Buy / Sell ALP

Users can buy ALP tokens on all deployed networks with assets allowed by the portfolio.Buy / Sell ALP TutorialAfter placing a buy or sell ALP order, it takes an extended pending time (currently set as 18 minutes) for the order to be filled.The pending time serves two purposes:

• Prevent potential arbitraging that can harm LP

  • Since the ALP pool holds a portfolio of assets and allows users to buy ALP with any supported assets, there is potential arbitrage room if front-runners execute quick buy and sell orders with different assets. The pending time can help to eliminate this room for arbitrage.

• Ensure the protocol can correctly calculate the universal liquidity across four networks

  • The Allspark protocol needs to consider different network latency and finalization times when calculating the universal liquidity; the pending time helps ensure correct calculation and proper token allocation for ALP buyers and sellers.
