Bob Baxley is a Core Contributor at Maverick Protocol.

In this episode of The Edge Podcast, we cover a rising star among new AMMs on Ethereum Mainnet and zkSync Era--Maverick. Maverick has earned a spot as a top 5 DEX on Ethereum based on daily trading volume and the 2nd highest traded DEX on zkSync Era. Since launching in March 2023, Maverick has introduced new innovations to the AMM sector with automated directional liquidity provisions.

Bob drops all the alpha on different liquidity strategies unlocked by their automated directional LPs!
