Governance

The DEX has a multisig administrator account that is able to perform the governance tasks.

The multisig account can be switched to a different account by the multisig account itself.

Locking and Unlocking the DEX

In emergency situations, the multisig has the capability to lock the DEX.

If the DEX is locked, no swaps can be created, traded or dropped. However, all governance functions and withdrawal functions are still intact.

The DEX can be unlocked by the multisig account, which resumes normal operation.

Fees withdrawal

The multisig account has the capability to withdraw the fees from the DEX that have been accumulated through trading.

Recover funds

The multisig account has the capability to withdraw Ether that have been deposited into the DEX by accident.

For example, an NFT may have been minted through an ERC721 with the DEX as beneficiary. Or an amount of ERC20 tokens may have been transferred to the DEX directly.

Note

The multisig account is not able to withdraw Ether that were deposited into the DEX by a user account through the regular swap creation method, make. The contract has an internal counter to protect user owned Ether.

Fee structure updates

The multisig account has the capability to update the fee structure by modifying the felo and fehi thresholds, see Fee discount.

Note

The multisig account is excluded from trading and is prohibited from creating or taking swaps.
