Jito's TipRouter Launch: Optimizing Solana's Validator Network
Jito, a leading liquid staking protocol on Solana, has launched TipRouter to optimize validator efficiency and MEV rewards. Jito's network is doing great, with $261 million in fees and revenue year-to-date exceeding Solana. Its staking product is deeply integrated into Solana's DeFi network, enhancing lending and yield farming protocols, thus solidifying Jito's place in Solana's economic infrastructure.
New Tokenomics: Buybacks, Bartering, and Enhanced JTO Utility
Jito is also developing fresh tokenomics proposals, including a token buyback system based on protocol fees, potentially going into "bartering" with other DAOs for long-term incentives and reduced token supply. Inspired by Curve, Jito is considering a model where users lock money in JTO-paired pools to decide on DAO fee stream investments, generating extra utility for JTO
Whale Activity: Signals of Confidence in Jito
Recent whale activity on Jito (JTO) tokens includes a massive withdrawal of $12.37 million worth of JTO, which was staked, indicating high confidence in the Jito network and possibly decreasing circulating supply, affecting JTO's price 1. A whale also withdrew $12.37 million in SOL, possibly attributed to Jito's activities on the Solana blockchain, highlighting the interconnectivity of the Solana and Jito ecosystems.
