A stablecoin that maintains its peg through algorithmic mechanisms (mint/burn arbitrage, elastic supply) rather than being fully backed by reserves. Algorithmic stablecoins use smart contracts to expand or contract supply based on demand. The category carries significant risk after the UST/Luna collapse in 2022. On Solana, UXD Protocol attempted a delta-neutral algorithmic design.

A token pegged to a stable asset, typically the US dollar. Major stablecoins on Solana include USDC (Circle, natively minted), USDT (Tether), and UXD (algorithmic). Stablecoins are critical DeFi primitives used as trading pairs, lending collateral, and yield farming. USDC on Solana uses the SPL Token program with freeze authority retained by Circle.
An event where a stablecoin's market price deviates significantly from its intended peg (typically $1.00). Depegs can result from loss of confidence in reserves, algorithmic failure, liquidity crises, or smart contract exploits. Even temporary depegs cause cascading liquidations across DeFi as collateral values drop. Notable depegs include UST (total collapse), USDC (briefly during SVB crisis), and various algorithmic stablecoins.

Simultaneous, all-or-nothing completion of both legs of a trade (asset + cash) in a single transaction. Eliminates settlement risk. A Solana transaction either fully executes all instructions or reverts completely, making partial settlement impossible by construction.

A protocol that enables token swaps using algorithmic pricing against pooled liquidity instead of matching individual buyers and sellers. AMMs use mathematical formulas (typically constant product x*y=k) to determine prices based on the ratio of tokens in a liquidity pool. On Solana, major AMMs include Raydium, Orca, and Meteora.
An AMM design where liquidity providers concentrate their capital within specific price ranges instead of across the full 0-to-infinity range. CLMMs dramatically improve capital efficiency—LPs earn more fees per dollar deposited within their active range. If the price moves outside the range, the position becomes inactive. Orca Whirlpools and Raydium CLMM are leading implementations on Solana.
A smart-contract-held reserve of two or more tokens that enables trading via an AMM. Users deposit token pairs in specified ratios to become liquidity providers and earn trading fees. Pools are identified by their token pair and fee tier. Pool depth (total value locked) determines price impact for trades.
A token issued to liquidity providers representing their proportional share of a pool's reserves and accrued fees. LP tokens can be burned to withdraw the underlying assets. The value of LP tokens changes as the pool's token ratios shift and fees accumulate. LP tokens are often stakeable in yield farming programs for additional rewards.
