Jupiter

Jupiter is a team and interface for aggregated swaps on the Solana blockchain. The brand's products are combined under one name.

What it does

Jupiter works as a decentralized exchange interface: instead of trading against a single pool, it looks across available liquidity sources on Solana and presents a route for the swap. The network is Solana, so users need a compatible wallet and a balance of the network's tokens for transaction costs.

Model

As a DEX interface it is non-custodial in the usual sense: the user signs transactions from their own wallet rather than depositing funds with the operator. This differs from centralized exchanges and from OTC brokers, with no account balance held by a company, no fiat on-ramp in the description, and no customer support relationship comparable to a regulated trading venue.

What to check

The description does not list supported tokens, fees, limits, the legal entity or any licensing, so none should be assumed. Users should examine the quote, price impact and route details shown before signing, and should be aware that smart-contract and market risks apply to every swap on a decentralized platform.
