Step into the future of trading with Avantis and Pyth

With Pyth, we saw over $5.5B traded during testnet, and in just one week of mainnet beta launch, are on the way to $10M in trading volume on a TVL base of $1.5M.

Avantis is built entirely onchain, meaning that delivering competitive pricing and low-latency execution is extremely important especially when compared to centralized exchanges. Pyth plays a crucial role in facilitating this objective. With Pyth price oracles, Avantis consistently achieves the most optimal accuracy in executing mainnet limit orders, with deviations typically as minimal as 0.01% from the requested price.
