Overview — what THORSwap does
THORSwap is a leading multi-chain DEX aggregator and front-end for THORChain and partner rails. It enables native cross-chain swaps (no wrapped assets), liquidity aggregation across multiple protocols, and developer tools (SwapKit / Pathfinder) so projects can embed cross-chain swaps in their apps. THORSwap aims to make cross-chain DeFi practical by combining routing intelligence, streaming swaps for large trades, and composable treasury utilities. :contentReference[oaicite:0]{index=0}
Key features
- Native cross-chain swaps: swap native BTC, ETH, SOL, ZEC and other assets without wrapped tokens using THORChain rails. :contentReference[oaicite:1]{index=1}
- Streaming Swaps: split large swaps into smaller sub-swaps to reduce slippage and improve average execution. Useful for whales and treasuries. :contentReference[oaicite:2]{index=2}
- Liquidity aggregation & smart routing: THORSwap aggregates liquidity from THORChain and partner DEXs/aggregators to find competitive prices and lower price impact. :contentReference[oaicite:3]{index=3}
- SwapKit / Pathfinder APIs: developer SDKs and partner APIs let builders integrate cross-chain swap rails quickly into wallets, remittance flows, and dApps. :contentReference[oaicite:4]{index=4}
- Operational tooling: THORSafe multisig, THORYield tracking and treasury utilities help DAOs and teams manage multi-chain assets safely. :contentReference[oaicite:5]{index=5}
How to use THORSwap — quick start
Connect a supported Web3 wallet to the THORSwap app, select source and destination assets (on same or different chains), choose a swap mode (instant, price-optimized, or streaming), then confirm the transaction on your wallet. For liquidity providers, review pool depth, expected returns and impermanent loss before depositing. Developers can use SwapKit Pathfinder SDKs for programmatic integration. Always test new flows with small amounts first. :contentReference[oaicite:11]{index=11}
Why THORSwap matters
Native, non-custodial cross-chain swaps reduce reliance on wrapped assets and centralized bridges — cutting custodial risk and simplifying composability. THORSwap’s routing, aggregation and streaming features give traders, LPs and treasuries practical tools to move value across chains with less friction. For builders, SwapKit dramatically lowers the complexity of adding cross-chain functionality to apps. :contentReference[oaicite:12]{index=12}
Conclusion
THORSwap positions itself as a single hub for practical, non-custodial multi-chain finance: native swaps, liquidity aggregation, developer SDKs and operational security tools combine to serve traders, DAOs and builders. As cross-chain DeFi evolves, interfaces that blend routing intelligence with safe, on-chain settlement will be central — but always perform due diligence, check docs and audit reports, and start with small transactions. :contentReference[oaicite:13]{index=13}
