Everything onchain, priced to reality — a practical guide to swapping and providing liquidity on the MetricSwap protocol.
Decentralized exchanges often show prices that drift away from real market conditions. MetricSwap was built to close that gap. The protocol reads onchain liquidity and prices each trade against actual depth, not a stale quote.
That combination matters more than it sounds. A trader swapping 1 ETH on Arbitrum saves both on fees and on slippage compared to interfaces that add a markup layer.
The flow is short. Most users finish a first swap in under two minutes.
If you want a deeper walkthrough, the knowledge base answers common questions step by step.
Approximate figures for the MetricSwap platform, rounded for readability.
Swaps on MetricSwap settle through the same style of automated market maker design described in the automated market maker article on Wikipedia, and the contracts follow patterns documented in the Ethereum developer docs. If those terms are new, it is worth reading both before depositing real funds — honestly, ten minutes of reading saves most beginner mistakes.
MetricSwap is a decentralized exchange protocol that prices onchain assets against real market data, offering swaps and liquidity pools across networks including Arbitrum.
Connect a wallet, pick a sell token such as ETH, choose a buy token, review the quoted rate, and confirm the transaction in your wallet.
The protocol's smart contracts undergo independent review, and swaps settle onchain so users keep custody of funds until execution.
No. MetricSwap takes no front end fees; you only pay the pool's swap fee and the network gas cost.
Most pools require both sides of a pair, but you can swap part of your balance first, then deposit into the pool on the same network.
Trades execute directly from your wallet with transparent onchain settlement, no account signup, and pricing that tracks real market conditions.
