Using borrowed funds to amplify trading exposure beyond deposited capital. In perps, 10x leverage means $100 collateral controls a $1,000 position. Gains and losses are multiplied proportionally. If losses approach the collateral amount, the position is liquidated. Higher leverage increases both potential returns and liquidation risk.

Derivatives contracts that track an asset's price without expiration, enabling leveraged long/short positions. On Solana, Drift Protocol and Jupiter Perps are the leading perps platforms. Traders deposit collateral and open positions at up to 10-100x leverage. Funding rates keep the contract price aligned with the spot price.
The collateral deposited to maintain a leveraged position. Initial margin is the minimum to open a position; maintenance margin is the minimum to keep it open. If the margin ratio drops below maintenance due to unrealized losses, the position faces liquidation. Margin can be cross (shared across positions) or isolated (per-position).
The process of repaying a borrower's debt by selling their collateral when their position's LTV exceeds the liquidation threshold. Liquidators (typically bots) repay a portion of the debt and receive the collateral at a discount (liquidation bonus, typically 5-10%). Liquidation keeps lending protocols solvent. On Solana, liquidation bots compete via Jito bundles.

A platform that facilitates new token launches by providing infrastructure for initial token sales, price discovery, and liquidity bootstrapping. On Solana, launchpads include Jupiter LFG (community-voted launches), Raydium AcceleRaytor, and Pump.fun (bonding curve model). Launchpads typically handle token distribution, initial DEX liquidity provision, and anti-bot measures for fair participation.

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.
