Raydium has maintained its numbers relatively well.

On Monday it exceeded the trading volume of last Monday for that same day one week earlier.

Raydium’s core contributor is a pseudonym. Stendhal You can tell them by clicking on the link Decrypt The reason they’re not surprised is that all the previously migrated Pump.fun Tokens’ liquidity has been locked to Raydium.

Raydium also has a “deep liquidty” of tokens in “all asset class” that is not limited to the Solana Launchpad.

Stendhal stated that the technical abilities of Raydium are not being taken into consideration.

“We have been hearing for a while that it is easy to launch a ‘vanilla’ [automated market maker]. “I don’t believe that many people realize how important distribution is for volume,” he continued.

'Great success'

PumpSwap is still a long way from becoming the biggest decentralized exchange in Solana.

Raydium is the leader in Solana’s volume over the past 24 hour, with Meteora in second place at 31.56 % and Orca at 20.41 percent. 

However, Pump.fun’s main competitor is only in the fifth place with a daily volume of 5.74% on Solana. 

Stendhal continued, “It is too early to evaluate the impact of an additional player joining the landscape of spot markets with significant mindshare.” It is interesting that the major disruption expected by the market did not happen.

We will see the gap narrow if launchpad manages to create another meme of this magnitude. Fartcoin (FARTCOIN), whose market capitalization peaked above $2 billion. 

ROUTINE has risen to $19 million in the past weekend. This is making some traders believe that meme coins are worth investing again.

Cohen explained that the volume of coins on PumpSwap has been growing day by night. I anticipate this trend continuing as more coins move and create trading volumes.
