Original Article Authors: TATO, azsui
Original Article Translation: Tim, PANews
PANews Editor's Note: PANews Flash on November 3 — HumidiFi's 30-day trading volume surpassed Meteora and Raydium, leading the Solana DEX market. Most of the market is unfamiliar with HumidiFi, and the project's official Twitter account has only 12,000 followers. For this "invisible champion," PANews has organized and translated the relevant content of authors TATO and azsui, including an introduction to the HumidiFi project and the upcoming ICO event.
Body:
What Is Prop AMM? And What Is HumidiFi?
Traditional Automated Market Maker (AMM):
• Allows any user to provide liquidity→earn trading fees
• Uses a passive pricing mechanism (x*y=k constant product formula)
• Requires TVL to achieve deep liquidity
• Liquidity Providers (LPs) face impermanent loss risk
Professional Market Maker Automated Market Maker (Prop AMM):
• All liquidity provided by professional market makers
• Pricing strategy continuously updated and independent of user trading behavior
• Algorithm actively manages inventory like a centralized exchange market maker
• No public liquidity providers (LPs) = retail users do not bear impermanent loss
Core Features of HumidiFi:
• Rapid quote updates, performing multiple repricings per second
• Private order flow mechanism reduces volatility and front-running risk
• Achieves capital efficiency by precisely concentrating liquidity in the highest-demand areas
• Operates entirely on-chain with an algorithm
• Accessible only through the Jupiter route
This can be understood as the on-chain version of Citadel Securities, a fully blockchain-native and permissionless market maker solution.


HumidiFi Achievements
Trading Volume Leadership
• Achieved approximately $1 trillion in total trading volume within 5 months
• Accounted for 35% of the total DEX trading volume on the Solana blockchain
• Daily trading volume consistently ranged from $10 billion to $190 billion
• Last month's trading volume reached $340 billion (surpassing the total of Raydium and Meteora)
Execution Quality
• Narrower spread for SOL/USDC compared to Binance
• More competitive quotes → lower slippage, close to minimal price impact
• 99.7% fill rate (almost zero trade failures)
Capital Efficiency Marvel
• Processed $8.19 billion in daily trading volume with only $5.3 million TVL
• Achieved 154x capital efficiency (compared to around 1x for traditional AMMs)
• Oracle updates require only 143 computation units (approximately 1000x lighter than regular swaps)
The result? Users get better prices, without even needing to know that HumidiFi is behind the operation.


Why Choose HumidiFi?
Technological Superiority
• Ultra-lightweight oracle updates require only 143 computation units
• Sub-Millisecond Price Refresh (Competitors take 15-30 seconds)
• Tight liquidity around oracle-based price aggregation = Ultimate capital efficiency
Jupiter Ecosystem Integration Advantage
• Jupiter processes 80%+ of Solana's swap volume
• HumidiFi captures 54.6% of Jupiter's professional market maker route
• Better prices → More routing options → Higher trading volume → Price edge amplification (Flywheel Effect)
Stealth Advantage
• No front-end interface
• Private order flow reduces MEV attack risk
• Anonymous operation = Reduced regulatory target risk
First-Mover Scale Effect
While competitors aim for millions, HumidiFi achieves a billion-asset breakthrough directly. In the DeFi market, liquidity attracts liquidity, and they have seized the initiative.


The Future is Here: HumidiFi Will Lead Solana DeFi Development
In short, it always gives you the best quote. For users, this is our core need.
HumidiFi will launch its governance and utility token $WET on Jupiter's latest DTF Launchpad in November (specific date to be determined).
This sale will be conducted at a fixed price and will consist of three stages.
· Whitelist Stage
· $JUP Staker Stage
· Public Sale Stage
The key is that the $WET token has not received any investment from venture capital firms.
This means that if venture capital firms wish to purchase, they must participate in the ICO subscription or purchase from the secondary market after the token is publicly listed.
After the sale, $WET will immediately be available for trading in the liquidity pool on the Meteora platform.

Conclusion
HumidiFi is a professional AMM protocol, accounting for over 50% of total DEX trading volume.
$WET will be the first ICO project on the Jupiter DTF Launchpad platform.
$JUP stakers will be able to participate in this ICO sale.
