Uniswap is a decentralized exchange that facilitates automated transactions between Ethereum-based tokens. It is designed to be an open-source platform with an automated market maker (AMM) model. Instead of using an order book, token trades are facilitated directly between users through a liquidity pool and prices orders with an algorithm that relies on the equation x*y=k to create a price spectrum for token pairs available in the liquidity pools provided by other users. Uniswap tokens are used as a governance token and as an incentive for users to fund the liquidity pools. Since the platform is decentralized, all the trading fees collected are distributed among the liquidity providers; according to the share that they provide in the liquidity pools.
Uniswap is one of the largest decentralized exchanges (DEX) and one the largest cryptocurrency exchanges overall by daily trading volume. The platform was originally created by Hayden Adams, a former mechanical engineer at Siemens. It is backed by some influential venture capital funds, including: Andreessen Horowitz, Paradigm Venture Capital, and Union Square Ventures.

Blocknet is a cross-chain protocol for inter-chain transactions and a decentralized exchange. It is primarily focused on connecting blockchain networks, but is also developing a decentralized exchange to enable trade digital assets across separate blockchains. It is meant to connect the growing number of blockchain projects and make them inter-operable. Blocknet uses a Proof-of-Stake (PoS) consensus mechanism that has three different types of nodes to verify transactions. The network is powered by the BLOCK coin.

The Bakery Token fuels the Bakery Swap ecosystem, which offers liquidity pools for a variety of altcoins. Users can earn BAKE tokens by providing liquidity on Bakery Swap's platform in exchange for a portion of the trading fees generated. Bakery Token holders can also use their tokens to participate in governance voting and to receive transaction fee dividends. Bakery Swap uses a decentralized automated market-making (AMM) protocol that is built on the Binance Smart Chain. It was created by an anonymous group of developers and is governed by a DAO structure.
