DefiLlama: Ink aggregators

What an aggregator does

  • It asks many DEXs for a price and can split one trade across several to get you more tokens out.
  • Compare the quote with the DEX’s own. The aggregator may add a fee, and the quote shows it.
  • You still sign the transaction yourself, and you still approve tokens. The aggregator’s contract gets that approval, so only approve ones you trust.
  • Cross-chain routes can include a bridge, which adds time and risk.

Reading a quote

  1. Look at the amount you send and the amount you get.
  2. Find the minimum received. If the price moves past it, the swap fails instead of filling badly.
  3. Look at the fee and the price impact lines. Big price impact means thin liquidity.
  4. Check the route it picked. If it is odd, try another aggregator or the DEX itself.
