Solution: Slippage Control

The gas problem affects more than just performance and economics. Miner Extracted Value, frontrunning and gas auctions all take advantage of the underlying blockchain’s inability to properly scale in order to take advantage of users and their trades. This often results in massive amounts of gas being spent to eke out every bit of profit opportunity, failing users’ transactions in their wake. Users then worry more about the cost of their transactions failing than their want to trade.

Kadena, with its multi-chain architecture, offers a unique opportunity to minimize this into oblivion by being able to scale any time there is a threat of mempool queues. eckoDEX uses this to create a DEX with no transaction wait times (lightning fast), giving little opportunity for others to frontrun, increasing the success rate of trades, while giving the users industry-leading slippage control to maximize profit.
