Our verdict on Beam Swap

5.8/10

Beam Swap suits users already active on the Beam gaming network who need a place to swap tokens there. Its main strength is its role as the primary DEX on that chain. The main caveat is the lack of published detail: no audits are listed, fees are not stated, and liquidity is modest at about $1.5 million. Check the documentation and start small.

the public information available are limited. This review covers what is established and flags what is not, including fee structure, pool design and security details.

How Beam Swap works

Beam Swap is a decentralized exchange, or DEX. Instead of matching buyers and sellers through a company, it lets users trade tokens directly from their own wallets using smart contracts on the Beam network.

Most DEXs rely on liquidity pools, where users deposit pairs of tokens and earn a share of trading fees. When you swap, the contract adjusts prices based on the pool balances. The project does not say which pool design Beam Swap uses, so check the project's documentation for details.

Pros and cons

What we like

  • Described as the primary DEX on the Beam gaming blockchain.
  • Simple, focused purpose: swapping tokens on Beam.
  • Tracked on DefiLlama since October 2023, with public TVL data.
  • TVL rose about 14 percent over the last seven days.
  • No native token is required to use it, per DefiLlama.

Watch out for

  • No audits are listed on DefiLlama, so smart-contract safety cannot be confirmed.
  • Fee levels, pool types and swap routing are not published publicly reviewed.
  • Liquidity is modest (about $1.5 million TVL), so larger trades may face price impact.
  • Depends on the Beam network, which has a narrower user base than the major chains.
  • No native token is listed, and incentive programs are not described publicly.

Beam Swap fees

Fees are not published publicly reviewed. Its homepage does not list swap fees, liquidity provider fees or any protocol cut.

Users should check the quote on the swap screen before confirming. Network gas fees on Beam apply in addition to any trading fee.

Is Beam Swap safe?

DefiLlama lists no audits for Beam Swap. Public sources reviewed include no information on contract admin controls, past incidents or bug bounties. Treat smart-contract risk as unverified.

As a DEX, funds stay in your own wallet until you trade, but liquidity providers take on contract and impermanent-loss risk. Check official channels, and avoid lookalike sites by confirming the address from the project's verified account.
