Routing & Execution Quality

Objective: minimize a trader’s total cost = price impact + fees while maintaining quote freshness and predictable settlement on Sui.

8.1 Pathfinding & Freshness

The router evaluates candidate paths across available pools and selects the one with the best executable outcome after fees and impact. Quotes are time-sensitive by design; during fast markets the system prefers to re-quote rather than execute stale prices. If no viable route exists, guidance favors routing via a liquid base asset or adjusting size.

8.2 Execution on Sui (Why It Matters)

Sui’s rapid, predictable finality and low, stable gas reduce drift between quote and settlement and make small test trades or frequent position adjustments economical. The network’s parallel execution helps keep the UI responsive during bursts of activity, which is critical for AMM updates and rapid re-quotes.

8.3 Protections & Guardrails

• Slippage & deadline controls (sensible defaults, user-tunable) to avoid stale executions.

• Quote TTLs and explicit acceptance on meaningful price movement.

• Safe imports & verified lists to prevent mis-routing to spoofed assets.

• Scoped circuit breakers that can disable specific pools/routes in abnormal conditions without halting the entire system.

8.4 Failure Modes & Recovery

Most failures stem from expired quotes or over-tight slippage. The system re-quotes, suggests size adjustments, or alternate paths; gas sufficiency checks and clear error surfaces reduce user confusion. These behaviors are documented openly to set accurate expectations during volatile windows.

8.5 Development Status & Funding Note

Routing heuristics, fee models, and guardrails are being tuned alongside audits and load testing. Presale funds are allocated to finalize these components, expand simulation coverage, and harden observability around path quality and execution reliability ahead of mainnet.
