Step Finance, a trading dashboard born out of the Solana hackathon, is aggregating Solana’s decentralized exchanges (DEXs), including automated market maker Raydium, SerumDex and Orca, to give traders faster access to price information.

  • Traders using Step Dashboard will have access to $845 million of liquidity and be able to execute trades quickly at low fees, Step Finance said.
  • “There is currently no single dashboard offering users a simple single entry point to manage their portfolio on Solana,” Step Finance co-founder George Harrap said.
