Brave Roadmap 2.0 will feature a DEX aggregator. Work on the DEX aggregator is ongoing, hence why I believe this suggestion comes in good timing. As per the 2.0:Update 1 Roadmap on the 7th of April 2021:
Benchmarked various DEX aggregator APIs against one another.
Implemented a draft of the SWAP UI and API integration.
Bancor Network has the deepest BAT DEX liquidity by far:
If the DEX aggregator doesn’t list Bancor, it’s a big loss for all the BAT swaps that go through it, as higher liquidity on the BAT BNT pool generally means a smaller price impact. Currently, the pool has a liquidity of $21,089,053, and 0.5% fees.
Also adding my support here. Bancor has 14.2M BAT tokens in its pool at the moment which puts it above other DEXes (e.g. Uniswap) and even certain CEXes (Bitfinex)
This is a great idea! I think Bancor and BAT could have great synergy and adding the dex with deepest liquidity for the aggregator would be an important step, especially if brave wants BAT to be the main token for dex agg
The BAT pool on Bancor is deeper than any other DEx. The Bancor DAO is the absolute most engaged DAO in defi and there is a lot of overlap between the two communities.
This 1,000,000% has my vote. It’s crucial to utilize the AMM with the deepest BAT liquidity as part of this plan to incorporate a DEX aggregator. It would literally make counterproductive sense not to.
Hello !
I’m from the Bancor Community but have been using Brave for a good 3-4 years now. Always had trouble with the wallet option through uphold, rather annoying. Hopefully the new wallet can get me to make the full switch from MM. Either way, Bancor being integrated would play a big role for me. As with other discussions regarding adding Bancor, it is typical to see wallets aggregating aggregators, this should not be the case it just adds another fee to the end user.
This is an easy win-win-win for Bancor, Brave, and Brave users. Bancor’s growth since launching 2.1 is tremendous and they show no signs of slowing down. Bancor also has some of the deepest pools for some of the most popular tokens in crypto.
Just wanted to chime in again to mention that it would truly be a disservice to any Brave user that is using the built in DEX aggregator if you did not include the Bancor DEX as it has the largest liquidity pools for the following tokens:
