What Is a DEX?
A DEX is a decentralized exchange for peer-to-peer crypto trading. Learn about Raydium, Jupiter, and how DEXs work on Solana.
A DEX (Decentralized Exchange) is a platform that enables peer-to-peer cryptocurrency trading without a central intermediary. On Solana, major DEXs include Raydium, Jupiter (aggregator), Orca, and Meteora.
How DEXs Work
Unlike centralized exchanges (Coinbase, Binance), DEXs operate through smart contracts and liquidity pools. Anyone can trade any token that has a liquidity pool — no listing approval or KYC required.
Solana DEXs
