Redefining DeFi: The Power of XRPL's Automated Market Maker
?? New Blog Alert" ??
In the rapidly evolving world of Decentralised Finance (DeFi), staying ahead of technological advances is crucial. Our latest blog post delves into a groundbreaking development: the Automated Market Maker (AMM) on the XRP Ledger (XRPL).
?? Why XRPL's AMM is a Game Changer
Unlike traditional AMMs in DeFi, which operate based on smart contracts, the XRPL's AMM is integrated directly at the ledger’s consensus layer and protocol level. This approach promises to revolutionize the DeFi landscape by offering:
- Enhanced transaction speed due to native integration.
- Reduced operational costs, making DeFi more accessible.
- Greater efficiency through innovative liquidity pool management.
?? Research Highlights
The recent study "Automated Market Maker on the XRP Ledger" conducted by experts from University College London, DLT Science Foundation, Nanyan Technological University, and Ripple Labs Inc., offers profound insights:
- Comparative analysis with established AMMs like Uniswap.
- Demonstrated improvements in slippage reduction, price synchronisation, and overall operational efficiency.
- Introduction of a Continuous Auction Mechanism, optimizing arbitrage and price alignment with external markets.
?? Implications for the Future of DeFi
The XRPL-AMM's implementation at the consensus layer and protocol level is not just a technical enhancement. It represents a significant step forward in the DeFi domain, offering a highly efficient alternative to existing AMMs and paving the way for more innovative, inclusive financial solutions.

An outstanding comprehensive report that proves the powerful design of XRPL AMM at Network Layer & its novel continuous auction mechanism. Report showcases XRPL’s native advantages in micro fees & blazing txn speed combined with AMM’s CAM it dominates Uniswap in all metrics compared. Most notably in times of HIGH VOLATILITY the XRPL AMM “Harvests” the Volatility and converts it into Yield which significantly increases LP earnings from arbitrageurs winning slot bid paid in LP tokens that are redistributed proportionately to all LP’s every new slot auction. It was unclear how much additional revenue this would generate for LP’s and its impact on arbitraging. Results not only prove CAM solves a problem of all AMM’s it goes beyond eliminating, to turning the volatility into ADDITIONAL yield that is harvested in addition to Fee revenue and it also positively impacts slippage reduction, price synchronization, and increased volume. Comparison to Fee revenue as Volume increases as volatility increases, which naturally increases FEE revenue for LP’s. The simulation shows that the sharp increase in % of revenue coming from CAM vs FEES shifts to CAM revenue surpassing FEE revenue as volatility rises sharply. More $ for LP’s ?? ??BOOM????????
