Update on Terra
Solana Ecosystem projects are currently evaluating a good path to provide the Terra 2.0 airdrop to impacted users for wrapped UST and LUNA holders. The Orca team will continue to update the community on next steps when available.
Deepsea Insights
With every Rotation, there’s always something interesting going on in the Orca ecosystem!
This week, we’ve noticed a significant lack of liquidity in the Avalanche (AVAX/USDC) Whirlpool, despite the prominence of Avalanche in the broader ocean of digital assets…
If a brave Shark dives into this Whirlpool and provides liquidity competitively, they stand the opportunity to earn a feast in trading fees.
About Orca
Orca is the easiest way to exchange cryptocurrency on the Solana blockchain. There, you can exchange tokens with minimal transaction fees and lower latency than any DEX on Ethereum, all while knowing that you’re getting a fair price. Additionally, users may provide liquidity to a trading pool to earn a share of trading fees.
