Trade

Trade any token onchain — Select tokens, enter an amount, and execute. Pennysia calculates the output and routes the trade automatically.

Every swap generates trading fees distributed to liquidity providers and the protocol treasury.

📖 TIP

The interface handles routing automatically. You don't need to think about single-hop or multi-hop — just pick your tokens and swap.

Routing

Single Hop

A direct trade through one pool: A → B.

• Lower gas cost
• Simple, predictable price

Multi Hop

When no direct A↔B pool exists, Pennysia routes through intermediate tokens: A → X → B.

• Access to any token pair
• Better price by routing through deeper liquidity

DEX Aggregator Integration

To ensure our liquidity is optimally utilized, we aim to integrate with major DEX aggregators. This means:

• Best price, always — Aggregators route trades through the deepest liquidity, including ours, giving traders the best execution price regardless of trade size
• Wider reach — Our liquidity is accessible to users across other protocols and platforms, not just Pennysia directly
• Better capital efficiency — More volume through our pools means more fees earned by LPs

ℹ️ INFO

The full list of integrated DEX aggregators will be announced at mainnet launch.

Price Impact & Slippage

Term	What it means
Price impact	How much your trade moves the price — larger trades in smaller pools = higher impact
Slippage	The difference between your quoted price and the actual execution price

Price impact is predictable. Slippage also includes price changes from other transactions that happen before yours is confirmed.

Protection Settings

Slippage Tolerance

Set a maximum acceptable deviation (e.g. 0.5%). If the final price is worse than this, the transaction reverts automatically.

Example: Expecting 100 USDC for 0.05 ETH with 1% tolerance → you'll receive at least 99 USDC, or the trade cancels.

Setting it too low may cause failed transactions. Too high exposes you to sandwich attacks.

Deadline

Set a time limit for your transaction. If not confirmed within the deadline, it reverts — preventing execution at stale prices during network congestion.
