lp-token-v5

The LP token and exchange contract for two-coin CryptoSwap pools are two separate contracts from each other. Newer versions, like Tricrypto-NG, combine both the LP token and exchange contract into a single contract.

The LP token contract is created from the **token_implementation**using the create_forwarder_to() function, which is a built-in function in Vyper.

After deployment, the LP token contract is then initialized through the **initialize()**function.

info

Newer deployments might make use of blueprint contracts (EIP-5202), eliminating the need for an **initialize()**function.

To query the currently implemented LP token contract:

>>> Factory.token_implementation()
'0xc08550A4cc5333f40e593eCc4C4724808085D304'

Minting and Burning​

LP Tokens are minted when users deposit funds into the liquidity pool. Upon calling the add_liquidity function on the pool, it triggers the mint function of the LP Token to mint the corresponding tokens. When liquidity is withdrawn using remove_liquidity, the LP tokens are burned through the burnFrom method.

The logic for both minting and burning the tokens resides in the pool contract.

mint​
