Hey @AE_UP,

some work has been done already to faciliate this: https://github.com/aeternity/dex-contracts-v3-abandoned but has not been continued. If you are looking to build something like Uniswap V3 I suggest you apply for a grant and take a look at the contracts :slight_smile:

We will focus our efforts on building the dashboard because we think that this will supply value to the eco system as we currently do not have anything similar.

Thank you very much for your contributions. We currently do not have the capability, but we will continue to pay attention to this matter in the future.

Find it very confusing that you guys are calling this DEX also Superhero.

Can you help me ask what the reasons for the approval of this project are?
This is a project that looks useful. XD
But it’s probably useless.
