What is AethonSwap?
AethonSwap is a next-generation decentralized exchange (DEX) being developed as the core liquidity hub for Monad, a high-performance blockchain. The platform integrates concentrated liquidity AMM technology with a modular V4 architecture, enabling low-slippage trading and highly efficient capital deployment across the Monad ecosystem.
The protocol is fully community-owned, distributing 100% of revenue back to users. AethonSwap utilizes a Vote-Escrow 3,3+ model with a built-in burn mechanism, giving token holders the ability to lock tokens for governance power and revenue sharing.
Additional features include:
-
Off-chain rewarder infrastructure
-
Single-asset deposit support
-
Simplified liquidity management with enhanced capital efficiency
