The Nova DEX on Solana.
Swap · Bridge · Pool · Stake · Earn

NovaDEX is a full-stack exchange protocol built on Solana. It combines token swapping, cross-chain bridging, concentrated liquidity pools, SOL staking, and yield rewards in a single non-custodial platform. NovaDEX is available at novadex-dex.com and empowers users with sub-second trade execution and near-zero fees.

Connect your Solana wallet (Phantom, Solflare, Backpack, or Ledger), select your input and output tokens, enter the amount, review the route and price impact, and click Swap. NovaDEX's smart router automatically finds the best price across all Solana AMMs. Transactions on NovaDEX confirm in under 400 milliseconds.

NovaDEX charges a base swap fee of just 0.04% on all token swaps — the lowest fee of any major DEX on Solana. Fee tiers for liquidity pools range from 0.01% for stable pairs to 0.25% for volatile pairs. All fees are distributed to liquidity providers and NVX stakers — zero protocol treasury cut.

Yes. NovaDEX has been audited by 5 independent security firms: Otter Security, Halborn, OtterSec + Neodyme, Trail of Bits, and Sec3. All programs are open-source and formally verified. The NovaDEX protocol has secured over $640M TVL without any security incidents. A $10M bug bounty is active.

NovaDEX supports all major Solana wallets: Phantom, Solflare, Backpack, Glow, Coin98, Trust Wallet, Ledger hardware wallet, and any wallet compatible with the Solana Wallet Adapter standard. Mobile users can connect via WalletConnect.

NovaDEX uses a Concentrated Liquidity Market Maker (CLMM) model. Instead of spreading liquidity across all prices, LPs choose a specific price range to concentrate their capital. This means higher fee earnings per dollar of liquidity provided — typically 5–10× more efficient than traditional AMMs. You can earn up to 31% APR in the top NovaDEX pools.

NVX is the native governance and reward token of NovaDEX. You earn NVX by trading on the NovaDEX platform (trading rewards), providing liquidity (LP rewards), referring users (referral rewards), and participating in governance. NVX can be staked for additional yield and locked as veNVX for boosted APY and voting power.

NovaDEX offers three staking products: (1) nSOL Liquid Staking — stake SOL and receive nSOL liquid staking tokens at 7.2% APY with instant unstaking. (2) NVX Vault — stake NVX tokens for 18.5% APY with a 14-day lock. (3) veNVX Governance — lock NVX for up to 4 years for 12.1% APY plus voting power and fee revenue share.

nSOL is NovaDEX's liquid staking token representing staked SOL. It appreciates in value relative to SOL as staking rewards accrue. Unlike native staked SOL, nSOL is fully liquid — you can use it as collateral on lending protocols, provide nSOL/SOL liquidity, bridge it cross-chain, or swap it back to SOL instantly at any time on novadex-dex.com.

NovaDEX's bridge uses Wormhole Guardian network as the base security layer, combined with NovaDEX's optimized routing for best rates. You can bridge SOL, USDC, USDT, wBTC, wETH and more between Solana, Ethereum, BNB Chain, Polygon, Arbitrum, Optimism, Base, and 5+ other networks. Bridge transfers typically complete in 10–20 minutes.

NovaDEX's Smart Order Routing (SOR) engine queries liquidity across all major Solana AMMs — including NovaDEX's own CLMM pools, Raydium, Orca, Meteora, and others — then splits and routes orders for optimal price execution. This aggregation means you always get better prices on NovaDEX than on any single AMM alone.

Yes. NovaDEX integrates with Jito's MEV-protection infrastructure on Solana, which routes transactions through a private mempool to prevent sandwich attacks and front-running. Combined with Solana's parallel transaction processing, NovaDEX offers strong MEV-resistance without sacrificing execution speed.

NovaDEX supports 400+ Solana tokens, including SOL, USDC, USDT, wBTC, wETH, JUP, BONK, NVX, PYTH, WIF, RAY, ORCA, mSOL, stSOL, nSOL, and many more. Any SPL token can be traded. New tokens are available as soon as their pool is created on NovaDEX — no permission required.

While Raydium and Orca are primarily AMMs and Jupiter is a swap aggregator, NovaDEX is a unified protocol combining aggregated swaps, CLMM pools, cross-chain bridging, liquid staking, and governance — all in one interface. NovaDEX aggregates across other DEXs including Raydium and Orca to ensure best prices, while offering unique native liquidity pools and the highest LP APRs on Solana.

Yes. NovaDEX supports on-chain limit orders for all token pairs. Set your desired price and the order executes automatically when the market reaches your target. Limit orders are non-custodial and can be cancelled at any time. They're powered by Solana's OpenBook order book integrated within NovaDEX's routing engine.

Yes. NovaDEX is fully responsive and works in any mobile browser. For the best mobile experience, use Phantom or Solflare's built-in browser on iOS or Android. NovaDEX also works seamlessly inside Backpack's integrated browser. Access NovaDEX at novadex-dex.com from any device.

veNVX (vote-escrowed NVX) is received when you lock NVX tokens for a chosen period (1 week to 4 years). The longer you lock, the more veNVX you receive. veNVX earns boosted APY (up to 2.5× base rates), protocol fee revenue share (50% of all fees), and voting power over pool emission allocations and NovaDEX governance proposals.

Solana processes blocks approximately every 400 milliseconds, making NovaDEX trades among the fastest available. Swap transactions on NovaDEX typically confirm within 1–3 blocks (0.4–1.2 seconds). This compares to 12–30 seconds for Ethereum DEXs and 3–5 seconds for BNB Chain DEXs. There's no mempool congestion on Solana.

Solana base network fees are approximately $0.00025 per transaction — making each NovaDEX swap cost a fraction of a cent in gas. Combined with NovaDEX's 0.04% trading fee, the total cost of a $1,000 swap on NovaDEX is approximately $0.40. novadex-dex.com offers the most competitive fee structure among Solana exchanges.

NovaDEX's referral program rewards you with 20% of the trading fees generated by users you refer, paid in real-time in NVX. There's no cap — top referrers earn thousands of dollars monthly. Generate your referral link from the Rewards tab once you connect your wallet on novadex-dex.com. Referral rewards are claimable at any time.

Navigate to the Pools tab on NovaDEX, select an existing pool or create a new one. Choose your price range (for concentrated liquidity) and deposit token amounts. Your LP position is represented as an NFT on Solana. You start earning fees and NVX rewards immediately with no lock-up required on novadex-dex.com.

Full documentation is available at docs.novadex.io. For technical support, join the NovaDEX Discord server or follow @NovaDEX_io on Twitter for announcements and updates. The main NovaDEX platform is available at novadex-dex.com.

Slippage tolerance is the maximum price change you accept between submitting and executing your trade. The NovaDEX default is 0.5%, which works well for most liquid pairs like SOL/USDC. For less liquid tokens, set slippage to 1–3%. For stablecoin swaps (USDC/USDT), you can set it as low as 0.1% on novadex-dex.com.

Yes. NovaDEX is a fully on-chain, non-custodial protocol with no central intermediary. Programs are deployed on Solana mainnet, are open-source on GitHub, and have no admin upgrade keys. Protocol governance is entirely controlled by veNVX holders. The NovaDEX team cannot access user funds or modify programs without a governance vote and 48-hour timelock.

NovaDEX distributes 40% of all protocol fee revenue as LP rewards on top of standard trading fees. Rewards are denominated in NVX and accrue every epoch (12 hours). Additionally, select high-priority pools receive extra NVX emissions voted on by governance. You can claim rewards anytime from the Rewards tab on novadex-dex.com.

The NovaDEX bridge supports 12+ networks including Solana, Ethereum, BNB Chain, Polygon, Arbitrum, Optimism, Base, Avalanche, Fantom, Sui, Aptos, and NEAR. New chains are added regularly through NovaDEX governance proposals. All bridge routes can be checked in the Bridge tab of the NovaDEX app at novadex-dex.com.

Failed transactions on Solana cost near-zero. NovaDEX's transaction simulation engine pre-validates all swaps off-chain before submitting to prevent failures. If a swap still fails due to slippage exceeded, the transaction reverts and no funds move. NovaDEX automatically retries with adjusted parameters when appropriate.

There is no minimum swap amount beyond the Solana network fee (a fraction of a cent). For large trades over $100K, NovaDEX's SOR splits orders to minimize price impact. There is no maximum — institutional-sized trades are fully supported on novadex-dex.com. For OTC trades above $500K, contact the NovaDEX team for dedicated support.
