SODAX for Optimism - SODAX Docs

No new contracts. SODAX’s Optimism spoke contracts are already live; your entire integration is TypeScript. Your users sign ordinary EVM transactions on OP Mainnet, and SODAX coordinates cross-network execution, routing, and recovery behind the scenes.

You keep shipping on Optimism. SODAX absorbs the cross-network execution layer, so your product can offer trading and lending against every asset in the SODAX System, 166 across all supported networks, without leaving your stack. Integration happens in TypeScript, at the SDK or React layer. There is nothing to deploy, audit, or maintain on-chain. Using SODAX is free. Trades carry a fixed 0.1% base fee taken by the protocol, and you set your own platform fee on top. That part is fully yours, both the rate and the revenue. See Monetize SDK.

What to know on Optimism

Optimism (OP Mainnet, chain ID 10) takes the standard SODAX EVM path: the same EvmWalletProvider as every other EVM network, ERC-20 approvals for tokens, no approval for native ETH, and no chain-specific handling in the SDK. ETH is the gas token, with 18 decimals. The one difference from Ethereum itself is the fee. Every OP Mainnet transaction pays an L1 data fee in ETH on top of execution gas, and the SDK’s estimateGas counts execution gas units only. See Fees.

What you can build

Two SODAX modules are relevant to Optimism builders:

Swaps

Intent-based cross-network swaps. Users swap between ETH or ERC-20 tokens on Optimism and assets on any supported network with one signed transaction. Solvers fill; SODAX routes and settles.

Money Market

Cross-network lending and borrowing. Supply from Optimism, borrow to Optimism or any other supported network, and manage positions without running lending infrastructure.

Path	Best for	Start here
`@sodax/sdk`	Full control from any TypeScript backend or frontend	Quickstart
`@sodax/dapp-kit` + `@sodax/wallet-sdk-react`	React apps that want hooks and wallet connectivity out of the box	Wallets
Builders MCP	Building with AI agents against the full SODAX stack	See below

Scope and build with AI

Point your AI coding assistant at the SODAX Builders MCP and it gains live access to the whole SODAX System: supported chains and tokens, real swap quotes, money market rates, intent history, and these docs. It works in Claude, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf, and any other MCP-capable client.

}

Use it to scope before you commit: your assistant can read your own codebase, pull real quotes and token lists, and map exactly where SODAX fits in your product. Full tool list and per-client setup at builders.sodax.com.
