Implementations

How it works

"Unlike other AMMs who are only able to access liquidity within their own pools, think Uniswap/PancakeSwap/Sushi, Raydium provides liquidity to Serum’s on-chain central limit order book, granting ecosystem-wide access to all order flow and liquidity on Serum. With the help of Serum, Raydium has brought order books to AMMs, allowing traders to exchange the tokens they are willing to trade at any price. Traditional AMMs don’t allow you to change your price, so you’re almost always taking the worst price in the market. In addition to that, with so much overlapping liquidity in their different offerings, traders end up paying more for slippage because liquidity is fragmented throughout several different pools. Since Raydium provides liquidity to Serum’s CLOB, anyone on Serum can transact against that liquidity and vice versa. Raydium acts as a market maker, taking all the tokens accrued in its LPs to place a series of orders at different prices and sizes on to the orderbook using an equation called the constant product invariant."

Their Other Projects

AcceleRaytor

"Users can participate in two different types of pools for each AcceleRaytor project; Community Pools and RAY Pools. Community Pools are open to the entire community, allowing anyone to participate whether they have used Raydium before or not. RAY Pools are only available for users who hold a minimum number of RAY tokens and have been staking it on Raydium for a set period of time. There are two primary token allocation models; a first come first serve model and guaranteed proportional model. The guaranteed proportional model gives all participants who contributed within the set time period an allocation proportional to their contributed funds as a percentage of total funds contributed. Any funds that exceed the max cap of the pool will be returned. After raising funds through AcceleRaytor, these projects can launch an IDO through Raydium liquidity pools. This will allow the community to quickly provide liquidity and trading the token. Projects can also offer LP farming rewards for LPs immediately after the IDO."

Fusion Pools

"These Fusion Pools are essentially liquidity pools with two partner tokens from within the ecosystem. This allows for these projects to interact with their user base and reward them, in addition to getting an initial boost from the Raydium community. When tokens are added to a liquidity pool, Raydium issues a liquidity provider (LP) token to track what percentage of the pool the owner of this token represents. These tokens can then be farmed to receive rewards. Projects can also sponsor certain pools by adding tokens to a reward pool to further incentive users to hold project tokens and receive additional rewards while providing liquidity."
