Protocol Specific Execution

Execution

Protocol Specific Execution denotes the precise instantiation of a trading order contingent upon the rules and infrastructure of a particular blockchain network or decentralized exchange (DEX). This differs from centralized exchange execution by directly interacting with smart contracts and on-chain liquidity pools, influencing slippage and transaction costs. Consequently, understanding the nuances of each protocol’s execution environment is paramount for optimal order routing and minimizing adverse selection.
