Minswap V2 Launches on Cardano

This week, Minswap, the leading Decentralized Exchange on the Cardano blockchain, launched its much-anticipated V2 version. Packed with new features and substantial improvements, this upgrade promises to revolutionize the trading experience for users. With increased throughput and reduced fees, Minswap V2 is set to become a game-changer in the Cardano DeFi ecosystem. This article will explore Minswap V2, its launch, liquidity migration, and more.

Minswap V2 Launch

On July 10th, 2024, Minswap launched the V2 version of the Minswap DEX. Built using Aiken, an advanced smart contract language on Cardano, this new version offers a tenfold increase in throughput compared to the previous version written in Plutus V1. The launch includes several enhancements, such as Pro Mode for advanced users, deeper analytics, and significantly lower trading fees.

One of the most notable changes is the reduction in batcher fees. For the next three months, batcher fees on Minswap will be reduced by 50%, to just 1 ADA. Users holding $MIN tokens or MIN/ADA liquidity pool tokens can benefit from even lower fees, potentially as low as 0.75 $ADA. After this three-month trial, the community will review the results and establish a fee management strategy, including the formation of a Fee Management Committee. A proposal outlining these plans will be submitted on the Minswap Forum for community discussion and approval.

Liquidity Migration

To fully benefit from Minswap V2, all liquidity providers are encouraged to migrate their liquidity from V1 to V2. The DAO has approved two methods for this migration: automated and manual. After migrating their liquidity, it is crucial for providers to stake their LP tokens in the V2 Farm to continue earning rewards. This staking process ensures that liquidity remains active and beneficial within the new system, optimizing the overall functionality and user experience of Minswap.
