Prominent DEX Jupiter has acquired Rain.fi, a platform designed to scale the credit market on Solana, to enhance its ecosystem and boost on-chain credit market growth, according to a Thursday announcement.

Rain.fi noted that the Rain app will keep running for several months as the team prepares for a smooth, gradual sunset and migrates key features under the Jupiter umbrella. stJUP deposits have ended, and users are advised to start unstaking from Liquid, though rewards will continue until the next ASR cycle. stCOLLAT staking is unaffected.

The deal arrives at a time when Jupiter’s JUP token is extending its decline amid a market-wide downturn that has pushed Bitcoin down to $90,000.

JUP was changing hands at around $0.21 at press time, hovering near record lows, per CoinGecko data.
