Aquarius announces updates and 2024 plans for building AMMs on Stellar using Soroban smart contracts. They've developed CPMM and StableSwap models inspired by Uniswap and Curve, with AQUA rewards for liquidity providers. A new UI and integrations are planned post-Soroban mainnet launch on January 30, 2024.
Aquarius, a key player in Stellar liquidity since 2021, shares their 2023 achievements and 2024 roadmap leveraging Soroban's Rust-based smart contracts. They've built AMM engines on Soroban testnets, implementing Uniswap-style CPMM for general assets and Curve's StableSwap for low-slippage stablecoin trades, plus a decentralized AQUA rewards distribution system. Four core contracts—Liquidity Pool Router, AMM Token, CPMM pool, and StableSwap pool—are ready on GitHub, with security audits by SDF planned. Upcoming features include a new user-friendly UI for swaps, liquidity management, analytics, and governance, plus a Swap Router for integrations. The launch aligns with Soroban's January 30, 2024 mainnet debut, promising enhanced DeFi on Stellar with broad ecosystem interest.
