1. Project introduction

Hashflow is a decentralized exchange designed for interoperability, zero slippage, and MEV-protected trades.

Most DEXs rely on automated market makers (AMMs) to enable the buying and selling of assets, and although important, they’re far from perfect. AMMs are capital inefficient, routinely prone to risks like sandwich attacks and impermanent loss, and cannot price non-spot assets.

By using a request-for-quote (RFQ) model to allow professional market makers to manage liquidity pools, Hashflow solves these issues. In turn, traders and liquidity providers (LPs) gain access to enhanced efficiency, security, and products previously impossible in DeFi.

Instead of a constant-product pricing function commonly used by AMMs, Hashflow allows market makers to source liquidity and price assets using off-chain pricing functions, backed by cryptographic signatures.

By moving pricing off-chain, market makers can use more sophisticated pricing strategies that factor in off-chain data like historic asset prices, volatility, and other real-world information that allows them to effectively price assets.
