Overview

Meteora is a Solana DEX specializing in DLMM (Dynamic Liquidity Market Maker) pools. Unlike standard AMMs, DLMM concentrates liquidity into discrete price bins with fees that automatically adjust based on market volatility. During volatile periods, fees surge to capture more revenue for LPs. Meteora's pools are aggregated by Jupiter, and the platform has become a popular venue for token launches due to its anti-sniper protections. Meteora is best suited for experienced LPs who actively manage their positions.
