Raydium is a decentralized exchange (DEX) built on the Solana blockchain. It provides automated market making (AMM) and liquidity provision through its on-chain order book system. Unlike traditional DEXs, Raydium integrates directly with the Serum decentralized exchange, enabling shared liquidity and faster trade execution.

History

Raydium was launched in February 2021 by an anonymous team known collectively as "AlphaRay," "XRay," and other pseudonymous developers. Its creation aimed to address scalability and transaction speed issues common in Ethereum-based DEXs by leveraging Solana's high-performance blockchain.

Features

Automated market maker

Raydium uses an automated model where users can provide liquidity by depositing token pairs into liquidity pools. This allows for trustless trading and yield generation through fees earned from swaps.

RAY Token Initial Distribution

Order book integration

Raydium connects with Serum's on-chain order book, enabling users to access broader liquidity. This integration differentiates Raydium from typical AMM-based DEXs.

Yield farming

Liquidity providers can stake their LP tokens to earn RAY, the platform's native token, through various farming programs.

Staking

RAY holders can stake tokens directly on the platform for additional rewards, enhancing passive income opportunities.

Launchpad AcceleRaytor

RAY Token Projected Circulating Supply

Raydium's AcceleRaytor platform supports token launches for new blockchain projects, providing early investment opportunities for users.

Governance

Raydium follows a decentralized governance model through the RAY token. Holders can vote on platform updates, new liquidity pools, and key protocol changes. Governance decisions are implemented based on community voting results.
