Alright, imagine a company wants to help people trade its stock more easily without needing a big bank or broker to manage every buy and sell. Instead, they use an Automated Market Maker (AMM), which acts like a digital vending machine that automatically adjusts prices and manages stock availability.

Here’s how it works in simple terms:

1. Stock Pool Setup: The company (let’s call it "TechCo") creates a liquidity pool for its stock. This is like a pool of TechCo stock and cash, so people can trade TechCo stock in and out of the pool without needing another person on the other side of the trade. If someone wants to buy TechCo stock, they put cash into the pool and take stock out. If they want to sell, they put stock into the pool and take cash out.

2. Automated Price Adjustments: Instead of someone setting the price, the AMM automatically adjusts it based on a formula, often the constant product formula. It works like this: the more people buy TechCo stock, the less stock is left in the pool and the higher the price goes. Conversely, if people keep selling, the pool has more stock than cash, and the price lowers. This keeps the stock price balanced with supply and demand.

3. Why the Company Would Do This: By using an AMM, TechCo can make sure that its stock is always available for trading, and it doesn’t need to rely on a traditional stock exchange. It’s a way to let people buy or sell quickly, without delays or the need for a specific buyer or seller at any moment. This is useful for smaller or newer companies that want to create a steady market for their stock.

4. Getting Paid to Provide Stock and Cash: To keep this pool running, TechCo might also allow investors to add their own TechCo stock and cash to the pool. In return, these investors (called liquidity providers) earn a tiny fee on each trade that happens in the pool. It’s like earning a small commission whenever someone buys or sells stock.

5. Risks of Price Changes: However, if TechCo’s stock price changes a lot in other markets, liquidity providers could end up with fewer assets than if they’d simply held their stock separately. This risk, known as impermanent loss, is something investors in the pool need to consider.

By using an AMM, TechCo makes it easier for people to trade their stock while helping maintain its price stability. It’s a new, automated way for companies to support their stock’s availability, making it more like a self-serve trading machine than a traditional exchange.
