RateX Launches on Solana: World’s First Leveraged Yield Exchange teaming up with Jupiter and Jito

Published

on

RateX Goes Live on Solana Mainnet on 17th Oct 2024. RateX, the world’s first leveraged yield exchange, has officially launched on the Solana mainnet, marking a significant milestone in the decentralized finance (DeFi) space. Built with innovation at its core, RateX enables users to trade synthetic yield tokens (YT) of various yield-bearing assets (YBA) with leverage of up to 10x. This powerful platform introduces groundbreaking solutions to maximize capital efficiency, while addressing common DeFi challenges, such as impermanent loss and limited yield-trading opportunities.

RateX, a proud recipient of a grant from the Solana Foundation and the first-place winner of the Solana Renaissance Hackathon (MCM), aims to push the boundaries of decentralized finance. The platform’s unique value proposition comes from its use of synthetic yield tokens, which track the yield of different assets and allow traders to take positions with leveraged exposure. This gives users more flexibility and opportunities to capitalize on fluctuations in yields, empowering them to generate higher returns on their investments.

The introduction of RateX also brings a cutting-edge Time-Decaying Automated Market Maker (AMM) to the forefront. This AMM is designed to improve capital efficiency while reducing the risks traditionally associated with liquidity provisioning, particularly in expiring contracts. The mechanism minimizes the potential for impermanent loss—a common issue for liquidity providers (LPs) in volatile markets—and aims to eventually eliminate it altogether. As a result, RateX offers a more robust and rewarding environment for both traders and liquidity providers.

In addition to its leveraged yield trading capabilities, RateX caters to users looking for stability by providing fixed-yield options. These options allow users to lock in specific yields over a predetermined period, offering more predictable returns compared to the highly variable DeFi market. Whether traders are seeking high-risk, high-reward opportunities or more stable, consistent gains, RateX provides an ecosystem that accommodates diverse trading strategies.

Key Partnerships with Jupiter and Jito

Further bolstering its platform, RateX has announced strategic partnerships with two prominent players in the Solana ecosystem—Jupiter and Jito. These partnerships not only strengthen RateX’s technological infrastructure but also extend its reach within the DeFi and staking communities.

Jupiter, one of the largest decentralized trading platforms on Solana, is known for its high liquidity and strong governance framework. With an extensive community and a focus on enabling smooth cross-asset trading, Jupiter plays a pivotal role in bringing liquidity to the RateX platform. This partnership ensures that RateX users will benefit from deep liquidity pools, efficient price discovery, and seamless execution of trades. Jupiter’s active governance community also opens the door for collaborative development efforts, allowing RateX to evolve in line with community-driven innovations.

On the staking side, RateX has joined forces with Jito, the leading liquid staking platform on Solana. Jito’s expertise in liquid staking will enhance RateX’s offerings by providing users with access to staking-derived yield-bearing assets. By leveraging Jito’s technology, RateX can integrate liquid staking into its synthetic yield ecosystem, offering even more diverse options for traders to earn yield. With this partnership, users can expect enhanced staking efficiency, better capital utilization, and a broader range of yield-bearing assets available for leveraged trading.

A New Era for DeFi: RateX as a Pillar of Infrastructure

The launch of RateX comes at a time when the DeFi sector is evolving rapidly, and the demand for more sophisticated financial products is higher than ever. By pioneering leveraged yield trading and forming key partnerships with Jupiter and Jito, RateX is positioning itself as a crucial pillar of the Solana ecosystem and DeFi infrastructure at large. RateX’s mission is to redefine how yield movements are traded, making the entire process more efficient, transparent, and accessible to both seasoned traders and new entrants to the space.

As the world’s first leveraged yield exchange, RateX is primed to play a central role in shaping the next phase of decentralized finance, often referred to as the “next DeFi summer.” With its innovative platform, strong partnerships, and focus on capital efficiency, RateX is setting the stage for a new era of financial freedom and opportunities for DeFi enthusiasts worldwide.

TradeSta Launches “Collateral Back” Campaign: 50% collateral back on First Liquidation for Traders

Published

on

TradeSta, the next-gen decentralized perpetuals trading platform built on Avalanche c-chain, is giving traders a second chance — literally.

Starting Tuesday 20th May 2025, the platform has launched its TradeStaCollateralBack campaign, offering a 50% refund on collateral (up to $25 USDC) for users who get liquidated on their first trade during the promotional period.

This bold new initiative is part of TradeSta’s mission to make high-leverage DeFi trading more accessible, transparent, and forgiving for newcomers and seasoned traders alike.

The campaign runs from Tuesday, May 20 through Tuesday, June 3, 2025 at 23:59 UTC.

“At TradeSta, we’re building more than just another DEX — we’re creating a trading experience that’s fast, fair, and actually puts the user first,” said Kieron Cartledge, Founder and CEO of TradeSta. “This campaign is our way of saying: it’s okay to take a swing — we’ve got your back if you miss.”

🔥 Here’s How It Works

Eligible users who open a position and get liquidated during the campaign will receive 50% of their collateral back, up to $25 USDC — no strings attached.

To qualify:

  • Minimum position size: $10 USDC
  • Minimum leverage: 10x
  • Must be the first loss from that wallet during the campaign
  • Refunds are processed in USDC on Avalanche C-Chain
  • Payouts sent within 72 working hours of liquidation

Whether you’re trading BTC, ETH, AVAX, gold, oil, or even RWAs, TradeSta gives you full control from start to finish. No KYC, no signups, just pure onchain execution — with lightning-fast trades, real-time pricing via Pyth Network.

✨ Why This Matters

Trading with leverage can be intimidating, especially for new users exploring DeFi for the first time. TradeSta’s campaign reduces the fear factor by offering a real incentive to test the waters — without getting burned.

“It’s not about encouraging risk,” Cartledge added. “It’s about rewarding participation and showing the community that DeFi doesn’t have to be cold, complex, or unforgiving.”

🚀 About TradeSta

TradeSta is a self-custodial perpetuals trading platform that allows users to trade crypto, commodities, FX, and real-world assets with up to 100x leverage — all without giving up control of their funds. Built on Avalanche & powered by Pyth Network, TradeSta combines DeFi values with CEX-like performance.
