Creating a Pool
Aquarius AMMs enable anyone to create liquidity pools using tokens available on the Stellar blockchain or Soroban smart contract layer. Currently, two types of pools can be created: Volatile and Stable Swap.
Pool Creation Cost: 300,000 AQUA
Pool Types
Volatile Pools
Based on Uniswap v2, this AMM type is similar to Stellar’s native AMM pools.
Pool creators can set different trading fees: 0.1%, 0.3%, or 1%.
Stable Swap Pools
Designed for assets with a 1:1 price ratio (e.g., ETH/yETH, USDC/yUSDC).
Not recommended for volatile assets, as this could lead to the loss of deposited funds.
Supports up to three assets per pool (with four coming in a future update).
Offers customizable fees between 0.1% and 1%.
