SOL Staking

Some launchpads allow other platforms to launch tokens on it, allowing customizability but reusing the general bonding curve framework.
- LaunchLab contains token launches from platforms such as letsbonk.fun, cook.meme, Pumpkin.fun, and others.
- The majority of Meteora token launches are from Believe.app

**Pair Categories**
We define a set of trading pair categories below. The classification of pair categories is determined in a top-to-bottom manner.

-SOL-Stablecoin: the trade involves SOL and a stablecoin.
-Bitcoin: the trade involves a Bitcoin-pegged asset. Some notable trading pairs are BTC-ETH, BTC-USD, and BTC-BTC (for example, cbBTC-WBTC).
-Stablecoin Swaps: the trade has both the bought token and sold token as stablecoins.
-LST Swaps: the trade involves a Liquid Staking token.
-Tokenized Assets: the trade involves a tokenized asset. Examples include Gold, Equities, and Treasuries.
-Indexed Assets: the trade involves an indexed asset. Examples include leveraged crypto tokens, portfolio of crypto tokens, and LP tokens.
-Project Tokens: the trade involves tokens that are issued by projects. An example would be governance tokens and L1 tokens (not including BTC or ETH).
-AI Agents: the trade involves an AI agent token.
-Memes: The remaining volume from known memecoins as well as unclassified tokens.

**DEXs**
The exchange that the trade takes place on.

**Trade Source**
Indicates where the trade was sourced from. We define five major categories:
* Direct: Trade is traded directly with the exchange
* DEX Aggregator: Trade is routed through an aggregator first
* Trading Platform: Trade takes place on a trading platform such as Photon, Phantom, Axiom, etc.
* MEV Bot: Trade is from an identified MEV bot program on Solana.
* Other: Programs that are unidentified. Most likely an MEV bot.

There are some instances where a trade can be from a trading platform and routed thru an aggregator. To avoid double-counting this volume, we prioritize Trading Platforms in this case. As a result, the total DEX aggregator volume in this chart may slightly differ from other charts.



Solana: DEX Volume

**DeFi Tokens**: Sectors include DEX, DEX Aggregator, Lending, Staking, Yield Manager, etc.

**Consumer Tokens**: includes tokens like PENGU, GMT (formerly STEPN), etc.

**DePIN Tokens**: includes tokens like GRASS, RNDR, HNT, ORE, etc.

Solana: Project Token Volume by DEX

Solana: Bitcoin Volume by Pair Type

Solana: SOL-Stablecoin Volume by Pair

Solana: Meme Volume by DEX

Considers total memecoin volume from where the token was launched on.
- For example, Pump.fun considers the volume of all Pump.fun tokens on every DEX (not just Pump). LaunchLab consists of the total volume of all tokens launched on LaunchLab.

Some launchpads allow other platforms to launch tokens on it, allowing customizability but reusing the general bonding curve framework.
- LaunchLab contains token launches from platforms such as letsbonk.fun, cook.meme, Pumpkin.fun, and others.
- The majority of Meteora token launches are from Believe.app

Aggregate memecoin volume from where the token was minted on.

Solana: Memecoin Volume by Token Origination

Calculated by applying this formula for the top traded tokens:
(Buy Volume + Sell Volume)/(2*Total Volume)

Includes both buy and sell volume for each token.

Ordering Fees as a % of Spot DEX Volume measure the willingness of traders to pay for ordering specification or ordering priority, relative to the total spot market volume. These fees are paid by traders to secure their ability to capture arbitrage profits across DEX-DEX and CEX-DEX markets, and a smaller portion—generally estimated to be in the low-to-mid single digits—funds front-running and sandwiching attacks. 

This metric also reflects the pricing power of block builders and blockspace, as higher fees indicate traders' willingness to pay significant premiums for prioritized execution within blocks. It captures the total cost paid by arbitrageurs to execute their strategies, providing insight into the economic barriers to entry for market participants and the efficiency of arbitrage activity on that chain. By framing these fees in terms of volume, the metric also helps contextualize the expected profitability of similar actors in less-developed ecosystems, where weaker MEV capture or lower ordering fees may signal greater arbitrage opportunities and potential for ecosystem growth.

Ordering Fees include Priority Fees and Jito Tips

Solana: Ordering Fees as Share of Spot DEX Volume

Total volume originating from trading platforms.

Solana: Trading Platform Volume

To avoid double-counting DEX aggregator volume, we only include one DEX aggregator per DEX swap.

As a result, this may underreport the amount of volume through Meta DEX Aggregators like Titan. For example, a trade that flows from Titan -> Jupiter -> DEX Pool will be reported as Jupiter since it's closest to the DEX trade.

We only include one DEX aggregator per DEX swap.

Wallets segmented by lifetime trade volume.

Solana: DEX Activity by Wallet Segment

Number of trades based on dollar amount of the trade.

Solana: Trade Size

Percentage of volume that is sourced from DEX aggregators.

Solana: DEX Aggregator Volume Concentration by DEX

We define trading platform as any Telegram/Trading bot + Wallets. Examples include: Axiom, Photon, Banana Gun, Phantom, etc.

**Bonding Curve Pools** tab represents the % of volume from trading platforms on bonding curve pools. 
-For Pump, this represents their Pump.fun product. 
-For Raydium, this represents their LaunchLab product
