# Intro

Dystopia is a decentralized exchange and automated market marker that provides efficient token swaps and deep liquidity for stablecoins and other assets. It has a sophisticated governance structure using the ve(3,3) system that provides the possibility to maximize gains for all users of the ecosystem.

Dystopia takes a cue from Solidly's vision that all users can create a virtuous cycle through cooperation. Those that lock their DYST tokens into veDYST vote on which Dystopia liquidity pools will get boosted DYST token emissions, while in return receiving the fee's that the liquidity pools generate.

The principle of ve(3,3) is that individuals with different goals can mutually obtain a positive result through cooperation.
