## What Is SushiSwap? SushiSwap is a decentralized exchange ([DEX](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/glossary/decentralized-exchange-dex)) that uses an [AMM](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/glossary/automated-market-maker-amm). This automated market maker utilizes [smart contracts](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/glossary/smart-contract) to create markets for trading pairs of different tokens. [Liquidity providers ](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/glossary/liquidity-provider-tokens-lp-tokens)supply these smart contracts with capital and enable frictionless trading. The exchange was one of the earliest to adopt this model and was initially a [fork](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/glossary/fork-software) of UniSwap, another popular DEX. It later grew into one of the biggest exchanges in all of [DeFi](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/glossary/defi) and is now available on almost all [EVM](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/glossary/ethereum-virtual-machine-evm)-compatible [layer-one blockchains](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/glossary/layer-1-blockchain) and several [layer-two](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/glossary/layer-2) solutions for [Ethereum](https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/ethereum/). The exchange targets mostly DeFi traders and institutions that want to enjoy [permissionless](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/glossary/permissionless) and [non-custodial](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/glossary/non-custodial) trading. It does away with liquidity issues and has a more egalitarian [governance](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/glossary/governance) approach than other exchanges. Its native token can be used for voting on governance proposals. Its core products include the Bento Box, a token vault that generates yield for the capital deposited into it. Kashi lending is a lending and [margin trading](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/glossary/margin-trading) platform where anyone can create customized and gas-efficient markets for tokens.

Finally, Miso provides projects with access to trading on the exchange itself, either through fixed price or dutch auction options. ## Who Are the SushiSwap Founders?
