Discover how DeepBook is shaping the liquidity future of Sui's finance ecosystem. Learn how to integrate and contribute to this essential component!
Introduction to DeepBook
To establish a robust financial system, liquidity is vital. In traditional finance, centralized exchanges like the New York Stock Exchange and Nasdaq fulfill this role. In decentralized finance, we have decentralized exchanges in the form of Automated Market Makers (AMMs) or Central Limit Order Books (CLOBs).
AMMs simplify liquidity by employing smart contracts to create pools of assets. The exchange rate is determined by the pool's asset allocation and total value, and trades are executed immediately at the set price. In contrast, CLOBs require a trade execution model where both buy and sell orders must be matched by the system. Sui's on-chain order book, DeepBook, offers complete visibility into the order flow, order book depth, and matching process. As a foundational liquidity layer for Sui, DeepBook plays a vital role in providing a centralized limit order book (CLOB) for efficient trading.
DeepBook forms the public CLOB, serving as the foundational liquidity layer for Sui. Its purpose is to provide liquidity for all builders interested in developing financial products on the Sui platform. Similar to traditional finance exchanges that facilitate capital raising, trading, and market making, DeepBook enables various on-chain finance applications on Sui.
DeepBook was designed as a public good for the Sui community, prioritizing execution and user experience over monetization. It doesn't have an associated token or mandatory requirements for users or applications to access and trade on it.
