# CryptoLink DEX

CryptoLink will be launching its own DEX on each chain that the Any-Any Swap offers.

## Foundation

The CryptoLink any-to-any swap DEX will use an adapted version of the Balancer v2 DEX. At our core, CryptoLink is using the Balancer DEX coupled with our [instant cross-chain bridge ](/printer.financial/components/instant-cross-chain-bridge.md)to fulfil our ultimate goal: To bring the blockchains together and allow crypto users to seamlessly transfer value across blockchains.&#x20;

We chose Balancer because it adopts powerful features to slash gas costs, super-charge capital efficiency, unlock intrachain arbitrage with zero-token starting capital, and it allows for many forms of customization.&#x20;

Please reference <https://docs.balancer.fi/> for more information.&#x20;

## DEX Aggregation

The CryptoLink DEX will enable both intrachain and cross-chain DEX aggregation. This means that projects don't need to host liquidity with us to benefit from our technology. &#x20;

Our proprietary aggregation technology will find your desired token and efficiently route that token swap to its intended destination. For cross-chain transfers, our aggregator will route through our instant cross-chain bridge. **Swapping has never been easier.**&#x20;

## PAPER-Native\* Liquidity Pools

The PAPER-Native liquidity pool is how all the magic happens. This liquidity pool will be hosted on CryptoLink's DEX on all chains that we are on. As stated in [PAPER](/printer.financial/tokens/paper.md) section, the $PAPER token is CryptoLink's bridging token. $PAPER is burned on the source chain and minted on the destination chain, it is then swapped into the PAPER-Native liquidity pool and the swap is then further routed to its destination. &#x20;

Anyone providing LP to Paper-Native would be doing so on CryptoLink's DEX, and receiving the LP rewards from all swaps in and out of $PAPER on CryptoLink's DEX.

See [Fee Structure](/printer.financial/components/any-any-swap/fee-structure.md) and [Liquidity Structure](/printer.financial/components/any-any-swap/liquidity-structure.md) for information on LP rewards and their value.&#x20;

## Hosting Other Pairs

**At the initial launch of the cross-chain any-to-any DEX, CryptoLink will not be allowing external parties to host liquidity with us. We will enable this functionality sometime after launch.**&#x20;

In the meantime, we will happily accept requests once the functionality is available. Please see the link [Work With Us](/printer.financial/b2b-service-suite/work-with-us.md) to submit information about your Project.&#x20;

In the future, LPs hosted on CryptoLink's DEX would be subject to CryptoLink's [Fee Structure](/printer.financial/components/any-any-swap/fee-structure.md) and [Liquidity Structure](/printer.financial/components/any-any-swap/liquidity-structure.md).&#x20;

Benefits:

1. Hosting Liquidity on our DEX will reward in Blockchain Native tokens, as opposed to Project tokens. All fees taken on CryptoLink's Any-Any Swap will be in Blockchain Native tokens. See [Fee Structure](/printer.financial/components/any-any-swap/fee-structure.md) for more info.
2. Hosting liquidity on CryptoLink's DEX will result in less fees incurred upon users swapping in and out of any given LP. If Liquidity is hosted on a different DEX and a user makes a swap in or out of that pair on CryptoLink's Any-Any Swap, the user will incur a minimum fee for using the platform on top of any fees from the DEX that liquidity is being hosted on.

**“PAPER-native LP” refers to the “blockchain native token” paired with $PAPER on a given blockchain. For example, on the Avalanche blockchain, the native token is AVAX. On the Polygon blockchain, the native token is MATIC.**
