Trading Pairs

The Lekker Protocol is designed to support a wide range of assets, including both crypto-native assets and onchain Real World Assets (RWA).

Any two of these assets can be combined into a trading pair, where one asset is long (gains accrue on price appreciation and losses on depreciation), and the other is short (gains accrue on price depreciation and losses on appreciation), represented as LONG/SHORT.

For instance, a pair of wstETH/ETH is a LONG/SHORT pair, where wstETH is the long asset, and ETH is the short asset.

In the initial implementation of Lekker, any asset available on Uniswap V3 and Aave V3 can be used to create a new LONG/SHORT pair.
