What is SushiSwap V3?

SushiSwap V3 is the latest iteration of the popular decentralized exchange (DEX) protocol, SushiSwap. It introduces several innovative features that enhance capital efficiency, flexibility, and trading experience for liquidity providers and traders alike. Built on top of the Ethereum blockchain, SushiSwap V3 aims to revolutionize the way users interact with decentralized finance (DeFi) applications.

Key Features of SushiSwap V3

Concentrated Liquidity

SushiSwap V3 allows liquidity providers to concentrate their capital within custom price ranges, providing greater liquidity at desired prices. This feature enables up to 4000x capital efficiency relative to previous versions, resulting in higher returns on capital for liquidity providers.

Multiple Fee Tiers

Liquidity providers can choose from multiple fee tiers, allowing them to be appropriately compensated for taking on varying degrees of risk. This flexibility ensures that providers can optimize their returns based on their risk tolerance and trading preferences.

Advanced Oracles

SushiSwap V3 incorporates advanced oracles that provide time-weighted average prices (TWAPs) on demand for any period within the last ~9 days. This feature simplifies the integration of SushiSwap's oracles, making them easier and cheaper to use for various applications.

Range Orders

SushiSwap V3 introduces range orders, allowing traders to specify price ranges for their trades. This feature gives traders greater control over their transactions and enables the creation of non-fungible liquidity positions.

Improved User Experience

SushiSwap V3 features an enhanced user interface and improved user experience, making it more intuitive and accessible for both novice and experienced users. This includes features such as better token search, improved transaction history, and streamlined navigation.
