AMMs are decentralized exchange protocols that allow any party to trade one asset for another in a trust-less manner against an automated trading mechanism (i.e. smart contract). Furthermore, participants can also provide liquidity to a liquidity pool allowing anyone to become a market maker and earn fees for the liquidity they provide.
