Ripple Puts UniSwap-AMM Into Consideration In Quest To Bring Better And Faster DeFi potential To XRPL

It is good to note that XLS30d is listed in the XRPLF.ORG GitHub as a proposal that is presently under consideration. Although is not currently an amendment offer being voted on.

The whole idea is that the XRPL AMM makes arbitrage faster, with reduced risk, while increasing profits for liquidity providers all while increasing liquidity in the system overall.

What Are AMMs

It is called automated market markers, they are part of the DeFi ecosystem which allows digital assets to be traded in a permissionless and automatic way by using liquidity pools rather than a traditional market of buyers and sellers.

It also made available the liquidity pools with crypto tokens, whose price is calculated by a fixed mathematical formula that was proposed by a crypto proponent, Vitalik Buterin.

For instance, on a traditional exchange platform exchange, buyers and sellers offer up various prices for a commodity and when the users find a listed price to be acceptable, they will give a go-ahead a trade and the price becomes the asset’s market price.

The price of these pooled tokens is calculated as earlier mentioned. In the long run, arbitrage keeps prices everywhere near an equal level, this is a picture of UniSwap HB.

 Arbitrage Transaction

In the course of the XLS-30d discussion, it was noted, how users have to wait until the profit from the arbitrage transaction surpasses the trading fees that are waiting for the profit to get so big to profit. Then they pull tokens out to be sold at the liquidity pool’s expense which was why the XLS-30d was being considered to get out of the issue.

In the video by Schwartz, it was stated there that XLS-30d allows those who supply liquidity to take a large share of profits that would normally go to arbitragers. Github also described a function that continuously auctions off zero-fee trading slots for arbitragers and gives these sums to liquidity providers, speeding up arbitrage because there is no trading fee eating potential profit.

Potential Solutions To Arbitrages

• Toward settling the issue mentioned above, the AMM instance was introduced to continuously auction-off trading advantages for a 24-hour slot at zero trading feel.  With this, anyone can bid for the slot with the units of LPtokens. The slot-holders can send the arbitrage transaction immediately without the need to wait for their profits to exceed the trading fee, thus eliminating the race condition for them.
• Also, the time window is reduced for which the pool suffers decreased trading volume.
• Part of the proceeds LPtokens from the auction are deleted or burnt which effectively spikes LP token holders’ ownership in the pool proportionally.

With this XRPL AMM mechanism, there will be increased liquidity and pool-supplier profits while there is an allowance for the arbitrage to be profitable
