Decentralized finance (better known as DeFi) is a set of peer-to-peer financial services running on decentralized blockchains, most commonly Ethereum. Uniswap has been one of Ethereum’s hottest projects ever since its launch in late 2018. But can the rise of SushiSwap endanger its very presence? This article is delves into the infamous Uniswap Vs Sushiswap competition, comparing their pros and cons for users, liquidity providers, and token holders. What are decentralized exchanges (DEX)? The most prevalent decentralized exchanges or protocols are UniSwap, Curve, SushiSwap, and Balancer. All of these DEXs are based on the Ethereum blockchain. A decentralized exchange allows the trade of one coin for another, while maintaining custody of the coins in the hands of the users, contrary to CEXs (centralized exchanges) that keep their users’ coins under the custody of the exchange. How do Uniswap and Sushiswap work? Uniswap and Sushiswap are DEXs working on the AMM principle (Automatic Market Maker). Unlike regular exchanges, AMMs don’t require order books to set the price of a pair. AMMs also don’t require a buyer and a seller on opposite ends to execute a trade. Instead, AMMs use liquidity pools. Any user can access these pools to buy or sell their tokens, while the price is determined by the ratio of the two assets within a trading pair’s pool. For example, if the ETH/USDT pool has 100 ETH and 60,000 USDT, the price of 1 ETH would be equal to 600 USDT (60,000/100=600). As users buy or sell their ETH or USDT, the ratio within the pool changes, which is reflected in the change of the price. The liquidity itself is also provided by users. In fact, anyone can supply liquidity to a pool, earning them fees.
