Multi-Swap

The Multi-Swap instrument allows makers to post their intend for a token exchange. Taker can engage the issuance and complete the exchange.

The Multi-Swap instrument is similar to Swap but it allows multiple engagements to the same issuance. Maker defines the expected input token amount and output amount. When a taker engages with output token less than the expected output amount, the proportional amount of input token is swapped.

Multi-Swap lifecycle

The image below shows the lifecycle of Multi-Swap issuance and engagement.

• When a multi-swap issuance is created and the input token is deposited, the multi-swap issuance becomes Engageable;

• When a taker engages the multi-swap issuance and deposits the output token

  • If there is enough input token remaining, the multi-swap engagement is created and Complete with input token transferred to taker and output token transferred to maker

  • If there is not enough input token remaining, the engagement transaction will fail

  • If there is no input token left after this engagement, the multi-swap issuance is Complete

• When maker cancels an Engageable multi-swap issuance and there is no engagement, the multi-swap issuance becomes Cancelled and the deposited input token is returned;

• When the multi-swap issuance is due, the multi-swap is Complete and remaining input tokens are returned.
