Top 10 questions about CenturionDEX#
CenturionDEX is the decentralized exchange interface for the Centurion Protocol on the Centurion blockchain. These answers cover the most common setup, swap, liquidity, and security questions.
1. What network does CenturionDEX use?#
CenturionDEX operates on Centurion mainnet, chain ID 286. Fornax (287) and Centaurus (288) are Centurion testnets. It does not provide protocol pools on third-party blockchains.
2. What are CTN and WCTN?#
CTN is Centurion's native token and pays network costs. WCTN is the wrapped CRC-20 form used inside pools. The interface can wrap CTN when it enters a pool, but WCTN cannot directly pay for Newtons.
3. What protocol versions are available?#
CenturionDEX supports v2 and v3. v2 uses full-range x · y = k pools, a flat 0.30% swap fee, and CRC-20 LP tokens. v3 uses concentrated liquidity, ticks, CRC-721 position NFTs, and 0.01%, 0.05%, 0.30%, or 1.00% fee tiers.
4. Why do I need an approval?#
A CRC-20 approval lets the selected protocol contract transfer up to an allowed token amount for a swap or liquidity action. Native CTN does not require a CRC-20 approval. Review the spender and allowance before confirming.
5. What is a network cost?#
Centurion computation is measured in Newtons and paid in CTN. The fee market uses a per-block base fee plus a transaction priority fee. A reverted transaction can still consume CTN because it used network computation.
6. What is price impact?#
Price impact is the price movement caused by your trade against available AMM liquidity. It increases when the trade is large relative to v2 reserves or active v3 liquidity.
7. What is slippage tolerance?#
Slippage tolerance is the maximum unfavorable movement allowed between quote and execution. It is not a protocol fee and does not reduce price impact. If output falls below the minimum received, the swap should revert.
8. Why did my swap fail?#
Common causes include market movement beyond tolerance, insufficient CTN, missing allowance, token transfer restrictions, inactive v3 liquidity, a pending earlier nonce, or the wrong network. Read the wallet simulation and error before retrying.
9. Is every listed token safe?#
No. Token and pool creation are permissionless. Verify contract addresses, transfer behavior, administrator controls, liquidity, and wallet requests. A logo or visible pool is not an endorsement.
10. How do I get legitimate support?#
Start from a current official Centurion source and follow its published support links. Ignore unsolicited direct messages. No legitimate representative needs your recovery phrase, private key, password, remote access, or a payment to recover funds.
