# Tapp Exchange

> Where Liquidity Flows on Aptos

Tapp Exchange was a decentralized exchange on Aptos. It let users trade tokens and provide liquidity through modular pools with customizable hooks.

Tapp Exchange was a decentralized exchange on the Aptos blockchain. It let users trade tokens, provide liquidity, and earn fees and incentives across automated market maker, concentrated liquidity, and stablecoin pools. Its modular design let developers customize pool behavior through programmable hooks.

Governance followed a vote-escrow model. Holders of the TAPP token locked it to gain voting power over how liquidity incentives were distributed to pools, and voters earned trading fees and bribes from other protocols. Smart order routing sent swaps through the best available pools.

The exchange served traders, liquidity providers, and projects seeking liquidity on Aptos. Its main product was the Tapp Exchange app. The protocol has wound down and no longer operates.
