What Is the Role of an Aggregator in Minimizing Market Impact on a DEX?

A DEX aggregator scans multiple decentralized exchanges and liquidity pools to find the best possible price for a trade. It then splits the large order across these various venues to minimize the overall market impact and slippage that would occur if the entire order hit a single pool.

This intelligent routing ensures optimal execution for the user.
