Summary
Every bridge, wallet and dApp on Canton currently has to integrate each DEX separately to deliver a target token to its users, and there is no shared router or standard for how a DEX declares itself to one. We will build an open-source SDK (Apache 2.0) that routes swaps across Canton DEXs and returns a ready-to-sign execution plan, with a contributor model where any DEX joins by submitting an adapter. The result turns N×M integrations into N+M, lowers the barrier to building on Canton, and routes all volume to Canton-native venues.
