Primary features
The Dymension platform is a Cosmos SDK-based modular blockchain that serves as a settlement and security hub for RollApps — application-specific Layer 2 rollups that any developer can deploy using the RollApp Development Kit (RDK) without requiring deep blockchain engineering expertise. Built to resolve the scalability trilemma of monolithic chains, the Dymension platform combines a shared settlement layer, native AMM liquidity, and IBC-native interoperability to create a unified, high-throughput rollup ecosystem.
- RollApp Framework — Developers deploy sovereign app-specific rollups with EVM or CosmWasm in minutes.
- Dymension Hub — Shared settlement layer providing security, liquidity, and IBC connectivity to all RollApps.
- Native AMM — Embedded automated market maker enables shared liquidity across the entire RollApp ecosystem.
- DYM Token — Powers staking, governance, transaction fees, and cross-chain value transfer throughout the network.
In short, the Dymension platform transforms rollup deployment into a permissionless, modular experience — enabling anyone to launch a fully sovereign, IBC-connected blockchain application in a matter of minutes.

Shared Liquidity AMM
One native AMM pools liquidity across all RollApps.
User benefits
The Dymension platform enables developers to launch application-specific blockchains with dedicated throughput, custom tokenomics, and sovereign governance — without building or maintaining their own validator set or bridge infrastructure. End users of Dymension RollApps benefit from near-instant transactions and low fees while retaining IBC-grade asset security that eliminates the risks of conventional cross-chain bridges.
- RollApp-specific chains avoid shared congestion, delivering consistently fast and cheap transactions for each application.
- IBC-native cross-chain messaging secures all inter-RollApp transfers without centralized multisig bridge risk.
- The native AMM on Dymension Hub ensures liquidity is pooled and accessible across the entire ecosystem from day one.
- DYM staking rewards incentivize validators and delegators to actively participate in network security and governance.
- Developers can deploy EVM-compatible or CosmWasm RollApps, keeping the platform accessible to the full spectrum of blockchain builders.
Overall, Dymension exists to make modular, application-specific blockchain deployment as accessible and permissionless as launching a smart contract.
