Discover Lifinity, a Solana-based DEX offering efficient crypto swaps with proactive market making, price oracles, and reduced impermanent loss.
About Lifinity
Lifinity is an oracle-based automated market maker (AMM) and swap interface on Solana. It’s built for traders who want deep liquidity and consistent pricing, and for token teams that need reliable market making. Instead of relying on arbitrage to pull pool prices back in line, Lifinity uses its own low-latency price oracle and a proactive rebalancing algorithm to quote trades near the true market price. The design focuses on high capital efficiency and minimizing—or even reversing—impermanent loss at the pool level.
Unlike most DEXs, external liquidity providers can’t add liquidity to Lifinity pools. Liquidity is protocol-owned (POL) and backs the LFNTY token. That choice simplifies the system, aligns incentives, and lets the team optimize fees and inventory across pairs without juggling many LP positions.
For users who want to participate in governance and fee sharing, Lifinity offers LFNTY (governance), veLFNTY (vote-escrowed with revenue share), and xLFNTY (a transferable SPL token representing a 4-year veLFNTY lock). Fee revenue is distributed primarily to veLFNTY lockers.
What makes Lifinity special?
Lifinity combines an oracle-driven AMM with POL and a token design that routes fees to long-term lockers.
Oracle as the primary price signal. Most AMMs let arbitrage set the price, which can generate IL. Lifinity flips this by quoting from an internal oracle and trading only when conditions are safe (updated this slot; tight confidence). That reduces reliance on external arbitrage and aims to convert what would be IL into market-making profit.
v2 “target base asset” logic. Lifinity v2 targets the originally deposited base-asset amount rather than a strict 50/50 at all times, rebalancing to 50/50 only when the price has moved by a set amount. This can be combined with borrowing/shorting perps to neutralize price risk at the pool level.
Closed LP, protocol-owned liquidity. By keeping pools closed and owning the liquidity, Lifinity can set fees per pool and adjust inventory across pairs without exposing retail LPs to complex IL dynamics. It also directly ties POL performance to LFNTY’s economics.
Services for token teams. Market Making as a Service (MMaaS) and Liquidity as a Service (LaaS) help projects with custom oracles spin up efficient liquidity. In MMaaS, projects provide the assets; in LaaS, Lifinity provides assets and takes price risk in exchange for compensation tied to volume.
NFT “Flares” flywheel. The 10,000-piece Flare collection seeded pools and routes ongoing royalties/veLFNTY proceeds into buybacks and reinvestment, with floor-bid support and a contingency buyback if the floor drops below 50% of mint (not used to date).
Pricing
Discover the pricing options available for Lifinity
Free
Swap fees: Fees are set per pool to maximize overall profitability. Optimal levels can change with market conditions and competitive liquidity. Check the active fee when preparing a swap.
Network fees: Standard Solana transaction fees apply (typically low, but variable during congestion).
LP deposits: Not applicable—pools are closed; liquidity is protocol-owned.
If you’re considering governance/fee participation, review the veLFNTY locking parameters (7 days up to 4 years) and revenue split before committing funds.
How to get started
You can use Lifinity immediately as a swap user, and optionally participate in governance and fee sharing.
1
Connect a Solana wallet
2 minutes
Easy
Open the Lifinity app and connect a wallet like Phantom or Solflare.
2
Prepare SOL for fees
2 minutes
Easy
Fund your wallet with a small amount of SOL to cover network fees.
3
Make a swap
2 minutes
Easy
Choose the token pair. Review the quoted price and fee for that pool (fees are configured per pool), then confirm the transaction.
4
(optional): Acquire LFNTY
2 minutes
Easy
If you plan to participate in governance/fee sharing, acquire LFNTY.
5
(optional): Lock to veLFNTY or use xLFNTY
2 minutes
Easy
Lock LFNTY (7 days to 4 years) to mint veLFNTY and become eligible for a share of protocol fee revenue. If you need transferability, convert 4-year veLFNTY ↔ xLFNTY at 1:1 (but xLFNTY must be converted back to veLFNTY to receive revenue).
Pro Tips
Tip 1
Compare quotes. Because fees vary by pool and Lifinity targets oracle prices, compare the final quote with other Solana DEX routes to ensure you’re getting the expected execution.
Tip 2
Know that LP is closed. Don’t waste time hunting for “Add Liquidity” on the app—Lifinity uses POL, not external LPs.
Tip 3
Understand the lock. veLFNTY unlocks linearly when you switch to the unlocking state; xLFNTY is transferable but must be converted back to veLFNTY to receive revenue. Plan horizons accordingly.
Frequently Asked Questions
Get answers to the most common questions about this tool
What is Lifinity?
Lifinity is the first oracle-based decentralized exchange (DEX) on the Solana blockchain, designed to improve capital efficiency and reduce impermanent loss.
How does Lifinity work?
Lifinity utilizes oracles to proactively adjust liquidity pools based on real-time data, enhancing capital efficiency and mitigating impermanent loss.
Can I provide liquidity to Lifinity pools?
No. All pools are closed to deposits. Liquidity is protocol-owned and backs LFNTY.
What risks does the oracle-based design address?
The DEX trades only after its oracle updates in the current slot and the confidence interval is narrow, which helps reduce front-running and stale-price execution.
What’s the difference between LFNTY, veLFNTY, and xLFNTY?
LFNTY is the governance token. Locking LFNTY mints veLFNTY (non-transferable) and grants fee share and voting power; lock length (7 days to 4 years) affects veLFNTY amount. xLFNTY tokenizes a 4-year lock and is transferable, but you must convert it back to veLFNTY to receive revenue.
