Ambient Finance
Ambient Finance (formerly CrocSwap) is a zero-to-low fee AMM DEX built as a single, unified smart contract that supports both traditional constant-product and concentrated liquidity trading. Its unique architecture combines all liquidity pools into one mega-pool contract, dramatically reducing gas costs and enabling more efficient cross-pool arbitrage. Ambient's design is optimized for HyperEVM's high-throughput environment, where gas efficiency and low-latency execution are paramount. Supporting both ambient (passive, full-range) and range (concentrated, active) liquidity positions, Ambient gives LPs flexibility without the complexity of managing Uniswap v3 positions. Its integrated knockout liquidity—essentially on-chain limit orders—bridges the gap between AMM and order-book trading, making Ambient a compelling DEX infrastructure for the Hyperliquid ecosystem. The single-contract design minimizes composability risk while maximizing capital efficiency across all trading pairs.

Gamma Strategies is an active liquidity management protocol for concentrated liquidity AMMs, automating the complex position management required by Uniswap v3-style pools. By continuously rebalancing LP positions within optimal price ranges, Gamma maximizes fee revenue while minimizing impermanent loss compared to passive LPing. On HyperEVM, where new AMMs with concentrated liquidity mechanics are launching, Gamma provides vault-based LP management that removes the technical burden from retail liquidity providers. Users simply deposit token pairs into Gamma vaults and receive automatically managed LP positions. With support for both symmetric and asymmetric liquidity strategies, Gamma is the go-to solution for sophisticated LP management on HyperEVM DEXes. Its passive income model makes DeFi liquidity provision accessible to users who want exposure to trading fee yields without the constant active management that concentrated liquidity pools require.
