Yes — there are a few advanced blogs and research sites that go beyond “what is DeFi” and focus on how on-chain trading actually works for experienced users.

Strong advanced sources

  • Uniswap Labs Blog / Research
    • Great for AMM mechanics, MEV, routing, LP math, and protocol design.
  • Paradigm Research
    • Very high signal on on-chain market structure, MEV, order flow, AMMs, and execution.
  • Flashbots Blog
    • Best for MEV, transaction inclusion, bundles, private orderflow, and Ethereum trading mechanics.
  • 0x Blog / Research
    • Useful for aggregation, RFQ systems, DEX routing, and on-chain liquidity.
  • Chainlink Blog / Research
    • Sometimes covers oracle design, DeFi market structure, and liquidation mechanics.
  • Gauntlet
    • More risk-modeling oriented, but very good for protocol dynamics and liquidity behavior.
  • Delphi Digital Research
    • Often covers deep DeFi trading infrastructure and market structure analysis.
  • Blockworks Research
    • Good for higher-level DeFi market structure and protocol analysis, though not always purely on-chain trading-focused.
  • Aave / MakerDAO / Curve / Balancer governance forums and blogs
    • Best when you want protocol-native discussions about how markets and incentives work.

If you want “how on-chain trading works” specifically

Look for content on:

  • AMMs vs CLOBs
  • slippage and price impact
  • MEV and sandwich attacks
  • block building / transaction ordering
  • aggregators and routing
  • liquidity fragmentation
  • LP strategies and impermanent loss
  • liquidations and oracle design
  • private order flow / intent-based trading

Good search terms

Try searching these with site filters:

  • site:blog.paradigm.xyz AMM
  • site:flashbots.net MEV trading
  • site:uniswap.org research slippage
  • site:0x.org blog routing
  • site:gauntlet.xyz DeFi market structure

If you want, I can also give you:

  1. a curated reading list by topic (MEV, AMMs, order flow, LP strategy), or
  2. the best Twitter/X accounts and newsletters for advanced on-chain trading.
