🚫The Big DEX Hoax: What They Don't Want You to Know
∙ Hidden Price Inefficiencies 📉
∙ The Silent Erosion of Your Privacy 🔍
∙ The MEV Trap: Profits You Never See 💸
The unspoken truths about DEXes everyone's been ignoring...
Until now.
Meet "COMMON" - the GameChanger:
👩💻 We're pleased to announce CTRL+Hack+ZK, the first official hackathon organized by Aleph Zero and supported by major partners! 🎉
🗓️ Jan 10-31, 2024
📝 Sign up:
👏 Kind thanks for all the engagement and such a great AMA turnout!
⏭️ The team will summarize all the remaining questions from the comments and turn them into a summary that will be published soon.
🫡 In the meantime—stay tuned for more!
🎯 Aleph Zero aims to prevent MEV by ensuring true privacy, not pseudonymity, for users and their online activities.
Paired with subsecond time to finality, this opens up an entire array of use cases that were not possible before.
Learn more:
🔥 Common unlocks fair market pricing, liquidity, low fees, private ZK-based orders known only to users until execution, and an enhanced trading experience for institutions in a non-custodial platform with a CEX-like experience. All in one!
Watch this space for updates! 🌌
👉 The tech paper is available here:
The whitepaper has been released as an exclusive preview for the Aleph Zero community. Publishing soon on arXiv/ePrint, followed by a peer-review.
🌊 This mechanism seamlessly aggregates on-chain and off-chain liquidity through bridges, including CEXes and other chains. Plus, it channels a major share of what would be the MEV profits straight back to Common's users.
🥷 Common uses zkSNARKs and a new cryptographic functionality proposed in this design, the Decryption Oracle, for privacy. While zk-SNARKs ensure anonymity, the Oracle, implemented using MPC, safeguards trade amounts confidentiality.
🕶️ As an order book, Common ensures maximum privacy for users. It allows to execute spot trades and set potentially long-standing limit orders. Beyond its internal order-matching capabilities, the engine taps into the external liquidity pools for optimal asset prices.
🔑 Key Takeaways:
⚪️ This is the first rollout of
@get_common
, starting with the AMM on Testnet.
⚪️ Now featuring AMM Swap and the Liquidity Providers mechanism, with the Liquidity Farming feature coming soon.
📈 To enhance price efficiency, a two-tiered order-matching system is introduced. Initial internal matches incur zero fees, and the remaining funds enter a transparent Dutch Auction for Market Makers.
🐞 If you’re a security expert and would like to join the competition, feel free to join through the Hats Finance platform. We’re looking forward to hearing from you!
Let's squash those bugs before they go out into the wild!
🧑💻 We invite white-hat hackers to dive into the Common AMM codebase and report all the findings, together with severity scores!
The audit competition is active between January 18th and 29th.
