Soroswap Finance Review 2026: A Stellar DEX on Soroban

Soroswap Finance is a decentralized exchange, or DEX, on the Stellar blockchain. It lets users swap Stellar assets and provide liquidity to pools using Soroban smart contracts. The project describes itself as an open-source AMM protocol with an SDK and a frontend for users.

The project's materials also describe a Soroswap Aggregator and a Spacewalk Bridge implementation. The aggregator is presented as a way to get quotes and route trades, including through Stellar's native SDEX order book. The bridge is referenced in the project's code and documentation.

Public information is mainly the project's own website, GitHub repositories, developer documentation and a public analytics dashboard. Independent write-ups repeat the core description of a Stellar DEX, but they add little detail on fees, governance or team.

Soroswap is an automated market maker, or AMM. Instead of matching a buyer with a seller, it holds pools of two assets. A trader sends one asset to a pool and receives the other at a price set by the ratio of assets in that pool. The price moves as trades shift that ratio.

Liquidity providers deposit pairs of assets into these pools and earn a share of trading activity. The project's materials describe the AMM, an aggregator and a bridge implementation as separate parts of the system, with the aggregator looking for routes across available liquidity.

The contracts run on Soroban, Stellar's smart contract platform. Because the code is open source, developers can inspect the logic and build their own interfaces on top of it.

The project does not publish a fee schedule in the material we found. Users pay Stellar network transaction costs on each action, which are generally small, but any swap or pool fee built into Soroswap should be read in the interface before a trade is confirmed.

Because fees are not stated in one place, compare the expected output and any route details shown at quote time against the amount you receive.

The material we found does not name a completed smart contract audit, and it does not describe the custody model in detail. Because a DEX is non-custodial, users generally keep control of their assets in their own wallets, but the smart contracts they interact with carry code risk.

Liquidity providers face additional risks, including loss from price moves between the two assets in a pool. Bridge transfers add counterparty and cross-chain risk. Check audit status and the contract addresses shown on the official site before depositing.

The project does not publish a regulatory status in the material we found. Crypto trading is regulated differently across countries, so check the rules where you live.

Soroswap Finance suits people who already hold Stellar assets and want to swap them or provide liquidity without a centralized exchange. It also fits developers looking at open-source Stellar DEX code and an SDK. It is less suited to readers who need clear published fees, audit reports or a regulated product.
