Unizen Liquidity Distribution Mechanism (ULDM)

Minimizing Slippage in Decentralized Trading

Introduction The Unizen Trade Engine is a decentralized platform that enables users to trade digital assets across multiple blockchains and decentralized exchanges (DEXs) without worrying about the complexities of different protocols and platforms. One of the platform's key features is the Unizen Distributed Liquidity Mechanism (ULDM), a unique liquidity aggregation and routing system designed to minimize slippage in decentralized trading.

Slippage in Decentralized Trading Trading Slippage is a common problem in trading, especially in decentralized environments, where liquidity is fragmented across multiple DEXs. When a trader places an order on a DEX, the price of the asset they are buying or selling can fluctuate due to market movements or the impact of their own trades on the market. This can result in slippage, where the final execution price of the trade differs from the price the trader expected to pay or receive.

Unizen Distributed Liquidity Mechanism (ULDM) ULDM addresses the problem of slippage by combining two key elements: Smart Liquidity Routing and a custom "trade splitting" algorithm. Smart Liquidity Routing enables Unizen to identify the best available liquidity across multiple DEXs, ensuring that trades are executed at the best possible price. The trade splitting algorithm further minimizes slippage by breaking up larger orders into smaller pieces and executing them across multiple DEXs simultaneously. ULDM is supported by a team of researchers from the University of Mallorca who work with Unizen to refine the algorithm and improve its performance. Together, these two elements create a powerful liquidity aggregation and routing system that significantly reduces slippage, enhancing the trading experience for Unizen users.

Conclusion In conclusion, Unizen's ULDM is a powerful tool that addresses one of the most significant challenges facing decentralized trading today: slippage. By combining Smart Liquidity Routing with a custom trade splitting algorithm, ULDM enables traders to execute trades at the best possible price while minimizing slippage. As a result, ULDM is an essential component of the Unizen platform, delivering a superior trading experience to users across multiple blockchains and DEXs.
