Jupiter is a **DeFi (decentralized finance)** project built on the **Solana** blockchain and is known as one of the largest protocols in the ecosystem. This platform functions as a **DEX aggregator (Decentralized Exchange)** that pools liquidity from various decentralized exchanges so users can get the best swap prices when exchanging cryptocurrencies. Jupiter has evolved from a simple swap tool into a “DeFi superapp” with features such as perpetual futures trading, limit orders, lending, token launches, and community governance through the **JUP** token. The JUP token plays a role in governance and network incentives, giving holders voting rights on important platform decisions. Jupiter has become a key pillar in Solana DeFi thanks to its high speed, low costs, and a continuously growing ecosystem.
