From stablecoins to popular tokens, why are AMMs becoming increasingly dominant across various markets?

Abstract generation in progress

【Crypto World】A well-known DEX founder recently shared his views on the automated market maker mechanism, and his insights are quite interesting.

In stable trading pairs, AMMs can actually outperform professional market makers. Why? Because they can provide investors with low-cost, continuous, and stable returns, which is very difficult for traditional market-making models to achieve.

The real test is in the long-tail markets—those small tokens with extremely high volatility. Honestly, in this field, AMMs are almost the only reliable choice. Other market structures simply cannot scale to such a large volume, and the scalability of AMMs outperforms other solutions by a mile.

What about popular tokens? Competition is definitely fierce, but that doesn’t mean AMMs have no chance. With the upgrade and iteration of v4 hook technology, the profitability of liquidity pools will be greatly enhanced. This technological direction allows AMMs to find more ways to make money even in highly competitive environments.

Overall, different market environments have different needs, and the flexibility and customizability of AMMs are becoming increasingly strong, which could be the key to the continuous evolution of DEXs.

In the stablecoin sector, AMM has now basically surpassed traditional market making, earning full pots with low-risk arbitrage. Long-tail tokens are even more impressive; without AMM, no one would really play. Basically, it's a monopoly position. V4 really has some substance, but the popular token pools are still too competitive. It depends on whether subsequent iterations can truly improve yields. This guy's analysis is quite rational, not full of hype. It really depends on the specific use case; it's not a black-and-white situation. AMM still needs to continue upgrading in the future, or else it will ultimately be eaten up by institutional arbitrage.

This guy is speaking the truth, in the long-tail coin sector, AMM is indeed the only way out. The V4 hook technology upgrade is quite powerful; LPs should wake up. Actually, stablecoins offer decent returns, but competition among popular coins is fierce. Speaking of which, the biggest concern is impermanent loss. How can it be avoided? Wait, doesn't that mean AMM is all-powerful? Feels a bit like overhyped packaging. Is the market maker model about to fail? I don't really believe that. Liquidity for small coins definitely needs AMM to survive; there's no other choice. Brothers with low human capital costs are having the most fun earning from stablecoins; that logic makes sense. Can V4 really beat the competitors? Seems a bit exaggerated. In the long-tail market, what he's saying is correct, but what about the risks? This guy didn't mention them.

Stablecoin LPs are really comfortable, but the returns are a bit subtle... The real battleground is in the long-tail coins. If the v4 hooks really get implemented, the popular coin pools might change dramatically. It's not too late to jump in now. Small tokens really can't be played without AMM; it's a savior for retail LPs. It still depends on the specific implementation. Hook technology sounds great, but in practice, will it just lead to chaos? In the long run, the advantages of AMM are indeed obvious, but I'm worried that some official pools might come back to create monopolies.

Stablecoins are indeed favored by AMM, but long-tail tokens are the real gold mine. With such high volatility, who dares to take over? Can the v4 hook turn the tide in the competition for popular tokens? I'm a bit hopeful but also a bit uncertain. It really depends on choosing the right track; not all tokens benefit from the AMM approach.
