#40 Osmosis: The Interchain AMM Protocol

On the show today we have Sunny Aggarwal and Josh Lee, co-founders of Osmosis. Osmosis is a fair-launched, customizable automated market maker for interchain assets. Osmosis’ differentiator compared to other decentralised exchanges is the customisation it gives all participants in the network. For example, liquidity pool creators have the flexibility to create their own formulas and fees that determine prices of assets. Liquidity providers have customisable tools to provide liquidity to suit their own risk preferences. Whilst users can swap any asset connected to the IBC, making it the world’s first truly interoperable AMM. During the show, we discuss Osmosis network launch, the first stress-test of IBC, the importance of privacy on DEXs, reverse staking derivatives and more.
