Sushi, often called SushiSwap, is a popular decentralized finance (DeFi) platform best known for its Automated Market Maker (AMM). It was created in 2020 as a community-driven fork of Uniswap with a unique twist: Sushi integrated additional staking features and governance options via its native token, SUSHI. Over time, it has expanded into a multifaceted ecosystem offering various DeFi products such as an aggregator, an AMM, and token staking mechanisms.
