Other than being on another chain how does bitmatrix significantly differ from something like uniswap?
Bitmatrix is functionally equivalent to Uniswap V2, however, there are some tradeoffs. The nature of the EVM model inherently allows contract-contract calls. While this brings various benefits such as pool-to-pool swaps, it as a downside allows flash-loan attacks. This is fundamentally not possible when operating in a UTXO environment.
On the other hand, Bitmatrix users, when integrated with liquid.taxi, can pay for execution in any desired asset. This means users can interact with a smart contract without holding the gas asset such as L-BTC. This brings an overall frictionless user experience.
