We investigate the market microstructure of Automated Market Makers (AMMs), the most prominent type of blockchain-based decentralized exchanges. We show that the order execution mechanism yields token value loss for liquidity providers if token exchange rates are volatile. AMMs are adopted only if their token pairs are of high personal use for investors, or the token price movements of the pair are highly correlated. A pricing curve with higher curvature reduces the arbitrage problem but also investors' surplus. Pooling multiple tokens exacerbates the arbitrage problem. We provide statistical support for our main model implications using transaction-level data of AMMs.

  1. Optimal Dynamic Fees for Automated Market Makers: A Stochastic Control Approach to Loss-Versus-Rebalancing

    q-fin.MF 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 7.0

    Derives a pro-cyclical optimal dynamic fee for AMM LPs via ergodic control that is independent of wealth and risk aversion and improves growth rate over static fees.

  2. Multi-Currency AMMs for Decentralized FOREX Markets: Feasibility & Optimal Design

    q-fin.TR 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.0

    Optimized multi-currency constant-mean AMM pools with correlation-based currency clustering cut modeled FX trading costs by ~13% versus USD vehicle-currency routing.

  3. Reinforcement Learning for Execution under Dynamic Fees in a Closed-Loop DEX Simulator

    cs.LG 2026-07 accept novelty 6.0

    In a reserved 1,000-seed closed-loop DEX simulation with forced completion, a small DQN cuts implementation shortfall 13.3 bps versus tuned one-step routing under dynamic fees, with no detectable edge under constant fees.

  4. Proof of Stake economy under centralized exchanges--a mean field model

    q-fin.MF 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    Mean-field game model of PoS miners acting as both validators and CEX traders; proves local well-posedness, gives semi-explicit equilibrium strategies, and numerically links centralized trading to higher staking ratio...

  5. The Viability of Blockchain Markets under Discrete Clearing and Paid Priority

    q-fin.GN 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    Blockchain markets with discrete clearing and paid priority fees experience endogenous trader selection that biases prices, impairs liquidity, and risks market shutdown as competition rises.
