<figure><img src="/files/OaPlvdVRG9jFP6COZq2a" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

[Polkaswap](https://polkaswap.io/) is a next-generation, cross-chain liquidity aggregator DEX protocol for swapping tokens based on the Polkadot (and Kusama) network(s), Parachains, and blockchains connected via bridges. Through the development of bridge technologies, Polkaswap enables Ethereum-based tokens to be traded. This is done seamlessly, at high speed and low fees, while exchanging assets in a non-custodial manner on the SORA network.
