# What is Enoki?

Enoki Exchange is a fully asynchronous and scalable DEX built on the Internet Computer. You can swap, provide liquidity, and be a market maker - all without any gas fees.

### Goals

Enoki seeks to scale DeFi in the Internet Computer. Due to the asynchronous nature of canisters, a simple AMM copied from Ethereum cannot scale easily.

Enoki has therefore created both a proof-of-concept sharded token as well as a DEX that provides constant availability for immediate swaps.
