MARKET SIGNALING
Krypton's matching engine works not on the typical variables of price and quantity, but on price and speed of execution. Essentially, we turn a personal preference for speed into a public market signal.
Why would we do that? Urgency to execute is a great proxy for whether or not a trader is trying to monetize a short-lift signal versus trading based on longer-term fundamentals.
With Krypton, traders that urgently want to transact are forced to signal to the market that they might have time-sensitive information, which provides the market with the opportunity to react accordingly.
For institutions in DeFi, this means market makers can tighten their bid-ask spreads without taking on additional risk. It also means better risk-adjusted returns to yield farming, and of course better execution in general.
WHY IT WORKS
COST-EFFECTIVE COMPUTATION
Another major advancement with Krypton is computational power: We've moved all computations off-chain, making it cheaper to power our sophisticated trade engine.
That engine doesn't just match buy-sell orders, it optimizes them. Krypton executes large trades in tiny quantities over an optimized period of time, which protects institutions from getting creamed by MEV, impermanent loss, and price slippage.
If you maintain your crypto assets under the custody of our smart contract, we can also deliver a massive reduction in gas fees.
