Fluid DEX v2 isn't just an upgrade—it's a revolutionary leap in decentralized exchange (DEX) technology. By combining the best innovations in DeFi, Fluid has created the most advanced, capital-efficient AMM in the crypto space. This upgrade unlocks unprecedented flexibility for liquidity providers (LPs) and introduces groundbreaking features like Smart Collateral Range Orders and Smart Debt Range Orders.
From v1 to v2: Evolution of Fluid DEX
Launched on October 29, 2024, Fluid DEX v1 quickly became the second-largest DEX on Ethereum thanks to its innovative primitives: Smart Collateral and Smart Debt. DEX v2 builds on this foundation with a rearchitected singleton contract and the Fluid Liquidity Layer, enabling:
- Cross-collateralization
- Infinite DEX types (governance-deployed)
- Gas efficiency and enhanced composability
Architecture & Core Features
Supported DEX Types on Launch
- Type 1: Smart Collateral (v1 ported)
- Type 2: Smart Debt (v1 ported)
- Type 3: Smart Collateral Range Orders (earn lending APR)
- Type 4: Smart Debt Range Orders (borrow assets for strategies)

Key Innovations
- Hooks (custom logic à la Uniswap v4)
- Flash Accounting (gas-efficient arbitrage)
- On-chain limit orders (with lending yield)
- Dynamic fees (configurable via hooks)
Permissionless & Modular Design
DEX v2 prioritizes openness:
- Fully permissionless Smart Lending Pools
- Conditionally permissionless Smart Collateral/Debt (governance-controlled)
- Future plans for fully permissionless collateral/debt positions
Advanced LP Strategies
LPs can combine primitives for leveraged yield strategies:
- Multi-range orders (collateral + debt)
- Stablecoin loops (convert $1→$39)
- Hybrid positions (range + normal collateral)
