Liquidity Book significantly enhances capital efficiency over conventional DEXs using the x*y=k AMM. Better capital efficiency, results in larger profits for Liquidity Providers.
Lets explore an example below π
Depositing $100 of liquidity into a tight range, can behave and earn the same as $1000 in a conventional x*y=k AMM.
LBs innovative design even allows for up to 4000x capital efficiency, turning $100 into $400k...#BecauseBins
Concentrating your Liquidity into a tight formation does come with a risk of the IL but can result in big gains, for example, on stablecoin pairs.
Capital efficiency also enhances the experience for Traders, reducing slippage and swap rates...We'll explore that more tomorrow π«‘
Liquidity Book is a new approach to AMMs that aims to fix the inefficiencies of x*y=k, while still retaining the accessibility that has been the cornerstone of success seen in prior AMM models.
Deploying on #Avalanche the chain that is turbo charging #DeFi innovation.

Surge Pricing is a feature that applies a dynamic fee to Trades, this mitigates the impact of IL, helping to protect Liquidity Providers. Dynamic fees are innovative for AMMs and Liquidity Book is pioneering a novel way to do it...
The Liquidity Book #AMM comes with a novel designed Volatility Accumulator. This mechanism measures instantaneous volatility during Swaps, without relying on outside oracles, or complex calculations that can often lag.
Having an accurate volatility measure allows Liquidity Book to change swap fees accordingly:
π Decrease fee
If volatility is low and there is little risk of IL
π Increase fee
If volatility is high and LPs need protection again IL
ποΈLiquidity Book's innovative bin architecture will result in price impact reduction for all swaps
π This helps Traders get the best possible prices for their tokens
β¬οΈ Lower cost Trades also help to capture more Aggregator volume
Discretized bins use a constant sum formula, as opposed to a constant product (x*y=k) formula. Prices on LB are derived from an active bin, if there is enough liquidity in a bin the swap can execute with zero price impact, thanks to the constant sum that is active in the bin.
Bins are particularly beneficial for swaps between stable coins and other pegged assets, as their prices are expected to be equal to each other most of the time, so trades will likely execute in the same bin (providing there is enough Liquidity).

If, like many others in this space, you have no idea what these token standards actually mean...Look no further, this thread will unravel this mysterious lingo.
So get your reading glasses on, it's time to learn π
#Avalanche and other "smart" blockchains allow developers to code pretty much anything they would want. This allows for unprecedented levels of innovation and creativity.
But it also means that some guidelines are needed for things to be able to interact and work together.
Imagine if Alice and Bob wanted to create their own non-fungible tokens. Without a common pre-agreed standard, they could end up with two very different tokens.
In turn, this would mean that #NFT marketplaces would have to account for both Bob's and Alice's implementations.
