How To Use RSKSwap Smart Contracts To Automate Trading

is a decentralized exchange to automatically exchange ERC20 tokens, there is no need to wait for a buyer or seller. It has the advantage of the low costs and security of the RSK network. It also doesn’t require KYC and has no limits for withdrawals or deposits. RSKSwap In this post I will present a step-by-step guide to create your own token and exchange it in automatically, using smart contracts. RSKSwap You can read the RSKSwap to learn more about it. Documentation Overview Here is a summary of the steps we will take in this tutorial: We will do these steps: Configure Metamask to connect to RSK testnet; Get some testnet R-BTCs at faucet; Connect Remix with RSK Testnet; Create a token Configure to use RSKSwap - UniswapV2Router02 Add liquidity in a pool on RSKSwap Query prices Do the swap itself Requirements Metamask - google chrome extension Remix - Solidity IDE online To learn more about Remix and Metamask, go to the tutorial . how to use Remix and Metamask to deploy smart contracts on the RSK Testnet Metamask Go to and install it. metamask.io Remix To use Remix, visit remix.ethereum.org Connect MetaMask to RSK testnet Click on the Metamask extension in your browser. Go to networks Select Custom RPC Fill in the fields with the information below: Network Name: RSK Testnet New RPC URL: https://public-node.testnet.rsk.co ChainID (optional): 31 Symbol (optional): tR-BTC Block Explorer URL (optional): https://explorer.testnet.rsk.co After configuring it, close the window and select the . RSK Testnet TestNet Faucet You can get some Testnet R-BTC at faucet.testnet.rsk.co Remix Go to remix.ethereum.org Solidity compiler In the third button on the left side, click Solidity compiler It is useful to enable automatic compilation (auto-compile), to compile smart contracts automatically when editing in Remix. Connect Remix to RSK Testnet First of all, be sure that you selected the RSK network in Metamask. Then, in Remix, on the left side, locate the fourth button - Deploy and run transactions.. In Environment, choose Injected Web3 Injected Web3 connects Remix with active accounts in Metamask A Metamask popup window will open to authorize the connection. First, select the account and click the Next button. You probably only have one, and in the other window, click the Connect button In Remix, in Deploy and run transactions, look at the Custom Network. ChainID 31 was defined at RSK Testnet custom network in Metamask. Create the token Click on the second button on the left side - file explorer Click on + create a new file File name: TokenLaBitconf.sol Copy and paste this token: pragma solidity ; ; contract TokenLaBitconf is ERC20 { (uint256 initialSupply) public ERC20("Token La Bitconf 2020", "TLB") { _mint(msg.sender, initialSupply); } } // SPDX-License-Identifier: MIT 0.6 .12 import "https://github.com/OpenZeppelin/openzeppelin-contracts/blob/master/contracts/token/ERC20/ERC20.sol" constructor Compile the token If you enabled auto-compile, the smart contract is already compiled and a green light will appear next to the third button from the left - Solidity compiler. If you didn't enable it: Click the third button from the left: Solidity compiler Click the Compile TokenLaBitconf.sol button Check the green sign on the third button with the message: compilation successful Deploy the token In the left side panel, go to the fourth button - Deploy and run transactions. For now we have only one smart contract, so it is automatically selected in the dropdown. We are going to create 1000 tokens, with 18 decimal places: 1000000000000000000000 For easy conversions, I recommend you use: eth-converter.com Click the Deploy button. It will open a Metamask popup window, to confirm the transaction to create the smart contract TokenLaBitconf.sol Click on confirm. At bottom right, we can check the message: creation of TokenLaBitconf pending... When the transaction was confirmed, copy the token address For example, mine is: 0x2346dDF3D362472A80cF18Ab288594F3204Fb415 RSKSwap - UniswapV2Router02 Now we are going to interact with RSKSwap's main smart contract, which is the UniswapV2Router02 RSK - UniswapV2Router02 testnet / mainnet address: 0xf55c496bb1058690DB1401c4b9C19F3f44374961 Interface UniswapV2Router02 We must have an interface with the functions of UniswapV2Router02 to use in this tutorial. In file explorer, create a new file. File name: InterfaceRouter.sol Copy and paste this example: pragma solidity ; contract InterfaceRouter { ; address WETH; ; ; } // SPDX-License-Identifier: MIT 0.6 .12 // Source: https://github.com/Think-and-Dev/rskswap-periphery/blob/master/contracts/UniswapV2Router02.sol; abstract function ( ) external payable ( ) addLiquidityETH address token, amountTokenDesired, amountTokenMin, amountETHMin, address to, deadline uint uint uint uint virtual returns amountToken, amountETH, liquidity uint uint uint public //Si quiero comprar tokens X, ¿cuándo tengo que enviar tokens Y? function ( ) external view ( ) getAmountsIn amountOut, address[] calldata path uint virtual returns [] memory amounts uint function ( ) external payable ( ) swapETHForExactTokens amountOut, address[] calldata path, address to, deadline uint uint virtual returns [] memory amounts uint In the right side of button, paste the UniswapV2Router02 address: At Address Now I have two contracts in the section: deployed contracts RSKSwap App Using the user interface of RSKSwap in , we can do simulations and follow along. Click on , choose the wallet, approve the connection on Metamask pop-up window, then go to . app.rskswap Connect to a wallet Metamask Pool Do these steps: Click Import it Click Select a token Paste your token address Click on the Token line to select it You will receive the message . No pool found Do NOT create the pool here because we will do it programmatically. Add Liquidity on RSKSwap To add liquidity to Uniswap, you always need to match it with two pairs. Let’s create a liquidity pool to exchange our token with tRBTC. You are the first liquidity provider. The ratio of tokens you add will set the price of this pool. For example: 0.1 RBTC = 100 tokens 0.001 RBTC por token 1000 token por RBTC We must do 2 steps to add liquidity: Approve in the Token ERC20::approve(address _spender, uint256 _amount) Add liquidity using the funcion UniswapV2Router02::addLiquidityETH(...) Approve Router to Spent Token In the token, we will approve RSKSwap in order to use 100 tokens. address _spender: 0xf55c496bb1058690DB1401c4b9C19F3f44374961 uint256 _amount: 100000000000000000000 These are the parameters in Approve function: , "0xf55c496bb1058690DB1401c4b9C19F3f44374961" "100000000000000000000" Then click the Approve / Transact button Add Liquidity using Remix In the interface, expand the addLiquidityETH button. InterfaceRouter Complete with the following parameters: = token address token = amount of tokens which we would like to add in the liquidity pool. amountTokenDesired = amountTokenDesired because it is the first time, the liquidity pool is empty amountTokenMin = we are creating this liquidity pool now defining the amount of RBTCs (Ethers), so we are defining the price of the token in RBTC (ETH) amountEthMin = your address, because you would like to receive the fees later to = it is a timestamp of Unix in the future, so view the current timestamp and add a few minutes. deadline I use the site to know the current timestamp. To add 5 minutes, use + 300 seconds. unixtimestamp Here is my example: = 0x2346dDF3D362472A80cF18Ab288594F3204Fb415 token = 100 * 10 ^18 (100 y 18 zeros) = 100000000000000000000 amountTokenDesired = amountTokenDesired because it’s the first time we add liquidity amountTokenMin = 0.001 * 10 ^18 = 1000000000000000 amountEthMin = to 0x1b1E4115dFD9352c3E2f6EFB289554C5Ee0560CD = 1610316260 deadline These are the parameters in addLiquidityETH function: , , , , , "0x2346dDF3D362472A80cF18Ab288594F3204Fb415" "100000000000000000000" "100000000000000000000" "1000000000000000" "0x1b1E4115dFD9352c3E2f6EFB289554C5Ee0560CD" "1610316260" you press the transact button, fill in the amount of RBTCs (ETHs) to send at the top of the form. We will send 0.001 RBTC (Ether) BEFORE Click the button or and confirm the transaction on Metamask. Transact addLiquidityETH Check the RSKSwap app In the RSKSwap app, go to , you should probably find your pool now! Pool WRBTC / WETH ERC20 Address The address of the WETH ERC20 token can change from one network to another, but it is saved in a public variable of UniswapV2Router02 contract and we can query it in the interface. So the WRBTC = WETH is . 0x09B6Ca5E4496238a1F176aEA6bB607db96C2286E Get prices Let's get quotes and prices in RSKSwap programmatically. If I would like to buy tokens, how many WETH (wRBTC) do I need to send? To know this I will use the function, with the parameters: getAmountsIn amountOut = The amount I would like to receive path = el path is an array of addresses used to exchange, in this case: [wethAddress, tokenAddress] This will calculate the amount you need to provide, so you will provide some RBTCs / ETHs (or wRBTC / wETH, which are automatically converted), since you want to receive an amount of tokens. Now we would like to have 1 token (1 * 10 ^ 18). What is the price? amountOut = Receive 1 token = 1 * 10 ^ 18 = 1000000000000000000 path = ["0x09B6Ca5E4496238a1F176aEA6bB607db96C2286E", "0x2346dDF3D362472A80cF18Ab288594F3204Fb415"] Call function using the parameters getAmountsIn , , ] "1000000000000000000" "0x09B6Ca5E4496238a1F176aEA6bB607db96C2286E" "0x2346dDF3D362472A80cF18Ab288594F3204Fb415" For our example, the result is amounts 10131404313952,1000000000000000000 Which means that: 10131404313952 wei RBTC (ETH) = 1000000000000000000 wei Token 0.0010131404313952 RBTC (ETH) = 1 Token I would like to buy 1 Token, I must send 0.0010131404313952 RBTC (ETH). Why aren't you sending exactly 0.001 RBTC (ETH)? It has a small fee of 0.30%. Also the effect of this trade will influence reserves and, therefore, it is necessary to adjust the formula of the constant product, so that the product must remain constant. This will give a different price to the price given to foreign exchange reserves. Execute the swap The last step is to execute an exchange. That's pretty easy now that you understand how the Router works. When you buy tokens with RBTC (ETH), which are probably one of the most common scenarios, you will call the function, with parameters: swapETHForExactTokens amountOut = amount of tokens, including the decimals places, so 1 token is 1 * 10 ^ 18 path = is the array ["addressWei", "addressToken"] to = it is your address deadline = the Unix timestamp in the future, so get the current timestamp and add a few minutes. For example, I want to buy 1 Token: 0.0010131404313952 RBTC (ETH) = 1 Token amountOut = 1000000000000000000 path = ["0x09B6Ca5E4496238a1F176aEA6bB607db96C2286E", "0x2346dDF3D362472A80cF18Ab288594F3204Fb415"] to = 0x54bE4C3721d2dE76eE0104e53b52Ca8B3A1E27Ca deadline = 1607694938 These are the parameters to use in the funcion : swapETHForExactTokens ,[ , ], , "1000000000000000000" "0x09B6Ca5E4496238a1F176aEA6bB607db96C2286E" "0x2346dDF3D362472A80cF18Ab288594F3204Fb415" "0x54bE4C3721d2dE76eE0104e53b52Ca8B3A1E27Ca" "1610317574" pressing the transact button, fill in the amount of RBTCs (ETHs) to send at the top of the form. We will send 10131404313952 WEI BEFORE Click the button or . Transact swapETHForExactTokens Check the RSKSwap app In the RSKSwap app, go to the Pool and confirm that you have one less token! Final considerations In this tutorial, I have shown you how to create a token and exchange it programmatically, using RSKSwap smart contracts.
