Swop

Rejected venues wait the longest for re-review; a rejection has to earn another look before the scheduled date.

Swop is an AMM whose live surveyed pool balances sit on Waves and UNIT0. Providers own pool-share tokens and earn swap fees plus any governance-directed farming rewards, but trading changes the assets represented by those shares. The 2026-08-16 survey measured about $0.24M of pool TVL, excluding separately reported staking, and the version-1 AMM-LP dossier controls regardless of incentives or pool formula.

The research file

Mechanism applicability

Swop describes itself as an AMM with constant-product and flat-curve pools. Users add paired assets, receive pool-share tokens and collect a portion of swap fees; eligible share tokens may also be staked for SWOP farming. Neither a stable curve nor incentive emissions prevents trading from changing the reserves represented by the LP claim.

Control and exit applicability

Published governance materials assign staked SWOP and gSWOP votes to pool weights and other system parameters, and votes can prevent unstaking until cancelled or reduced. A direct LP exits by redeeming pool-share tokens for current reserves; a farmed position first requires withdrawing those shares. Exit depends on reserve depth, token quality, Waves or UNIT0 settlement, contract operation and slippage.

Current observation and corrected perimeter

The DefiLlama API read on 2026-08-16 classified Swop as a DEX and reported approximately $0.24M of pool TVL: about $0.241M on Waves and $0.001M on UNIT0. A separately reported approximately $0.028M Waves staking balance is not added to pool TVL. This corrects the stale Waves-only perimeter.

Why the class rule decides

Swop LPs supply the inventory against which users trade, so their claim can be worth less than simply holding the deposited assets after relative prices change. Governance fees, SWOP emissions, pool-weight voting and alternate curves change compensation or parameters rather than the adverse-conversion mechanism. Reopen only for a separately measured product without pooled trading inventory.

Inherited controls

The verdict above grades the protocol layer. Every position also inherits the asset it holds and the chain it settles on. The least safe layer sets the position’s grade, and the position table names which one that is.
