  • AutoSwap is a decentralized application launched by Autonomy Network on BSC
  • AutoSwap shall allow limit order, stop loss, loss protection, and recurring payment features on DEXes.
  • AutoSwap shall not only be available on BSC but also on Ethereum, Solana, Polygon, Avalanche and the like.

Autonomy Network has launched a unique decentralized application (DApp) called AutoSwap on Binance Smart Chain (BSC).

The AutoSwap is the first-ever DApp that shall offer limit order, stop loss, loss protection, and recurring payment features for BSC decentralized exchanges (DEXes) like Pancakeswap.

Besides BSC, the AutoSwap shall also be available on most blockchains like Ethereum, Avalanche, Polygon, and Solana that support decentralized application development. The DApp marks a major development within the DeFi ecosystem since it is the first time that the features it is offering have become available for decentralized exchanges.

Limit orders, stop loss, and loss protection features were only available on centralized exchanges. Introducing them on decentralized exchanges enables DEX traders to better manage risk and boost returns without having to stare at the screen 24/7.

According to the co-founder of Autonomy Network, James Key:

DEXes trading automation using Autonomy and AutoSwap

Lack of automation solutions like limit orders, stop losses, loss protection, and recurring payment was a real challenge especially with the exponentially growing trading volumes in DEXes. As a result, several lending DEXes have already partnered with Autonomy to allow their users experience the same features available on centralized exchanges.

Examples of DEXes that have integrated Autonomy include SokuSwap on Binance Smart Chain and Pangolin on Avalanche. ApeSwap on BSC is also on the way to integrating Autonomy.

By using Autonomy Network, which is an off-the-shelf decentralized automation protocol, crypto market traders can automate their orders to stay active even when the traders go to sleep. AutoSwap makes things even better by enabling the traders to better manage any losses.

Besides automating trading, Autonomy can be integrated into lending protocols, DAO management tools, metaverse projects, and NFT projects to set up arbitrary actions to be triggered under arbitrary conditions. SushiSwap’s lending platform Kashi is a perfect example. It has integrated Autonomy to offer automating self-liquidations.

It is important to note that all these developments are happening before Autonomy Network launches its native token. It has scheduled the Initial DEX Offering (IDO) of its token in February this year.
