Risk & Arbitrage Protections

Under-the-hood improvements focused on performance, pricing accuracy, and protection from toxic flow.

Smarter Fee & Flow Logic

  • 1-min Volatility Windows: Price volatility is tracked in rolling 1-minute windows directly on-chain.

  • Oracle-Based Pricing: Fees is calculated using oracle-driven price changes instead of just swap deltas.

  • Unified Swap Direction Handling: Swap direction logic (A→B & B→A) is evaluated together using shared price and volatility context.

Reliable Execution During Congestion

  • Compute-Aware Batching: Large transactions are split into smaller compute-efficient instructions.

  • Adaptive Priority Fees: GAMMA adjusts priority fees in real time to increase success during network congestion.

These changes reduce missed updates on volatile pairs and improve swap reliability.

Improved Oracle Management

  • Slot-Based Staleness Checks: Price freshness is now tracked by Solana slot height instead of wall-clock time, improving consistency.

  • Smarter CEX Routing: Off-chain price polling is routed via the most liquid CEX book, not just aggregator feeds.

Toxic Flow Resistance

  • Directional Fees Optimization: LP protection mechanisms now handle fee symmetry more efficiently, reducing arbitrage exposure.

These measures help GAMMA deliver better pricing, reduce arb risk, and grow yield for LPs.
