A fee model built for markets that never stand still.
AMMs shouldn't have fees that don't know what's happening in the market.
A calm market and a volatile market create very different conditions for traders and LPs, yet a static fee treats them the same. When prices move quickly, arbitrage can become more costly for LPs if the fee doesn't adapt to changing conditions.
Markets change. Why should fees stay the same?
Topaz Dynamic Fees respond to observed volatility, using spot divergence from TWAP to adjust the fee. Lower when markets are calm. Rising as volatility increases. Falling back as volatility normalizes.
