TL;DR Intents are changing DeFi and users are getting better onchain experiences as intent-based systems grow. Intents are best known for offering end users speed and price benefits but they also offer token issuers (and other LPs) a way to provide liquidity in an MEV-aware manner. Arrakis proves this with HOT AMM, which empowers LPs through an MEV-aware, intent-based design.

TL;DR Arrakis is evolving as we build DeFi’s first vertically-integrated liquidity solution. As part of this new chapter, we unveil Arrakis Pro, our revamped market making solution built to support token issuers. Arrakis Pro is designed to give token issuers capital-efficient, MEV-aware, market making strategies for every stage of their token lifecycle. Arrakis Pro’s modular design makes it easy for projects to deploy strategies on any liquidity protocol, on any chain.

TL;DR LPs are losing out to MEV extraction and LVR in today’s DeFi landscape. But several new AMM designs such as HOT are pioneering ways to protect LPs by reducing LVR. These approaches rely on offchain systems such as oracles and auctions and they offer a preview into how LPing could become more sustainable in DeFi in the future.

TL;DR HOT, the MEV-aware, intent-centric AMM built on Valantis, is live now. Arrakis developed HOT to empower LPs and make onchain markets more sustainable. HOT breaks new ground in MEV recapture and the AMM design space and its launch marks a step forward for the DeFi ecosystem.

TL;DR CVMMs are profiting from retail DeFi users across the MEV supply chain. Arrakis is building the first decentralized alternative to address this problem, using cutting-edge mechanisms to recapture MEV, empower LPs, and hyperscale global onchain liquidity through a trustless framework.

TL;DR MEV is driving retail LPs towards extinction and the advent of intents is further enriching a small group of extractive actors. Arrakis offers a fix with HOT, an MEV-aware DEX that will challenge private market makers and empower LPs.

TL;DR As Ethereum’s DeFi ecosystem has become more complex, sophisticated actors have extracted more and more value known as MEV and the problem is getting worse. These entities leverage a variety of strategies to profit from retail users. Due to the impact of MEV extraction, LPs are facing extinction. Arrakis proposes a fix with its upcoming AMM HOT.

Arrakis Finance and Valantis Labs have partnered to create HOT, a first of its kind MEV-aware AMM built on top of the Valantis Modular DEX. HOT will be the first modular AMM deployed on the Valantis Protocol, powered by Arrakis’ novel suite of modular liquidity management vaults and off-chain quoting infrastructure.

HOT is an AMM providing optimized returns for LPs and token issuers through a first of its kind intents-aligned approach to on chain liquidity. HOT was created by Arrakis and Valantis Labs.
