Deep Dive
1. Proactive Market Maker (PMM) Technology
Unlike traditional automated market makers (AMMs), DODO’s PMM algorithm uses oracles to reference real-time market prices, concentrating liquidity near these levels. This reduces capital inefficiency and impermanent loss for liquidity providers. For traders, it minimizes slippage – a key advantage for large orders. The PMM also allows single-sided liquidity provision, lowering barriers for projects launching tokens via its Initial DODO Offering (IDO) mechanism (DODO Docs).
2. Tokenomics & Governance
The DODO token (ERC-20) powers governance and ecosystem incentives:
- vDODO: A membership token (1 vDODO = 100 staked DODO) grants voting power, fee discounts, and revenue shares.
- Supply: Fixed at 1 billion tokens, with 60% allocated to community incentives like liquidity mining.
- Governance: Proposals (DIPs) require 100k DODO or 1k vDODO to submit, with voting weighted by holdings (DODO Governance).
DODO offers infrastructure for developers and traders:
- Trading Widget: Embeddable swap interface for third-party apps, used by platforms like DAO Maker.
- Cross-Chain Swaps: Aggregates liquidity across Ethereum, BNB Chain, and Layer 2 networks.
- Analytics Dashboard: Tracks real-time liquidity, trading volumes, and pool performance (DODO Dashboard).
Conclusion
DODO combines advanced market-making tech with a decentralized governance model, positioning itself as a flexible liquidity hub for both traders and developers. Its PMM algorithm addresses critical DeFi pain points, while tools like the Trading Widget expand its utility across ecosystems. With plans for DODO V3 introducing leveraged liquidity pools, can it maintain its edge in an increasingly competitive DEX landscape?
