What is THORSwap and THORChain?

THORChain refers to a self-governing blockchain developed using the Cosmos SDK that operates as a cross-chain DEX (decentralized exchange). It employs an automatic market maker (AMM) model that matches the initial redundancies of Bancor (BNT) or Uniswap, where THORChain's primary token (RUNE) will be the primary swap pair. This model enables traders to shift between numerous asset funds employing RUNE as a somewhat secluded intermediary. It further rewards LPs (liquidity providers), those that stake or collateral assets on either side of a liquidity pool, with a part of trading charges.

THORSwap's first-class design is to grow a world-class cross-chain DEX aggregator, presenting deep liquidity for Traders, Swappers, and Investors to instantly trade hundreds and thousands of assets on various blockchains in a trustless and permissionless way. It involves access for every person to the comprehensive spectrum of financial instruments available in the new and fascinating world of De-Fi and the capacity to trade and invest in any cryptocurrency regardless of geo-location, nationality, or any other means of differentiation.

Also, similar to THORChain's ambition to evolve as a Liquidity Black Hole, THORSwap strives to build a Trading Black Hole where everyone will remain incentivized to exchange through THORSwap notwithstanding the Asset, Wallet or Chain they wish to use. Moreover, if these black holes get consolidated, it will build a robust interface that could engulf almost every crypto exchange

Future of THORSwap and Its Influence on the Dex Ecosystem

Developed on top of THORChain, THORSwap remains the primary multi-chain DEX that employs the THORChain interface to render a front-end user network to complete cross-chain exchanges. 

In addition, THORSwap makes it effortless to convey assets between blockchains and saves exchange expenses, which is a significant move ahead for activities in the crypto space to draw new users. Moreover, the power of THORSwap and THORChain is tremendous because it links blockchains together.
