FAQ
Common questions.
What is Ramses?+
Ramses is a decentralized exchange on several blockchain networks. Liquidity providers supply tokens, and traders swap them. Each pool’s settings decide who gets fees and who can earn rewards.
Sources
Which chains does Ramses support?+
The cited contract directory lists Arbitrum, HyperEVM, Robinhood Chain, and Polygon. Each network has its own available products and pool types.
Sources
Is a Ramses Ethereum DEX already live?+
The cited plans describe Ethereum RAM and tools for moving tokens between networks. Those plans do not establish that a Ramses exchange is live on Ethereum.
Sources
Do I need a wallet to use this kit?+
No. You can use the lessons, quizzes, and Liquidity Lab without a wallet. Real transactions happen separately in the official Ramses app.
Is this kit live market data?+
No. The kit explains dated documentation. The lab uses example numbers you can change; it does not read live pools or predict returns.
Do LPs keep 95% of fees?+
The documented fee-only default gives LPs 95% of swap fees. Gauged pools send swap fees to voters and token rewards to eligible LPs. The percentage describes fees, not your deposit.
Sources
Do gauged LPs earn both 95% of fees and emissions?+
Under the documented gauged default, swap fees go to voters. Eligible LPs receive token rewards called emissions. The fee-only default instead gives LPs 95% of swap fees.
Sources
Does a higher fee tier always mean more income?+
No. A higher fee charges more per trade, but it can change how many trades use the pool. Your share of active liquidity and changes in token value also matter.
Sources
Does Ramses always earn LPs more than another DEX?+
No. Compare actual fees, trading volume, active liquidity, price movements, and costs. A bigger share of fees alone does not prove a better total result.
Sources
Do CL fees adjust automatically on every swap?+
The cited technical docs describe authorized updates to concentrated-liquidity fees. DLMM uses separate variable fees that respond to price moving between its bins.
Sources
What happens if my CL position leaves its range?+
It holds one token and stops taking part in swaps at the outside price. Fees already earned are not erased just because price leaves. It can become active again if price returns.
Sources
Is out of range the same as liquidation?+
No. Your price range no longer includes the market price, but you still own the tokens left in the position. Being out of range alone does not liquidate it.
Sources
Is a tight range better than a wide one?+
Neither is always better. A tight range concentrates liquidity around fewer prices, but it can become inactive sooner and need more management.
Sources
Why is my starting deposit not exactly 50/50?+
Your token mix depends on the current price and both range limits. Equal percentage distances above and below the price do not necessarily create a deposit of equal token values.
Sources
Can a range order reverse after converting?+
Yes. While the liquidity stays in the pool, trading can convert the tokens back if price moves through the range in the other direction.
Sources
Does the lab model actual Ramses ticks?+
The lab uses a simplified, continuous model to explain concentrated-liquidity balances. It does not use exact network tick rules, model DLMM bins, or submit transactions.
Sources
How do I claim DLMM fees?+
In the documented DLMM design, fees stay in the bin reserves backing your shares. You receive those accumulated assets by removing liquidity, rather than using a separate concentrated-liquidity fee claim.
Sources
Is DLMM available everywhere Ramses is deployed?+
The cited DLMM documentation describes Robinhood and its fee-only setup. Available pool types differ by network.
Sources
What is the difference between RAM and xRAM?+
RAM is the base token. xRAM has transfer restrictions and conversion rules. Staking xRAM gives voting power in the voting system.
Sources
What happens when 100 RAM becomes xRAM?+
Under the documented setup, you receive 100 xRAM. Of the original RAM, 50 is burned and 50 stays as backing for direct redemption.
Sources
Does 100 xRAM redeem for 100 RAM?+
Under the documented direct-redemption setup, 100 xRAM returns 50 RAM. Converting 100 RAM initially creates 100 xRAM, burns 50 RAM, and keeps 50 RAM as backing.
Sources
Are r33 and hyperRAM the same product family?+
Yes. Both refer to the wrapper for staked xRAM; its HyperEVM name is hyperRAM. It automates voting and reinvests rewards into xRAM backing.
Sources
Can a liquid wrapper always be sold instantly?+
No. Selling requires enough market liquidity and an acceptable quote. Creating or redeeming wrapper shares may also depend on allowed times and the underlying contracts’ state.
Sources
Does r33 guarantee a rising dollar price?+
No. Reinvested rewards can increase the xRAM backing each share while the market prices of the tokens still fall.
Sources
Does every swap immediately burn RAM?+
No. Robinhood protocol revenue accumulates in BuybackModule for authorized execution. Market purchases send RAM to the dead address. Execution is role-gated and uses approved aggregators with input/output limits. Direct RAM input can skip the purchase.
Sources
Is the one-billion RAM cap a lifetime issuance limit?+
No. The cited cap limits outstanding supply at a given time, not lifetime issuance. Actual token burns may create room under a cap, but Robinhood BuybackModule dead-address transfers do not decrement totalSupply. Neither the cap nor buybacks guarantees falling usable supply.
Sources
When does an epoch start?+
Thursday at 00:00 UTC. Votes placed during the current week apply to the following reward week.
Sources
Do AutoVaults compound my xRAM?+
No. AutoVaults vote automatically and convert rewards into a supported token you claim. r33 reinvests rewards into the xRAM backing its shares.
Sources
Can I claim or withdraw from an AutoVault at any time?+
No. Processing times and the final hour before a new epoch can block claims and withdrawals. Withdrawing early can also lose that epoch’s rewards.
Sources
Can claiming LP emissions early cost rewards?+
Yes, on positions with reward protection. An early claim or liquidity change can permanently lose affected token rewards. The timer is configurable and does not take away your deposited LP assets.
Sources
Is APR the same as profit?+
No. APR usually turns an income rate into a yearly estimate. Falling token values and costs can outweigh that income and leave you with a loss.
Sources
Is Ramses immutable because it is noncustodial?+
No. Users control their positions, but authorized roles can still change settings such as fees and gauges. Check the current security documentation to understand those powers.
Sources
Which audits can I cite?+
The official index links Ramses V3 reviews by Consensys Diligence and Code4rena. Other linked reviews cover shared or adapted Etherex and shadow-x33 code; they are not audits of a specific Ramses deployment.
Sources
Does an audit make depositing risk-free?+
No. Audits cover particular code and versions. Contract flaws, connected systems, token prices, and administrative powers can still cause losses.
Sources
Where is my learning progress saved?+
In this browser only. It is not an account or an official certificate. Clearing browser storage deletes your saved progress.
Can I share a liquidity example?+
Yes. Open Share in the lab to copy a scenario link, or export JSON. The shared link includes the example inputs, so leave private information out of its name.
Does 100% for buybacks mean LPs lose their 95% fee share?+
This redirects protocol revenue, not all swap fees. The documented fee-only default remains 95% LPs / 5% protocol; the gauged default remains 100% of swap fees to voters, with configurable exceptions.
Sources
Does a Robinhood buyback reduce the RAM totalSupply counter?+
On Robinhood, BuybackModule transfers RAM to 0x000000000000000000000000000000000000dEaD. It does not call token burn() or decrement totalSupply. Track unusable RAM separately from the token supply counter and new issuance; neither price appreciation nor net deflation is guaranteed.
Sources
How can I verify a RAM market buy?+
Check the successful receipt, input-token transfer, swap output and RAM transfer to the dead address. The linked October 15 receipt shows 0.071744581440628082 WETH buying 2611.034882007904115227 RAM. Direct RAM input can skip a swap, so an event label alone is insufficient.
Sources
Is this the buyback policy on every Ramses chain?+
This update applies to Robinhood only. HyperEVM MEV handling and legacy r33 burials are separate mechanisms. Further Robinhood emissions changes are planned, not established as live. The Sarcophagus is a historical Robinhood mechanism, not the current revenue destination there.
