Chromo 2.0: The AI-Driven Liquidity Engine of Mitosis

"Chromo 2.0 isn’t just shipping features. It’s dropping a composable brain for DeFi."
— Luke 🧬, Mitosis CPO

🧩 Introduction

Chromo Exchange is the native AMM and composability layer of the Mitosis ecosystem. But Chromo is not a typical swap platform.

With the launch of Chromo 2.0, it has evolved into an AI-driven, modular DeFi engine—built specifically to handle programmable vault liquidity, cross-chain routing, and intelligent trade execution.

Chromo enables users to enter, exit, or switch between yield strategies like Matrix and EOL vaults instantly, while also supporting vanilla assets, advanced order types, and full plugin-based logic.


⚙️ What Is Chromo?

Chromo is the first AMM designed from the ground up for vault-aware tokens like maUSDC and miETH. It operates natively on Mitosis and gives users:

  • One-click swaps between Matrix, EOL, and vanilla assets
  • Strategy switching without leaving vault logic
  • Real-time routing across multiple chains
  • Full liquidity utility: vault tokens become tradable, collateralizable, composable capital

🚀 What’s New in Chromo 2.0?

🧠 AI-Powered Modular Engine

At the core of Chromo 2.0 is the Plugin Router, a powerful AMM brain that lets developers and LPs snap on functional modules to any pool. These modules include:

Module NameFunctionality
Security GuardrailsRisk filters, slippage limits, pool thresholds
Live OraclesReal-time pricing and on-chain validation
Dynamic FeesAdjust fees based on volatility, TVL, or usage
WhitelistsPermissioned access, LP or asset gating
Safety NetsCircuit breakers, loss limits, emergency locks
Chromo Turbo BoostAccelerated execution during network congestion
Funding RailsAuto-yield or fee distribution across strategies
Limit OrdersCreate custom order pricing with expiration logic
DCA ModuleSchedule recurring buys/sells across vault/token pairs
Each pool can activate any combination of these 9 modules, giving LPs and protocols customized liquidity logic per vault or asset class.

🧠 AI Layer for Trade Optimization

Chromo 2.0 isn’t just modular—it’s intelligent.

The platform features an embedded AI layer that improves trade execution across the board:

  • Limit Orders – Predefined buy/sell levels with built-in expiry and liquidity logic
  • DCA – Automated dollar-cost-averaging with yield-aware timing
  • Front-running Protection – AI-assisted gas/sandwich resistance
  • Slippage & Fee Optimization – Routes trades based on network conditions, vault status, and fee cost
This makes Chromo 2.0 one of the first AI-powered AMMs in production—offering not just automation, but true execution intelligence.

🔄 Real Use Cases

  1. Switch maUSDC to miUSDC between Matrix and EOL strategies with one swap
  2. Exit maETH to ETH directly—no unwrapping or bridging
  3. Set a limit order to swap miUSDC to maETH at a target price
  4. Automate DCA from vanilla USDC into miUSDC every 24h
  5. Route cross-chain liquidity between vault tokens on Arbitrum and Optimism
No other AMM on any chain supports vault routing, AI execution, and modular logic—all in one.

🔐 Composability, Not Just Swaps

Chromo’s deep integration with Mitosis vaults means it can do more than swap:

  • Strategy Migration – Move liquidity from Matrix to EOL without leaving DeFi
  • Vault Token Arbitrage – Trade based on yield curve divergence
  • Governance Liquidity – Swap into gMITO LP positions, DCA into voter power
  • Collateral Utility – LP tokens from Chromo can be used in protocols like Telo Money

🌉 Cross-Chain, Vault-Native

Powered by Mitosis’ L1 cross-chain engine and Hyperlane, Chromo routes vault token swaps between chains natively—without needing external bridges.

Example: Swap maUSDC (Arbitrum) → miUSDC (Linea) in one transaction
Vault logic is preserved and synced across chains

🧪 Field-Tested in Game of MITO

Chromo was first introduced during Game of MITO, where users:

  • Swapped maAssets, earned XP, climbed the leaderboard
  • Tested vault-aware routing and LP logic
  • Provided critical feedback that shaped the 2.0 redesign

📊 Interface Preview

On https://chromo.exchange, users can already:

  • Choose between Matrix, EOL, or Vanilla assets
  • View vault APR and logic before swapping
  • Track LP pool stats and vault history
  • Interact via a clean, chain-agnostic interface with automatic router logic

🧬 Final Thoughts

Chromo 2.0 is no longer just an AMM—it’s the programmable brain of the Mitosis DeFi stack.

By combining vault logic, plugin-based routing, AI execution, and chain-agnostic composability, it sets a new standard for what liquidity infrastructure should look like in 2025.

Vault tokens are no longer locked capital—they're DeFi money in motion.

Strap in. Chromo is live.
