About Raydium
What Is Raydium?
Raydium is a Solana-based decentralized exchange (DEX) with an automated market maker (AMM) model. Users can swap, trade, and become liquidity providers. The exchange provides liquidity to Serum, another Solana-based exchange with a central order book model. Therefore, Raydium users can access the order flow and liquidity of Serum and vice versa. Furthermore, the platform claims to offer the best price swap feature that automatically determines whether a token swap is cheaper if routed through the liquidity pool or the Serum order book.
Users can also add liquidity and receive LP tokens, which represent a proportional share of the pooled assets. Every time a token swap is performed, LP token holders receive 0.22% of the trade volume. It is distributed according to the proportion of liquidity provided to the pool. There is also an option to create permissionless pools, which will also place orders on the Serum order book. This way, users can add any token pairs they wish and earn a share of the trading fees.
The native RAY token can be staked to earn additional tokens. It also serves as a governance token that can be used to vote on improvement proposals and fee structures on the exchange.
