Jupiter DEX on Solana Secures Majority Ownership of Moonshot

Jupiter DEX bought Moonshot, a viral crypto app for memecoins like “TRUMP,” while burning tokens and boosting JUP prices—big hype for Solana DeFi!

Solana’s top DeFi player, Jupiter DEX, just made waves by snagging a majority stake in Moonshot, the self-custody app that lets you snag memecoins like a pro—yes, even with Apple Pay. The tea? Moonshot went viral after Donald Trump’s “TRUMP” token dropped on Jan 18, skyrocketing to the #1 spot in the U.S. App Store’s finance category. With nearly $400M in trading volume and a whopping 1M daily users by Jan 20, it’s safe to say Moonshot is a vibe.

Jupiter’s move isn’t just about flexing. Announced by their founder “Meow” (yes, really) at Catstanbul, Turkey’s first-ever Jupiter community event, this acquisition levels up the Solana DeFi game big time. They’re not stopping there, though. Jupiter also dropped another banger—burning $3B worth of JUP tokens and pledging 50% of trading fee income to buy back JUP. Naturally, this sent JUP’s price skyrocketing to $1.27, and the community is hyped.

This comes hot off their recent airdrop of 700K JUP tokens to 2M+ users. Jupiter and Moonshot are clearly out here trying to make Solana DeFi the main character, and honestly? It’s working. Big moves, big energy—Solana’s DeFi space is thriving!

Jupiter Launches Voting for Huge ‘Jupuary’ Airdrops on Solana

Jupiter’s “Jupuary” airdrop on Solana is about to begin. 700M $JUP tokens are already up for vote as we write. The main objective is to encourage decentralization and the overall community involvement. A significant precedent for DeFi governance will be set after the first round goes live if the vote reaches 70%. This November is the last day to vote.

Jupiter, the decentralized exchange on Solana, just kicked off voting for its massive “Jupuary” airdrop. Its set to give away 700M $JUP tokens in two rounds. The goal is to get the community involved and make governance more decentralized. To move forward, the vote needs at least 70% approval from the community.

Voting is happening right now (Nov 25–29) and is already making history. This is the first-ever DAO vote with live and verified feedback from real voters. If it hits the 70% mark, one round of token distribution will go live, with more rounds depending on future votes.

The whole point of this is to give the community more power and make $JUP a key player in DeFi governance. While this isn’t Jupiter’s first airdrop, it’s by far the biggest. Everyone’s watching to see if this sets a new bar for large-scale token drops.

Following a huge $1.4 billion worth of $JUP tokens up for grabs now, and the vote still ongoing, this endeavor may be setting a new benchmark for decentralized enterprises. If successful, it will undoubtedly strengthen $JUP’s position in the Solana ecosystem and increase overall community involvement.
