Battle-tested technology powering developer integrations is now available directly to end users, delivering seamless cross-chain swaps across 12 blockchains with competitive fees.
ZUG, SWITZERLAND – October 21, 2025 — SODAX today launched cross-chain swaps to the public on <a href="https://sodax.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">sodax.com</a>, introducing intent-based liquidity routing that enables users to trade assets across a dozen blockchains—including Solana, Sui, Base and Ethereum L2s—in 20-30 seconds at a fixed 0.2% fee.
Internal testing against leading aggregator deBridge showed that a $3,800 ETH swap from Arbitrum to Solana saved users about $52, or 1.37%, in execution costs when including fees. All fees on SODAX are included in each quote, while competitors may add them on after the quote.
"We're finally seeing independent blockchains become a larger network, where interoperability is becoming more and more important," said Min Kim, Founder of SODAX. "Eight years ago, we had a vision of how the future would unfold. Now we're at the forefront of that change."
Protocol-Owned Liquidity Meets Intent-Based Routing
SODAX’s architecture enables it to deliver predictable, low-cost execution even under volatile market conditions, addressing one of DeFi’s longest-standing pain points: fragmented liquidity across different networks.
Unlike traditional aggregators that rely on third-party liquidity, SODAX maintains its own deep reserves across supported chains, executing trades directly through its Solver engine. The Solver identifies optimal swap routes across leading decentralized exchanges, handling all bridging and cross-chain messaging in a single, MEV-protected transaction.
SODAX’s Solver, which finds the most competitive rates for trades between specified assets, executes with just 0.1% output variance, leading to more predictable costs. “Users don’t have to think about slippage—it’s simpler, faster, and cheaper,” said Alexandre Chirouze, Development Lead at SODAX.
Proven Technology, Now Available to Everyone
This launch, making the technology directly available to SODAX users, builds on live integrations with <a href="https://app.balanced.network/trade" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Balanced DeFi</a>, <a href="https://www.amped.finance/swap" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Amped Finance</a>, and <a href="https://www.hana.money/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Hana Wallet</a>, where SODAX’s SDK powers instant swaps for non-custodial users.
“Since switching to SODAX, swaps have been lightning fast and smooth,” said David Winkels, Head of Product at Hana Wallet. “Users can trade across any supported chain in under 30 seconds, without bridges or wrapped tokens.”
Following Hana Wallet's integration of the SODAX SDK, the platform saw weekly top-up volume surge nearly ninefold, peaking at over $4,000 within weeks, he said.
SODAX’s SDK enables wallets, DEXs, and DeFi apps to integrate cross-chain swaps in weeks rather than months, offering developers a unified solution to liquidity management without custom infrastructure.
Eight Years in the Making
Originally founded as ICON in 2017, SODAX draws from nearly a decade of experience in cross-chain technology. Its evolution from a Layer 1 blockchain to a protocol-first DeFi platform allows the team to focus entirely on optimizing liquidity, execution, and developer experience.
Swaps represent the first step in SODAX's broader product roadmap. The platform plans to launch its money market interface in Q1 2026, offering cross-chain lending and borrowing with the same intent-based simplicity.
"Our ultimate goal is for mainstream users to be able to tap into DeFi," said Kim. "We want to make these experiences better so anyone can use this."
