Doppler Expands to Solana With Native Rebuild
Doppler, a token launch protocol built by Whetstone Research, is expanding to Solana. The company now handles more than 90% of new DEX pool launches on Base, with over 40,000 daily asset creations representing $1.5 billion in aggregate value.
The team at Doppler has redesigned the protocol from first principles to accommodate Solana's Virtual Machine (SVM). Founder Austin Adams noted that the SVM has 'fundamentally different constraints' than other chains.
Doppler operates as a Uniswap v4 hook, automating initial price discovery through Dutch-auction dynamic bonding curves. The protocol earns trading fees on tokens, making volume rather than launch count the primary revenue driver.
