Acting as a key player within the Serum decentralized exchange (DEX), Raydium leverages its first-mover advantage to facilitate the integration of new and existing projects into the thriving Solana ecosystem.

• Launchpad Functionality: Raydium serves as a launchpad for emerging projects, helping them to expand and thrive within the Solana and Serum ecosystems.
