Our verdict on Forteswap

Forteswap is an automated market maker exchange on Canto, a model that lets users swap tokens and supply liquidity without an order book. Its main strength, on paper, is the simple pool design. The main caveat is that current listings show zero volume and zero trading pairs, and no audit is listed. Confirm the app is live and check the contracts before using it.

What is Forteswap?

Forteswap is a decentralized exchange, described by one listing site as an automated market maker on the Canto network. It has been listed since August 2022. Its social account posted in October 2022 about an Encanto event where users could stake Forteswap LP tokens.

Current market listings show $0 in 24-hour spot volume and zero trading pairs. One site describes the exchange as established in 2021. These figures suggest little or no current trading, but the material available does not say whether the project has shut down or is paused.

The homepage could not be reviewed for this page, so the features, fees, team and security practices are not confirmed. Readers should verify whether the app is live before using it.

How Forteswap works

An automated market maker exchange holds pools of two tokens in a smart contract. The price of each token is set by the ratio of the two balances in the pool, so a trade changes that ratio and the price moves with it. Users do not need a counterparty; they trade against the pool.

People who supply tokens to a pool earn a share of the trading fees. In return they receive LP tokens that represent their share. One post from the project's account refers to staking LP tokens for rewards, which is a separate step from simply providing liquidity.

Because the price depends on the pool ratio, large trades can move the price and cost more than the quoted rate. Liquidity providers can end up with a different mix of tokens than they deposited, which is known as impermanent loss.

Key features

Automated market maker pools

Swaps tokens directly against liquidity pools rather than a buyer and seller order book.

Liquidity provision and LP staking

Pros and cons

What we like

Described as a non-custodial exchange that trades from smart contracts, with no account needed to swap.
Operates on Canto, a network with lower-cost transactions than Ethereum mainnet.
Liquidity providers receive LP tokens that represent their pool share.

Watch out for

Market listings report $0 in 24-hour spot volume and zero trading pairs, so it is unclear whether the exchange is still active.
No audits are listed for the protocol.
No fee schedule, team details or governance information is published in the material available.
Liquidity providers in AMM pools face impermanent loss when token prices move apart.
Canto is a smaller network than the largest EVM chains, which limits liquidity and third-party tooling.

Forteswap fees

Forteswap does not publish a fee schedule in the material available. AMM exchanges usually set swap and pool fees in the smart contract, and the exact amount is normally shown in the trade interface before a swap is confirmed. Check the live app for current figures.

Is Forteswap safe?

No audits are listed for Forteswap, and the material available does not describe custody arrangements, a team or any incident history. Because it is a decentralized exchange, users keep custody of their tokens, but they rely on the smart contracts and the front end. A bug in the contracts or a compromised website could cause losses.

The listings show no trading activity, so there is no current track record to assess. The project does not publish a regulatory status in the material available. Check that the use of decentralized trading is permitted where you live.

7 steps

How to get started with Forteswap

7
If you provide liquidity, read about impermanent loss before depositing.

Forteswap FAQs

What is Forteswap?

Forteswap is listed as an automated market maker decentralized exchange on the Canto chain. It runs on smart contracts rather than a central order book. Market listings show no recent trading volume and no active trading pairs, so the current status needs to be confirmed directly.

Which blockchains does Forteswap run on?

Forteswap is listed on the Canto chain. One listing site describes it as deployed across several EVM-compatible networks, but the chain listing used for this review shows Canto only. Check the official website for the current list of supported networks.

What are Forteswap fees?

The material available does not show a fee schedule for Forteswap. AMM exchanges typically charge a small swap fee that goes to liquidity providers, and the rate is usually shown in the trade screen before a swap is confirmed.

Is Forteswap safe to use?

No audit is listed for Forteswap in the material available. Any user who connects a wallet takes on smart contract risk, and a token approval can give a contract permission to move funds. Verify the contract addresses on the official site before approving any transaction.
