# Polkaswap

> The DEX for the Interoperable Future

Polkaswap is a cross-chain liquidity aggregator DEX on the SORA network that enables asset swaps across Polkadot, Kusama, and bridged blockchains.

Polkaswap helps users trade across the SORA network by aggregating liquidity and offering market and limit orders on a fully on-chain order book. Users can bridge assets to and from several networks, provide liquidity to earn rewards, and access borrowing via Kensetsu. Referral rewards and analytics are available.

## Products

- [Polkaswap](https://thegrid.id/profiles/polkaswap): Polkaswap is a cross-chain liquidity aggregator DEX deployed on the SORA network, combining AMM functionality with an on-chain order book to facilitate non-custodial token swaps. The platform aggregates liquidity from multiple sources through an algorithmic routing system that automatically selects optimal execution paths across available pools. Users can execute market orders for immediate settlement or place limit orders that remain in the order book until price conditions are met. The protocol bridges to Ethereum, Polkadot, and Kusama networks through the HASHI infrastructure, enabling cross-chain asset transfers and trading. (Decentralised Exchange, Live, Main Product)

## Assets

- [Polkaswap (PSWAP)](https://thegrid.id/profiles/polkaswap): PSWAP is the utility and governance token of Polkaswap, a cross-chain DEX on the SORA network. It is used to reward liquidity providers and for governance participation. The protocol uses trading fees to buy back and burn PSWAP tokens, then mints new tokens to reward liquidity providers, creating a deflationary mechanism where the reward rate gradually decreases over time.
