETH in your wallet—Angstrom handles it for you.
- Zero Priority Fees: Unless the block is full, you never need to pay priority fees.
- 50% Lower Gas Costs: Angstrom’s lean contract design and batch execution slash gas costs by half compared to Uniswap V3/V4.
- Lower Trading Fees: Shielded from toxic arbitrage, LPs can sustainably reduce their trading fees.
For Token Issuers
- Reduce subsidy reliance: With LPs shielded from arbitrage and earning genuine trading fees, protocols no longer need to deploy exorbitant token incentives to attract liquidity.
