Solana’s Titan DEX Goes Live—Zero-Fee Trading & Smarter Routing

Titan, Solana’s first meta-DEX aggregator, has officially launched its beta platform. A select group of users will have exclusive early access.
According to a March 23 press release, unlike traditional DEX aggregators, which pull liquidity directly from decentralized exchanges, Titan functions as a layer above them. It combines quotes from multiple aggregators, such as Jupiter and DFlow. This approach ensures traders receive the most competitive trade execution at zero cost.
By integrating all available on-chain liquidity and leveraging advanced trading algorithms, Titan aims to enhance efficiency and cost-effectiveness for DeFi users and optimize transactions beyond existing solutions.
Talos Algorithm Enhances Trade Execution
Titan has developed a proprietary routing algorithm called Talos, which the company claims outperforms competitors in 80% of trading scenarios. Talos scans more liquidity sources than existing solutions and optimizes trade routes with high precision.
The algorithm works by allocating capital at a detailed level, ensuring efficient execution across multiple sources. According to Titan, this method offers better pricing and reduces costs for traders compared to other options currently available in the Solana ecosystem.
Addressing Slippage Issues in On-Chain Swaps
A frequent issue in decentralized trading is quote slippage. When users get a price estimate, it might fluctuate before the deal is finalized. On Solana, transactions require about 10 seconds, or 25 blocks, for processing, which may result in price variations.
Titan aims to solve this issue by continuously re-evaluating and updating quotes in real-time. This ensures traders always see the most accurate pricing before executing a transaction.
Chris Chung, CEO and co-founder of Titan, highlighted the urgent need for better trade execution in crypto. “Unlike traditional markets, crypto trading suffers from slow order placement. With transaction signing taking 10-12 seconds, it creates a major lag—giving MEV bots a window to exploit inefficiencies. Titan is here to change that by upgrading the infrastructure and closing this gap once and for all.”
Titan’s Funding and Solana’s Market Growth
Titan raised $3.5 million in a pre-seed funding round in September 2024. The round was backed by Round13 Digital Asset Fund and Beluga Labs, supporting the development of its trading platform. Moreover, Solana continues to experience increased adoption, with over 11 million wallets now holding SOL, according to data by Ali.
Titan’s launch aligns with Solana’s ongoing DeFi surge. Data from DeFiLlama shows Solana’s stablecoin market cap has soared to $12.36 billion—tripling since December 2024. Meanwhile, DEX trading on Solana hit $258 billion in January before dipping to $105 billion in February.
Despite fluctuations in SOL’s price, analysts suggest that increasing institutional interest could drive further adoption and trading activity in the coming months.
