Saros x Metaplex $1m Liquidity Grant Pool: Unlocking a Seamless Path from Token Launch to Bootstrapping Liquidity
Saros partners with Metaplex Genesis to power the next wave of Solana token launches, offering $1M in $SAROS liquidity grants to help projects create instant, zero-cost liquidity pools from day one.
Simplifying Token Launch Liquidity
Launching a token is one of the most pivotal and capital-intensive milestones for any Web3 project. Beyond the technology, the challenge lies in bootstrapping trading liquidity so users can buy, sell, and interact with tokens smoothly.
Through this collaboration, Metaplex projects can now access a dedicated portion of Saros’ broader $10 million USD-valued Liquidity Grant Program. This removes the need for teams to commit their own stablecoins or fund large incentive campaigns to create liquid markets for their tokens.
The result: new tokens can enter the market with deep, organic liquidity from day one, ensuring efficient price discovery and an improved experience for both traders and builders across Solana.
From Launch to Liquidity: A Complete Builder Pipeline
This integration bridges two critical layers of Solana’s infrastructure: Metaplex Genesis for token launches and Saros for on-chain liquidity.
By connecting the two, high-quality builders gain a direct pathway from mint to market for their tokens:
Securely create and distribute tokens with Metaplex Genesis.
Apply for Saros’ Liquidity Grant, where the project’s tokens are paired in a liquidity pool with $SAROS.
Get instant tradability across Solana’s aggregators, with zero capital commitment required.
It’s a frictionless route that lets teams focus on building products instead of sourcing capital for liquidity, turning the traditional “launch, then raise” cycle into “launch with liquidity.”
“We’re excited to work alongside Metaplex to empower projects launching on Solana,” said Lynn Nguyen, CEO of Saros. “Together, we’re lowering the barrier to liquidity formation, allowing builders to focus on their products instead of worrying about capital constraints.”
A Powerful On-chain Collaboration
Metaplex has long been the backbone of asset creation on Solana, powering millions of NFTs, fungible tokens, and launch frameworks that have defined the ecosystem’s growth.
Now, with Saros providing a liquidity layer to support trading, successful applicant tokens launched via Metaplex Genesis can benefit from the same high-efficiency infrastructure used by leading assets such as BONK, PENGU, and others.
“Saros and Metaplex are complementary layers of Solana’s on-chain economy,” said …, … of Metaplex. “One provides the infrastructure to create and distribute tokens; the other ensures those tokens thrive in liquid, efficient markets.”
