Dexter Protocol :: Weighted Pool

Dexter's Weighted Pool is based on a particular N-dimensional surface which defines a cost function for the exchange of any pair of tokens held in a Pool which was introduced by Balancer. Dexter's weighted pool accepts maximum 9 tokens and the weights cannot be updated once the pool has been initialized.

Unlike pools in other DeFi protocols that only provide 50/50 weightings, Dexter's Weighted Pools enable users to build pools with different token counts and weightings, such as pools with 80/20 or 60/20/20 weightings.

Note - Dexter's weighted pool accepts an exit_fee parameter during pool initialization. The exit_fee is the % fee charged to the user when liquidity is withdrawn from the pool. 100% of the exit fee charged is distributed among the LPs of the Pool. exit_fee cannot be more than 1%.

Contract State

• Separating Token Accounting and Pool Logic

  The Dexter Pools are responsible only for the math computes which dictate number of tokens to be transferred during swaps / liquidity provisioning events, and do not handle the token transfers themselves. Dexter's Vault queries the Pool contracts to compute how many tokens to transfer and processes those transfers itself.

  This separation simplifies pool contracts, since they no longer need to actively manage their assets; pools only need to calculate amounts for swaps, joins, and exits. Anyone who comes up with a novel idea for a trading system can make a custom pool and have it added to Dexter's PoolType Registery via approval from the Dexter DAO instead of needing to build their own Decentralized Exchange.
