HydraSwap: Native Swap Platform in the Radix DLT Ecosystem
HydraSwap is a decentralized application (dApp) for token swapping natively developed for the Radix DLT platform, part of the HYDRA ecosystem a community project associated with the $HYDR memecoin. Designed to facilitate accessible and efficient digital asset exchanges, HydraSwap integrates the Astrolescent API and keys, a leading Radix DEX aggregator that optimizes swap routes across liquidity pools from multiple protocols, such as Astro_Multi and OciSimple, minimizing price impact and fees.
Technical Integration with Astrolescent API
The integration with the Astrolescent API enables HydraSwap to calculate optimal swap routes, accepting parameters like inputToken, outputToken, inputAmount, and fromAddress via POST requests, generating executable manifests directly in the Radix Engine. This API supports advanced features, including fee capture, and returns data such as estimated outputTokens, priceImpact, and detailed routes with specific pools, ensuring permissionless execution compatible with Scrypto the Radix smart contract language focused on digital assets.
Main Features and Benefits
⢠Optimized Swaps: Liquidity aggregation from Radix DEXs for better rates and lower slippage, with manifest support for transactions via Radix Wallet or dApp Toolkit.
⢠Security and Performance: Use of Astrolescent keys for secure authentication, aligned with Radix consensus, which enables sharding parallelism for high scalability without compromising transaction atomicity.
⢠Accessibility: Intuitive interface for buying/selling native Radix tokens (e.g., $XRD, $HYDR), promoting community adoption in the HYDRA ecosystem, which includes games like Battle Arena and monitoring bots.
