We’re excited to announce the launch of Zoroswap, or simply Zoro - a next-generation Automated Market Maker (AMM), purpose-built for the upcoming Miden blockchain.

Zoroswap is set to become the central liquidity hub on Miden, combining the best of both passive and active market-making paradigms. The project is proudly supported by a development grant from Miden, underscoring its importance to the broader Miden ecosystem.

Zoro introduces a novel dual architecture AMM that brings together two complementary models:

• Passive Uniswap-type pools designed for long-tail assets, ensuring efficient and permissionless on-chain price discovery

• Actively priced pools for major assets such as crypto blue chips and fiat-pegged stablecoins, ensuring maximal capital efficiency and profitable liquidity provisioning - an approach recently validated by different “Prop AMMs” such as HumidiFi, Tessera V (Solana), or Nabla Finance (EVM)

This hybrid structure allows Zoro to combine the permissionless token listing of passive AMMs for longtail assets with the efficiency and profitability of active market-making for bluechip assets. The result is a flexible one-stop liquidity layer, offering the best pool architecture for every asset.

Zoroswap is deeply integrated with the Miden blockchain, leveraging its unique technical advantages, which include:

• Unparalleled scalability, enabling high-throughput, low-cost transactions

• Off-chain order matching, preventing on-chain congestion while allowing complex market strategies to execute seamlessly

• Compliant private transactions, making Zoro suitable for both individual DeFi users and institutions seeking regulatory-compliant privacy
  

The team behind Zoro looks back on several years of experience with building highly profitable onchain market making strategies, innovative AMM designs, inventory risk management and zk applications. The Miden blockchain now finally provides the perfect technical foundation to combine those building blocks into this powerful new AMM primitive.

"True spot and derivative TradFi-grade trading - private, fast and scalable - has been only really available on CEXes. Not to diminish great accomplishments of protocols like Hyperliquid, HumidiFi or Railgun, but none of them had all the required features. Miden's (compliant) privacy, extreme parallelism and edge execution fix that, enabling DEXes to really compete with CEXes without sacrificing fundamental features like self-custody, decentralisation and lack of intermediaries. Oracle-priced AMMs like Zoro are uniquely poised to leverage these features to the fullest."
Mieszko Manijak, Co-Founder Zoro

"We’re very excited to support Zoro, which gives Miden both a foundational AMM and a forward-looking one in the same package. Zoro is a great example of the kind of differentiated financial products that become possible thanks to Miden's privacy, and that's what we want to see as we approach mainnet."
Azeem Khan, Co-Founder Miden

Stay tuned for updates as Miden and Zoro are approaching mainnet launch, and follow our social media accounts for more information about developments, partnerships, and early-access opportunities.

The future of liquidity on Miden starts with Zoroswap!
