Lucas Bruder, founder and CEO of Jito, announced the upcoming launch of JTX, a new prosumer trading terminal built on Solana. JTX aims to provide a user-friendly experience with advanced order types, similar to centralized exchanges, to attract a broader range of traders to the Solana ecosystem.
“JTX is a prosumer trading terminal. And so we feel like there's a piece of the market that's missing where... Solana execution has gotten really good, but a lot of the tools that exist today are kind of more on the meme coin side of things. And so we're really targeting this prosumer audience.”
“The experience that's most equivalent to would be like a centralized exchange. And so I would say very clean user experience. You can see all the assets that are available to trade. Very simple order box.”
“I would say the centralized exchanges are our main competition. So, you know, there's, you can, you can look at the pie as like, I want to take market share from others, or I want to grow it. And I think we have been in the business. And one of the reasons why we're so successful is like, we are trying to take market share from everyone else, you know, centralized exchanges and like NASDAQ and New York Stock Exchange and things like that.”
