Written from scratch in Rust, Astroport combines the best pieces of six years of development on the Ethereum blockchain and delivers it on Terra.
It supports two liquidity pool types:
Uniswap’s Constant Product formula pools
Curve’s StableSwap Invariant formula pools
It’s backwards compatible with Terraswap message formats and features and a next-generation user interface.
The marketplace never closes on Astroport. Anyone can set up a merchant stall by supplying liquidity in a pool. Then, anyone else can trade against those tokens at any time.
LPs earn fees. And at launch, they can provide liquidity to earn ASTRO, too. Since all of Astroport’s liquidity lives in smart contracts, it’s programmable.
Other Terra-based dapps can integrate Astroport liquidity directly into their platforms. That means traders throughout the Terra ecosystem always have access to your liquidity.
