What is a DEX Aggregator?

There are many DEXs in the market (SuiSwap, Cetus), and prices can vary slightly between them.

Astros is a DEX Aggregator, meaning it searches across multiple DEXs to find the best price for your trade.

Think of Astros like a shopping assistant for crypto:

• If you want to buy $1,000 worth of BTC, Astros checks all available DEXs.

• It executes the trade where the price is lowest and fees are minimal.

• For large orders, it can even split the trade across 3 DEXs to reduce costs (Order Splitting).

Astros allows you to find the optimal swap rate without paying extra fees.

Key Details for Beginners

• Network: Sui

• Supported Tokens: SUI, NAVX, other Sui ecosystem tokens

• Platform Type: Decentralized Exchange (DEX) / Aggregator

• User Access: Web3 wallet or Google login
