TWAP is Live on Velora: Buy or Sell Over Time With Lower Price Impact
Apr 15, 2026
Product
Big onchain trades can get expensive fast. Push too much size through at once and the market starts moving before you are done. Slippage picks up, execution gets worse, and a trade that looked fine a minute ago suddenly does not.
That is exactly what TWAP is meant to solve. It is now live on Velora, giving users a better way to buy or sell over time with less market impact, built-in price protection, MEV-aware execution, and auction-driven price improvement.
When TWAP makes sense
TWAP shines when execution matters more than being in immediately.
Maybe you are rotating out of a volatile token and do not want to slam the market. Maybe you are building a position over time and would rather avoid one oversized buy. It also fits treasury rebalancing, larger directional trades, and any situation where a cleaner average entry or exit matters.
Think about buying ETH with a six-figure USDC position over a few hours. Or unwinding a memecoin position gradually instead of trying to exit in one click. That is where TWAP starts to feel like the right tool.
Built for users and partners
TWAP is live in the Velora App for all users, and it is also available through the Velora Widget, so wallets, dApps, and other Web3 products can bring the same execution flow into their own experience.
It also works across EOAs, hardware wallets, and smart accounts. Better execution should not depend on one account model or one wallet setup.
What is a TWAP order in crypto?
TWAP stands for time-weighted average price.
A TWAP order takes one larger trade and breaks it into smaller pieces that execute across a set period of time. Instead of buying or selling everything at once, the order is spread out. The goal is simple: reduce slippage and lower the market impact of size.
In DeFi, that matters even more. Liquidity can be patchy, markets can move fast, and a single market order is not always the right instrument. TWAP gives users a more deliberate way to get in or out.
Why TWAP on Velora stands out
Buy or sell over time
TWAP on Velora works on both sides of the trade. Users can scale into a position over time or scale out of one the same way.
Price protection built in
Velora TWAP comes with built-in price protection, so users have more control if the market moves too far away from the execution they were aiming for.
MEV protection by design
Execution quality is not just about the number on the screen. It is also about what happens between submission and settlement. TWAP on Velora benefits from the same MEV-aware execution model behind Velora Delta.
Auction-driven price improvement
TWAP on Velora also taps into Velora’s auction system, where competitive execution can lead to better outcomes than a simple static route.
Broad wallet support
TWAP is built to work with the wallets people already use, including EOAs, smart accounts, and Ledger-supported hardware wallets.
Part of a bigger execution stack
TWAP now sits inside a broader execution stack on Velora, alongside native ETH swaps, limit orders, crosschain swaps, and intent-based trading through Delta.
For users, that means better execution across more situations. For partners, it means advanced trading flows without having to build the infrastructure from scratch.
Live now, with crosschain next.
