SundaeSwap: Cardano's Premier Decentralized Exchange

About SundaeSwap

SundaeSwap is the leading decentralized exchange (DEX) built on the Cardano blockchain, launched in January 2022. It enables users to trade Cardano-native tokens in a completely decentralized, non-custodial environment while maintaining full control of their assets.

As an Automated Market Maker (AMM), SundaeSwap uses liquidity pools rather than traditional order books to facilitate trading. This innovative approach allows for permissionless trading of any Cardano-native token paired with ADA or other supported tokens.

The platform is governed by SUNDAE token holders who vote on key protocol decisions, ensuring the platform evolves in a decentralized manner that benefits the entire Cardano ecosystem.
