Meteora (MET)USD

Meteora is a liquidity infrastructure protocol and decentralized exchange on the Solana blockchain. It provides dynamic and composable liquidity pools for traders, liquidity providers, and token launches within Solana's DeFi ecosystem. ## Pool architecture Meteora's core pool designs are dynamic liquidity market maker pools, dynamic automated market maker pools, and bonding-curve pools. All three are built on top of Solana's underlying proof-of-stake consensus rather than a separate consensus mechanism. ## Founding and launch The protocol's founding details and exact launch date are not clearly established in widely available public sources. ## MET token The native token trades under the ticker MET and is an SPL token on Solana. MET is used for governance voting on protocol decisions, staking to earn a share of protocol fees and rewards, and receiving distributions of fees generated by liquidity activity. Base transaction fees on Solana are paid in SOL, not MET. The MET token generation event took place on 23 October 2025. Approximately 480 million tokens, roughly 48 percent of total supply, entered circulation at launch. MET has a fixed maximum supply of one billion tokens, with the remainder locked and subject to vesting over several years. ## Function Meteora operates as a composable liquidity layer for Solana DeFi, supporting trading and token launch liquidity management through its specialized pool architecture.
