Pact Swap surpasses $3M volume with swaps 95% cheaper

In a crypto world in perpetual upheaval, every crisis is also an opportunity. CZ, an iconic figure of Binance, already emphasized this during the crypto winter of 2022: turbulent periods are conducive to building. It is in this context of innovation, between uncertainties and ambitions, that Pact Swap establishes itself. With its recently reached 3 million dollars in volume, the platform lays another stone in the edifice of a smoother, safer, and above all more accessible DeFi…

A new era for DEXs: no more bridges, hello native swaps

The real DeFi turning point? Pact Swap relies neither on bridges nor on synthetic assets. Result: swaps up to 95% cheaper according to internal benchmarks. No more risks of bridge hacks or token de-anchoring. Thanks to Coinweb and its PACT system, each swap is overcollateralized at 200%, with smart contracts overseeing every step.

Bridges and wrapped assets have been both the tax and the risk layer of DeFi. With Pact Swap, we execute transactions natively on the source and destination chains, removing intermediaries and passing savings onto users. Cutting costs up to 95% with bridge-less swaps is no small feat.

The protocol is based on a “consensusless” architecture: no custom nodes, no validators to pay. This structural lightness makes all the difference, especially in a crypto market seeking transparency and speed. Add to that an open listing model, and you get a DEX as flexible as Uniswap, but with enhanced security.

Pact Swap wants to democratize cross-chain for all crypto traders

What sets Pact Swap apart from other platforms is its accessibility. Far from complex interfaces or liquidity constraints, the platform prioritizes user experience. In a tweet on July 13, the team declared: 

We didn’t create @PACT_SWAP to follow trends. We did it because cross-chain trading seemed broken: slow, expensive, and full of trust assumptions most people never agreed to.

The integration of Dogecoin, Polygon, or TRON fits this approach. It enables native swaps, without bridges or synthetic assets, on blockchains often excluded from the DEX world. The goal is simple: to offer a smooth experience, even for crypto beginners, with fees close to those of CEXs.

On the investor side, the strategy is appealing. DNA Fund invested 5 million dollars, including $500,000 via Helix Fund. Integrations with aggregators allow capturing traffic where it already is: in wallets and platforms used by the crypto community.

DEXs still have arguments to assert against CEXs

Despite the comeback of centralized exchanges (CEXs), DEXs regain their relevance by reinventing themselves. Pact Swap does not copy: it innovates. It addresses CEX vulnerabilities in security, interoperability, and fees.

The Pact Swap strategy focuses on B2B integration: DEX aggregators, multi-chain wallets, DeFi partners. Everything is designed so the end user accesses a bridgeless swap without changing habits. This hybrid model could well launch massive DEX adoption.

Even on standard (single-chain) transactions, Pact Swap shows results. Up to 45% savings compared to Uniswap or PancakeSwap, thanks to a model based on an order book, not an AMM. A performance worth attention.

Key figures to remember: Pact Swap changes the game

• 95% savings on swap fees, according to internal benchmarks;
• 200% overcollateralization to secure each transaction;
• 10 supported blockchains, with native swaps and no bridges;
• 6 co-founders including Brock Pierce and Toby Gilbert (Coinweb);
• $5 million raised to accelerate development.

We recently witnessed the rapid rise of PumpSwap, one of the star DEXs of the Solana ecosystem. Pact Swap could well follow a similar trajectory, given the technical foundations and support seem solid. Whether this momentum will endure over time and market complexity only the future will tell.
