Decentralized cryptocurrency exchange SushiSwap has announced that it will expand its decentralized exchange to the Aptos Blockchain. As part of the expansion, SushiSwap’s second version of automated market maker (AMM) will be integrated into the Aptos network.

SushiSwap, the decentralized cryptocurrency exchange that has become popular since its launch, will expand to the Aptos Blockchain, which is one of the popular Blockchains. This expansion will allow the decentralized finance project to integrate with a Blockchain that is not natively compatible with the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) for the first time. As part of this significant expansion, SushiSwap’s second version of automated market maker (AMM) will also be integrated into the Aptos network.

According to a statement from the SushiSwap team, “This integration marks SushiSwap’s first entry into a non-EVM Blockchain.” The statement also added, “The integration with Aptos is crucial for advancing SushiSwap’s goals of standing out in inter-blockchain and multi-blockchain environments.”

Among the main EVM-compatible Blockchains that SushiSwap currently operates on are Ethereum (ETH), Fantom (FTM), Polygon (MATIC), Arbitrum (ARB), BNB Chain, and other Blockchains.
