In the previous post, we established why constant product AMMs fail to efficiently handle stable assets, and why @CurveFinance had to rethink the entire pricing problem from first principles. Now we can finally look at what Curve actually built instead. The StableSwap Invariant
![]()
AI visual note: Curve's StableSwap invariant is visualized through: a comparison showing how constant product fails for the 50k USDC swap (slippage rising from 0.1% to 6% as liquidity is exhausted) versus StableSwap maintaining 0.1% slippage through its liquidity amplification mechanism; a Stablecoin AMM chart plotting y(s) vs x(s) showing how StableSwap (purple) blends constant product (10^(-x)+x) with constant sum (10^(-x)+x) curves; and an Amplification Coefficient graph demonstrating how increasing A tightens liquidity around the balanced price point, with @CurveFinance and @DiphHunter18 credited as sources.
what's so funny about that?
