Traditionally, exchange on a centralized wallet means that a user and a buyer must be matched with a price that is agreed upon by both. This comes with a slew of issues for both parties.
For the buyer it means that to acquire more assets they must list a purchase price for them, and only receive what they purchased once a seller has been found. This means that while some transactions can happen quickly, there is no guarantee how long it might take.
In addition, this leaves opens the possibility that a listed transaction may not even occur.
When building Squirrel wallet it was clear that this solution was not good enough.
The Squirrel Wallet has a built-in automated market maker or (AMM) for short. This is an verifiable algorithm that automates price changes based on the market demand. Operating 24/7 there is no down time, and no delay for users interacting with their tokens.
This is what builds the foundation of the "decentralized" part of the Squirrel Wallet.
The fully decentralized nature means that Squirrel wallet users are able to:
Purchase tokens without needing to wait for sellers
Provide Liquidity with unused tokens to generate additional rewards in the form of LP tokens
Stake their tokens to earn NUTS
Stake or redeem their earned Liquidity Tokens
All of this can be found easily in the Squirrel navigation bar
