※小提醒：本場 AMA 會以中英雙語進行，參與提問的朋友們可以先準備英文問題，比較有機會搶先被回覆呦！
第一階段 - 答疑：
Q1. Would you mind introducing yourself, telling us about your background and the team working on SWIM?
Hey guys — my name is Troy and I started my career at SIG as an algo trader. After working there, I transitioned into the crypto space and was an early member of Alameda/FTX as a trader. I graduated from UC Berkeley with a major in Engineering, Math, and Statistics with a minor in Computer Science.
The team comes from a variety of backgrounds such as FTX, Alameda, Coinbase Ventures, Cosmos, and Google. I’ve worked with many of the team members in college or prior jobs. Our CTO was a software engineer at Alameda/FTX and most members of the software development team have experiences within the cryptocurrency space.
問題 1. 請問你可以做一下自我介紹和介紹一下你們的團隊嗎?
大家好 — — 我叫 Troy，我在 SIG 開始了我的職業生涯，是一名算法交易員。 在那裡工作後，我進入了加密領域，並且是 Alameda/FTX 的早期成員，是一名交易員。 我畢業於加州大學伯克利分校，主修工程、數學和統計學，輔修計算機科學。
該團隊來自不同背景，例如 FTX、Alameda、Coinbase Ventures、Cosmos 和 Google。 我在大學或以前的工作中與許多團隊成員一起工作過。 我們的 CTO 是 Alameda/FTX 的軟件工程師，軟件開發團隊的大多數成員都有加密貨幣領域的經驗。
Q2. Can you tell us about your SWIM project? Give us a brief summary
Swim is a multi-chain AMM for native assets, designed to make bridging as easy as possible. Our protocol eliminates the need for wrapped assets by allowing users to swap from a native asset on one chain to a native asset on any other supported chain. Swim’s solution reduces the barriers faced by users when performing cross-chain transactions, enabling true interoperability between various blockchain networks and composability with other protocols.
We launched our Alpha product in early March and initial traction has been great. Currently, we are working hard on a handful of improvements to our product, there are many things to be excited about in the near future. While initially Swim will support bridging to and from Solana, Ethereum, and BNB Chain, we have plans on expanding to Avalanche + Terra + Polygon soon.
問題 2. 想請問能幫我們介紹一下 SWIM 項目嗎？和給我們一個簡短的總結
Swim 是用於原生資產的多鏈 AMM，旨在使橋的使用上盡可能簡單。 我們的協議允許用戶從一條鏈上的原生資產交換到任何其他受支持鏈上的原生資產，從而消除了對打包資產的需求。 Swim 的解決方案減少了用戶在執行跨鏈交易時面臨的障礙，實現了各種區塊鏈網絡之間的真正互操作性以及與其他協議的可組合性。
我們在 3 月初推出了 Alpha 產品，最初的吸引力非常大。 目前，我們正在努力對我們的產品進行一些改進，在不久的將來會有很多令人興奮的事情。 雖然最初 Swim 將支持往返於 Solana、以太坊和 BNB 鏈的橋接，但我們計劃很快擴展到 Avalanche + Terra + Polygon。
Q3. Why did you and your team decide to build a cross-chain, multi-chain liquidity pool? What is it that you’ve done differently compared to various multi-chain liquidity providers out there?
We built a cross chain multi-chain liquidity pool because the volume that moves across chains currently is dwarfed by the volumes that move intra-chain indicating there is a huge amount of growth that is being stunted by a bridging solution that can facilitate high throughput.
What we’ve done differently and our priorities are:
1. high throughput design (optimizing for long term adoption our design consolidates volume rather than splitting it via multiple channels / wrapped avenues)
2. decentralization (going with Wormhole as the underlying cross-chain communication layer governed by a set of Solana Guardians as compared to alternatives in the space)
3. usability (workflow streamlining that catches the variety of cross-chain hiccups that occur when trying to move assets across chains under current solutions — network congestion, stuck transfers, etc.)
問題 3. 為什麼你和你的團隊決定建立一個跨鏈、多鏈的流動資金池？ 與現有的各種多鏈流動性提供者相比，你做了什麼不同的事情？
我們建立了一個跨鏈多鏈流動性池，因為目前跨鏈移動的數量與在鏈內移動的數量相比相形見絀，這表明存在大量增長空間，將被可以促進高吞吐量的橋方案解決。
我們做了不同的事情以及優先事項是：
1. 高通量設計（針對長期採用進行優化，我們的設計整合了體積，而不是通過多個渠道/包裹的途徑將其拆分）
2. 去中心化（與空間中的替代方案相比，Wormhole 作為由一組 Solana Guardians 管理的底層跨鏈通信層）
3. 可用性（在當前解決方案下嘗試跨鏈移動資產時發生的各種跨鏈故障 — — 網絡擁塞、傳輸卡住等，工作流程流線化。）
Q4. Let’s dive into your tokenomics. Can you share with us your tokenomics? And what are some of the $SWIM use cases?
Swim’s tokenomics model is broken down into these few major components: mining reserve (30%), ecosystem/partnership (35%), team tokens (20%), Seed (5%), liquidity provision (10%). Team & seed tokens are locked for 1 year and released linearly for 3 years afterwards.
We’ve largely taken inspiration from Curve’s governance model. Almost all aspects of the protocol will be governed. Features to prioritize: bounties for features, fee parameters, slippage curve, various details around the buy and burn model etc. In addition there will be xSwim pool where holders of swim can benefit from the various fee avenues of Swim Protocol. Much further down the line $SWIM will play a role into our decentralized relayer model — a feature that aims to enable smooth cross-chain smart contract calls
問題 4. 讓我們深入了解您的代幣經濟學。 你能和我們分享你的代幣經濟學嗎？ $SWIM 用例有哪些？
Swim 的代幣經濟學模型分為以下幾個主要部分：挖礦儲備（30%）、生態系統/合作夥伴關係（35%）、團隊（20%）、種子輪（5%）、流動性供應（10%）。 團隊和種子代幣鎖定 1 年，之後線性釋放 3 年。
我們很大程度上從 Curve 的治理模型中獲得了靈感。 協議的幾乎所有方面都將受到管理。 優先考慮的功能：功能的賞金、費用參數、滑點曲線、圍繞購買和銷毀模型的各種細節等。此外，將有 xSwim 池，游泳持有者可以從 Swim 協議的各種費用途徑中受益。 更進一步，$SWIM 將在我們的去中心化中繼模型中發揮作用 — — 該功能旨在實現順暢的跨鏈智能合約調用
Q5. No one can achieve anything valuable on its own, please tell us about your current and future partnerships that will lead you to success in this highly cramped crypto space?
That’s a very good question and something we believe in very strongly, our protocol is designed for integrations, from all ecosystems Swim connects to. Initially, our LP token was designed so that users can receive a fungible LP token in any of the chains we connect to, in the example of our first pool, the hexapool, users have the option to receive the LP token back on Solana/BNB Chain and Ethereum. The benefits of this design is that users can participate in the ecosystem in those chains with our LP tokens and are not restricted to Solana.
We are constantly working with yield aggregators, borrow lending, wallets, price aggregators and other AMMs for collaboration. Furthermore, a portion of our tokens are reserved for ecosystem/partnership incentives (35%). Those tokens are distributed for protocols and teams who want to partner with us.
Our long term traction strategy involves many partnerships with existing Blue-Chip-DeFi protocols to enable them in their current efforts to become multi-chain compatible. We have a few major protocols that have agreed to partner with us, and those announcements are coming up!
問題 5. 沒有人可以單靠自己的力量實現偉大的事情，請告訴我們您當前和未來的合作夥伴關係，它們將引導您在這個高度狹窄的加密空間中取得成功？
這是一個非常好的問題，我們非常堅信這一點，我們的協議是為集成而設計的，來自 Swim 連接的所有生態系統。最初，我們的 LP 代幣旨在讓用戶可以在我們連接的任何鏈中接收可替代的 LP 代幣，在我們的第一個池 hexapool 的示例中，用戶可以選擇在 Solana/BNB 上接收 LP 代幣鏈和以太坊。這種設計的好處是用戶可以使用我們的 LP 代幣參與這些鏈中的生態系統，而不僅限於 Solana。
我們一直在與收益聚合器、借貸、錢包、價格聚合器和其他 AMM 合作以進行合作。此外，我們的部分代幣保留用於生態系統/合作夥伴激勵（35%）。這些代幣是為希望與我們合作的協議和團隊分發的。
我們的長期牽引戰略涉及與現有藍籌 DeFi 協議的許多合作夥伴關係，以使它們能夠在當前努力成為多鏈兼容。
我們已經取得一些協議與我們合作的意願，並且即將發布這些公告！
Q6. What is your long-term vision for the industry that Swim is working in? Is Swim worried that one day there will be another project with more advanced technology that can replace your project?
Our long term vision is to be the go to bridge solution for a) the average DeFi user b) big funds c) protocols looking for cross-chain compatibility
We would be excited to see any development in the space! However our approach is unique in the sense that we’re built on top of bridge solutions making Swim flexible to new technology, and making our priority building a user experience around new technology targeted for mass adoption
問題 6. 您對 Swim 所在行業的長期願景是什麼？ Swim 是否擔心有一天會有另一個技術更先進的項目可以取代你的項目？
我們的長期願景是成為 a) 普通 DeFi 用戶 b) 大資金 c) 尋求跨鏈兼容性的協議 的橋接解決方案
我們很高興看到該領域的任何發展！ 然而，我們的方法是獨一無二的，因為我們建立在橋樑解決方案之上，使 Swim 能夠靈活地適應新技術，並優先考慮圍繞旨在大規模採用的新技術構建用戶體驗
Q7. What can we expect in the next 3 months and in 2022 as a whole?
The next few months are super exciting times for Swim, let me share what we have planned out.
Currently the team is working hard on implementing the great feedback we have received to provide the best user experience for our community. This includes various upgrades across the board based off what our users have requested. Our $SWIM token launch will be coming in the near future, look out for more details on how to participate in our token launch!
Additionally, down the road, we’ll launch with staking features for users to participate in the Swim ecosystem + a Special NFT launch with utility for yield farmers/users.
On the product development side:
- Expansion into new ecosystems (Avalanche Terra, Polygon)
- Allow native to native asset swaps cross-chain by plugging in between AMMs (expanding from initial stablecoin hexapool)
- Integration with other protocols in Swim’s network
問題 7. 在接下來的 3 個月和整個 2022 年，我們可以期待什麼？
接下來的幾個月對 Swim 來說是非常激動人心的時刻，讓我分享一下我們的計劃。
目前，該團隊正在努力實施我們收到的重要反饋，以為我們的社區提供最佳用戶體驗。 這包括根據我們用戶的要求進行全面升級。 我們的 $SWIM 代幣發布將在不久的將來推出，請留意有關如何參與我們的代幣發布的更多詳細信息！
此外，在未來，我們將推出質押功能，供用戶參與 Swim 生態系統 + 特別 NFT 推出，為單產農民/用戶提供實用工具。
在產品開發方面：
- 擴展到新的生態系統（Avalanche、Terra、Polygon）
- 通過在 AMM 之間插入（從初始穩定幣 hexapool 擴展），允許本地到本地資產交換跨鏈
- 與 Swim 網絡中的其他協議集成
Q8. Who are your current investors?

第二階段 —現場提問 ：
Q1. Can you tell me something about swim’s project that makes it ahead of its competitors? What is your most confident competitive advantage in the project?
There are a few things that are very competitive about swim.
Right now Swim Protocol is the only way to swap native assets to and from Solana! Moreover, due to the technical challenges and real world friction of blockchains we’ve implemented a state machine in our UI to help users keep track of the funds at every step of the process. If any step fails for whatever reason the users have the ability to resume the transaction form where they left off.
Going forward: the strengths of our design are explained here: https://swimprotocol.medium.com/swims-design-33b92e6d688e
We prioritize
1. High throughput design
2. Decentralization
3. Composability
問題 1. 你能告訴我一些關於游泳項目使它領先於競爭對手的事情嗎？ 您在該項目中最有信心的競爭優勢是什麼？
游泳有一些非常有競爭力的事情。
目前，Swim Protocol 是將原生資產來去自如的在 Solana 與其他鏈交換的唯一方法！ 此外，由於區塊鏈的技術挑戰和現實世界的摩擦，我們在我們的 UI 中實施了一個狀態機，以幫助用戶跟踪流程的每一步資金。 如果任何步驟由於任何原因失敗，用戶都可以從他們離開的地方恢復交易表格。
展望未來：這裡解釋了我們設計的優勢：https://swimprotocol.medium.com/swims-design-33b92e6d688e
我們優先考慮
1. 高通量設計
2. 去中心化
3. 可組合性
Q2. How is the development of your project going? Can you describe in detail your current development work, market expansion plans, expected applications?
Our current development stack (just to name a few big projects):
1. Adding meta-pools this basically allows us to add every chain on womrhole’s network to Swim including Terra, Avalanche, Polygon, Fantom
2. Relayer: this enables one click cross chain swaps, which enable composability
3. SDK/integrations: after the relayer we’ll be focusing on integrating with a variety of protocols bringing cross-chain liquidity to thier paltforms
問題 2. 您的項目進展如何？ 您能否詳細描述一下您目前的開發工作、市場拓展計劃、預期應用？
我們當前的開發進度（僅舉幾個大項目）：
1. 添加 meta-pools 這基本上允許我們將 Womrhole 網絡上的每條鏈添加到 Swim，包括 Terra、Avalanche、Polygon、Fantom
2. Relayer：實現一鍵跨鏈交換，實現可組合性
3. SDK/集成：在中繼器之後，我們將專注於與各種協議集成，為他們的平台帶來跨鏈流動性
Q3. Now the project only supports stable currency exchange. Will other unstable currencies be opened in the future? Let users have more choices.
Yes! there will be other currencies in the future, in particular a way to get gas tokens for a particular chain that the user doesnt has gas for. for example SOL on Solana or BNB on BNB chain
問題 3. 現在項目只支持穩定幣兌換。 未來還會開放其他不穩定幣種嗎？ 讓用戶有更多的選擇。
是的！ 未來還會有其他貨幣，特別是一種為用戶沒有 gas 的特定鏈獲取 gas 代幣的方法。 例如 Solana 上的 SOL 或 BNB 鏈上的 BNB
Q4. How does Swim Protocol ensure the cross-chain bridge safety?
We have been audited by kudelski here is our Audit: https://swim.io/audits/kudelski.pdf
Essentially we are an application built on top of Wormhole. the cross-chain security and decentralization is leveraging off of the primitive that the wormhole has built!
問題 4. Swim Protocol如何保證跨鏈橋的安全？
我們已經接受了 kudelski 的審計，這裡是我們的審計：https://swim.io/audits/kudelski.pdf
本質上，我們是一個建立在 Wormhole 之上的應用程序。 跨鏈安全和去中心化利用了蟲洞構建的原語！
Q5. What if one day a certain chain got some problem and by accident the liquidity pool Swim supported couldn’t afford the sudden volume it had to deal with, is there any insurance or emergency procedures Swim had? Can you share with us?
This is actually one of the strongest strengths of Swim! Feel free to dive into our Design medium post as I previously posted. The market mechanics of Swim’s pools basically incentivise the rebalancing of pools. As cross-chain volume increases dramatically in one direction, Due to the stableswap slippage built into swim liquidity providers are basically incentivized to rebalance the pool making a few bps. We the current launch of Swim Protocol we’ve already seen the market react to rebalance large cross-chain moves on Swim
問題 5. 如果有一天某條鏈出現了問題，而 Swim 支持的流動資金池意外地無法承受它必須處理的突然交易量，Swim 是否有任何保險或緊急程序？ 可以和我們分享嗎？
這實際上是游泳的最強優勢之一！ 就像我之前發布的那樣，稍微隨意瀏覽我們的資料。 Swim 礦池的市場機制基本上激勵了礦池的再平衡。 隨著跨鏈交易量在一個方向上急劇增加，由於游泳中內置的穩定掉期滑點，流動性提供者基本上被激勵重新平衡池，從而產生幾個 bps。 我們當前推出的 Swim 協議，我們已經看到市場對重新平衡 Swim 上的大型跨鏈移動做出反應。
