Aqua gives you two position shapes, and they’re built for different kinds of pairs: Straight concentrates your liquidity in a price band you choose. It only quotes while the pair trades inside that band, which is how volatile pairs are often set up. Curved spreads your liquidity smoothly across prices instead of one band. LPs often use this approach for pairs that hover around a set value, like stablecoins or pegged assets. Two shapes, two jobs. Which fits comes down to the pair.(1inch)
