Gradually, then suddenly.

Now tracking @angstromxyz on @ethereum Angstrom is a hybrid DEX built on Uniswap V4 that uses app-level sequencing to internalize MEV, allowing LPs to earn arbitrage profits instead of external actors

Timely to see this currently happening live in Angstrom! At current liquidity levels, the gas-imposed bid-ask spread is ~$1.75 for WETH/USDC – the top-of-block auction is consistently bidding any excess Binance deviation beyond this spread back to LPs. In the short term, increasing the underlying liquidity will further tighten this spread and amortize the fixed gas cost over all active liquidity in the range of reference-price deviations, which will effectively bid all common value (that is currently being extracted from other pools) back to Angstrom LPs. From here, increasing sandwich-resistant swaps going through the batch and solvers + routers sourcing liquidity from Angstrom in the pool-unlock state for composable swaps will result in positive markouts and incentivize further liquidity migration to Angstrom. This is a potent and inevitable positive feedback loop.

Feeling vindicated. Long live ACE ASS is dead

Angstrom is live! Their protocol—a real-time batch auction built on Uniswap v4 that returns its revenue to LPs—is one of the most ambitious and promising efforts to fight LVR and MEV

angstrom is now live on mainnet tldr, dex designed to defeat arbitrage bots by redirecting value back to users im excited just from the branding alone (oh and because it’s built on uniswap v4 and has transformative tech)

DeFi summer is back. This time the yields are real.

MEV stole your gains—Angstrom gives them back. Live on Mainnet now.

Imo @angstromxyz making LPs acc profitable in expectation is a pretty big 0 to 1
