Introducing Superposition

Superposition is a step into the world of DeFi after a long period of work. Built on Arbitrum, Superposition is the first DeFi-specific Layer-3. It offers a new on-chain architecture: focused on the on-chain order book, with fast execution speeds, shared and permissionless liquidity, Account Abstraction, and zero fees while providing higher returns to Liquidity Providers and traders. The current problems of on-chain trading are rapidly emerging. With 85% of transactions still taking place on centralized exchanges, it means giving up ownership of user liquidity. This can lead to misuse of user funds or leakage of valuable customer data.

Existing DEX designs, such as Automated Market Makers, face issues such as high gas fees, liquidity fragmentation and deviation losses. Superposition aims to solve these problems by providing an industry-specific infrastructure and a unified platform. Utility Mining and ƒluid Assets will be naturally integrated, with each transaction incentivized.
Superposition is the first DeFi-native Layer-3 developed using the Arbitrum Nitro stack and Stylus. By offering Account Abstraction as an API, it offers low fees, faster speeds and execution times, and a composable application ecosystem. The order book will be accessible to everyone in a permissioned manner, eliminating the need to launch liquidity without the need for incentive programs.

Why Arbitrum Layer-3? Superposition builds on top of the Arbitrum and EVM+ ecosystem and tools, which currently come with a more mature environment, deeper liquidity and a larger user base. Superposition improves the developer experience and allows developers to use the Ethereum tools they already know and are familiar with, while supporting dedicated throughput.
Superposition offers native core features such as Account Abstraction, which gives developers the ability to offer this feature natively through an SDK and allows applications such as DEXs to easily support Web2 commerce experiences. Layer-3 will offer a natively permitted order book, allowing any developer to access shared and deep liquidity. As Superposition addresses core offerings, protocols can innovate and offer unique products to users.

It has been stated that Superposition will use 100 times less memory than current offerings and will be at least 10 times cheaper and faster.
