XRP Ledger Proposes Upgrade to Improve Trading Efficiency

The XRP Ledger Foundation has proposed an upgrade to the XLS-30 Automated Market Maker (AMM) system, which would introduce new pricing models for liquidity pools.

The current AMM uses a single curve model called the 'constant product' system, but this can be less effective for stablecoins or tokenized real-world assets. The proposed update would allow XRPL users and liquidity providers to choose from different pricing models when creating liquidity pools.

This upgrade aims to improve capital efficiency and reduce price slippage, particularly for stablecoins and tokenized real-world assets. According to the Ledger Foundation, this would also offer more accurate pricing across several markets, including foreign exchange, stablecoins, RWAs, and DeFi trading.
