Everything you need to know to use LiberationDex safely and effectively.
What is LiberationDex?
A non-custodial, anonymous Ethereum token swap interface.
LiberationDex is a decentralized exchange (DEX) interface built exclusively for the Ethereum network. It allows any user to swap ERC-20 tokens directly from their own wallet, without creating an account, providing personal information, or trusting a third party with their funds.
Swaps are routed through 1inch's AggregationRouterV6 — the same battle-tested infrastructure that processes billions of dollars in volume. LiberationDex provides a streamlined, security-focused interface on top of this infrastructure, with a transparent 0.15% protocol fee applied to each swap output.
LiberationDex never holds your funds, never asks for your private key, and never requires you to identify yourself. You remain in complete control of your assets at all times.
How to Connect a Wallet
LiberationDex supports MetaMask, WalletConnect, and Coinbase Wallet.

Understanding Fees
Every swap involves three types of fees. All are disclosed before confirmation.
| FEE TYPE | AMOUNT | RECIPIENT | DESCRIPTION |
|---|---|---|---|
| DEX Pool Fee | 0.01% – 1.00% | Liquidity Providers | Fee paid to DEX liquidity providers, aggregated by 1inch across the best available pools. |
| LiberationDex Protocol Fee | 0.15% | LiberationDex Protocol | Deducted from swap output. Funds infrastructure, security, and development. |
| Network Gas Fee | Variable | Ethereum Validators | ETH paid to process your transaction on the Ethereum network. Varies with congestion. |
Slippage Tolerance and Price Impact
Slippage tolerance is the maximum percentage difference between the quoted price and the executed price that you are willing to accept. If the price moves beyond your slippage tolerance before your transaction is confirmed, the transaction will automatically revert to protect you from receiving significantly less than expected.
Price impact is the effect your trade has on the pool price. Large trades relative to pool liquidity cause higher price impact, meaning you receive a worse rate. LiberationDex displays price impact warnings: yellow for moderate impact (>1%), orange for high impact (>3%), and red for severe impact (>5%).
MEV Protection (Flashbots)
Maximal Extractable Value (MEV) bots monitor the public Ethereum mempool and can insert transactions before and after yours (a "sandwich attack") to profit at your expense, resulting in you receiving less tokens than quoted.
When MEV Protection is enabled in the swap settings, LiberationDex routes your transaction through Flashbots' private RPC endpoint, bypassing the public mempool entirely. Your transaction is submitted directly to block builders, making it invisible to front-running bots. This is strongly recommended for swaps above $1,000 USD equivalent.
Security Best Practices
Protect yourself. LiberationDex cannot protect you if you do not follow these guidelines.
