SushiSwap (CRYPTO: SUSHI) is up 11.7% today after Tuesday’s announcement of an upgrade to the protocol known as “Trident”.
The SushiSwap protocol began as a fork of Uniswap (CRYPTO: UNI), the largest automated market maker (AMM) on the Ethereum (CRYPTO: ETH) blockchain.
Now the SushiSwap developer team has announced Trident, “a new AMM protocol built in-house by the Sushi team, with features never-before-imagined in DeFi”
SushiSwap was successful at stealing liquidity away from Uniswap by offering additional SUSHI incentives. Since then, Uniswap’s V3 upgrade has been released.
Uniswap V3 allows users to provide liquidity within a concentrated range of the price curve, exposing themselves to additional impermanent loss and therefore higher yield. SushiSwap plans to implement its own concentrated liquidity feature, releasing with the Trident update.
