What is a liquidity pool?

A smart contract holding a reserve of two tokens that traders swap against. Prices are set by the ratio in the pool rather than by an order book, which is what makes a decentralised exchange work without a matching engine.

Is appearing here an endorsement?

No, and this saver is explicit about that. Trending means volume, nothing more. A pool can trend because a token is being heavily promoted or manipulated just as easily as because it is genuinely interesting.

Yes. It comes from GeckoTerminal's public API, key-free. Nothing is invented or simulated, and if the source cannot be reached the saver reports that instead of drawing something plausible.

Does it cost anything or need an account?

No. Every screensaver here is free, runs in the browser and needs no sign-up. This one uses a public API that requires no key.

Trending Pools Screensaver

The Trending Pools screensaver shows the Ethereum liquidity pools with the most activity right now, each with its 24-hour volume, pooled liquidity and price move. It runs in the browser with nothing to install; press ESC to exit.

How the Trending Pools screensaver works

The saver reads GeckoTerminal's public API, key-free.

No account and no key: the request goes straight from your browser, or from this site's own refreshed copy of the feed where the source does not permit browser access.

Values are drawn on a canvas that resizes with the window, so it works on a laptop or a wall display.

If the source is unreachable the saver says so on screen rather than showing stale numbers as though they were current.

A worked example

Each row names a pool — a trading pair on a decentralised exchange — with the volume traded and liquidity pooled beneath, and the price and 24-hour change on the right. Unlike a centralised exchange, nobody approves these listings: anyone can create a pool for any pair, so the list includes tokens that did not exist yesterday.
