Revenue means you can start backing into numbers. Which many don’t want obviously 🤣

gm Solana 🌞 Check out some heat coming out of our SOL-PERP market: - 24h Volume: $223.27M - Open interest: $205.38M - Avg Fill vs Oracle difference: ~3.9 bps And, all this activity... - Without zero fees - any incentive/rewards program. Trade where the action’s at:…
Some people here paid a f*** tonne of fees ☠️
YTD solana perp volume evolution 👀 purple hungry
I don't understand why people think zero trading fees = incentives. There are ways to generate alternate sources of fees (e.g PFOF, spreads, AMM positions) that don't involve a transaction fee with the user. Arguably a trading fees at POS represents a speed bump and barrier to…
the introduction of Drift Institutional was a juicy one it's clear that @DriftProtocol making 10x in volumes lately proves that Almost $1B in trading every day chat are you fading?
Drift volume has 10x’d over the past few weeks. We’re regularly clearing over $800M a day, with open interest >2x to $400M, making us the second largest perp DEX by OI. What’s been happening under the hood? 1. Our protocol-owned AMM is now highly competitive. There’s been a…
An under appreciated fact is that @DriftProtocol hit its latest ATH milestones with zero incentives in place.
.@jito_sol x @DriftProtocol is going to be the winning narrative. Programmed.
"With Plugins, a Solana perps DEX could implement taker speed bumps, for instance, a feature that has been important in Hyperliquid’s success." @jito_sol is coming for @HyperliquidX blockworks.co/news/jito-upgr…
Check avg price gud avg price "Smart" acquisitions doing their thing
We embrace the hate and use that to power our ships 🚢 The most satisfying rally is a hated one.
.@_ryanrconnor makes the case for a contrarian bet on Drift relative to Hyperliquid. If Solana becomes useful for market makers and the chain can handle Hyperliquid style throughput it makes for some interesting competition. What do we think?
Jito 🤝 Drift will be integrated on BAM The on-chain trading experience on Solana is about to ramp up with BAM going live! This is how Solana wins.
