GalaSwap: April Updates

April 11, 2024

We’ve been thrilled to see how much the GalaChain community has enjoyed the ability to easily swap tokens on chain using GalaSwap.

As we said when we first released GalaSwap, we originally prioritized getting it in users’ hands as quickly as possible. This means that we’ve got lots of updates we plan to implement, and the next round is here!

Partial Swaps

Starting with this update, you’ll no longer need to fulfill an entire swap to accept it. Likewise, this makes it so it isn’t ‘all or nothing’ for those listing swaps. 

When searching for a swap, you’ll now see a checkbox labeled “Selected Amount”. Using this checkbox, you may accept a percentage of the swap being offered.

You’ll be able to customize the amount of the given swap that you fill, and the rest will remain as an available swap.

You can use this in addition to other full swaps as well to get exactly what you need, without having to try and get an optimal combination of swaps for the exact amount of tokens. you’re looking for.

New API Functionality

We’ve added new API integrations into GalaSwap to allow developers to easily access the GalaSwap API. 

This will open the door to new developments, as builders on GalaChain can now integrate API for GalaSwap functionality authenticated directly through a user’s keys.

GalaSwap itself doesn’t have a monopoly on token exchanges within the GalaChain ecosystem. We built this tool because it was functionality that we thought everyone needed for the good of GalaChain. The end goal is always to make it more useful to those building on and using GalaChain!

Much More Ahead

GalaSwap is still in the early days. There will be a lot more coming – more tokens, more ways to swap and more use for GalaChain devs! 

For now, we hope that these few updates make your swaps a little easier. We’ll be back soon with new features!
