Temura

Temura is an AMM with no trader fees and zero gap between buy and sell marginal prices, while still guaranteeing liquidity growth for LPs after every single swap.

Zero Marginal Spread

No gap between buy and sell marginal prices at the same pool state. Execution prices can still vary with trade size.

Guaranteed Liquidity Growth Every Swap

Swaps are proven never to reduce in-range LP liquidity, and growth compounds inside the curve instead of sitting as uncollected fees.

Concentrated & Customizable Ranges

Pick the price range that fits your strategy, in a pool whose kernel and hooks match it.

Provide Liquidity Confidently.

Temura is engineered so that no swap ever reduces in-range LP liquidity, not just on average, but on every single swap.

Higher LP Profitability

With no spread to overcome, arbitrage happens on smaller price moves, and that extra trading grows your liquidity.

Built-in Compounding

LP growth is part of the curve itself, no manual reinvestment, no idle uncollected fees sitting on the side.

Flexible Liquidity Distributions

Concentrate liquidity in your chosen ranges. Each pool’s kernel, set by its owner, shapes how that liquidity is spread.

Shape your liquidity.

Every Temura pool has a kernel: a curve that sets how liquidity is spread across each price interval. Drag a point to reshape it, or start from a preset.

Drag a point. Click the curve to add one, double-click a point to remove it.

Use a preset, then arrow keys to move a breakpoint. Press Insert to add a point, or Delete to remove the focused point.

Backed by Rigorous Research

The Temura yellow paper formalizes the protocol's curve, proves liquidity growth on every swap, and details the customizations that let LPs shape their own distributions. At its core is a strictly concave curve that keeps the pool's price in line with the market: arbitrageurs keep it honest, and every trade compounds LP liquidity.

Frequently Asked Questions

How can Temura charge zero fees and still be profitable for LPs?

Traditional AMMs pay LPs through a fee that creates a spread between buy and sell prices. Temura instead uses a curve whose math guarantees that swaps never reduce in-range LP liquidity, and profit is earned through inherent compounding, not a fee skimmed off each trade.

What does "zero marginal spread" mean for traders?

At the same pool state, there is no gap between the buy and sell marginal prices. This does not mean every buy and sell executes at the same price: a trade can move the pool price, so its average execution price depends on its size and the available liquidity.

Can I still concentrate liquidity in a chosen price range?

Yes. Choose your pool and price range. The pool’s kernel determines how your liquidity is distributed.

Where can I learn the protocol in depth?

Atlas, the protocol documentation, covers the curve, the kernel, hooks and every contract method. The yellow paper has the full proofs.
