# Uniswap - a trustless, decentralized exchange for Ether and ERC20 tokens # Uniswap - a trustless, decentralized exchange for Ether and ERC20 tokens
Uniswap exchange uses a "Market Maker" mechanism, where liquidity providers store 2 tokens within an Ethereum smart contract. An exchange rate is set between the tokens based on the relative availibility of each token. Arbitrage ensures that the rate will be the same as on other exchanges.
