The Solana Foundation said on September 1, 2026, that Flint Trade is live on Frontier Traders, its network-level institutional trading program. Flint’s on-chain propAMM (proprietary automated market maker) is now an approved venue, so volume routed through it counts toward a firm’s aggregate Frontier Traders tier eligibility across approved Solana venues. The program pays $15,000 per asset each month through a dedicated maker tier, distributed by volume among makers quoting below 2.3 basis points from the NBBO midpoint on trades under $250,000. Flint’s infrastructure manages Solana gas and priority fees, transaction sequencing, submission and fill reporting through Rust and Python client libraries. Its matching system combines isolated USDC-quoted maker positions into a virtual orderbook and allocates fills pro rata, with tighter quotes receiving priority at each price level. Jupiter, DFlow and Titan are live taker aggregator integrations, while OKX DEX remains in progress. Their combined 30-day volumes totaled $17.727 billion as of September 1, 2026, and all-time aggregator volume reached $1.36 trillion. Pine Analytics measured Flint’s quote-update cost at 281 compute units per transaction and listed fees ranging from 0.01 to 1 basis point depending on the pair. Flint was co-founded by Joshua Watts and David Gorski, with engineering staff previously associated with Anza, Google, Step Finance, Drift, M0 and Coinbase.
