## What Is Raydium?

[Raydium](https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/raydium/) is a [Solana](https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/solana/)-based [decentralized exchange](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/glossary/decentralized-exchange-dex) (DEX) with an [automated market maker](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/glossary/automated-market-maker-amm) (AMM) model. Users can [swap](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/glossary/token-swap), trade, and become [liquidity providers](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/glossary/liquidity-provider-tokens-lp-tokens). The exchange provides liquidity to [Serum](https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/serum/), another Solana-based exchange with a central [order book](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/glossary/order-book) model. Therefore, Raydium users can access the order flow and liquidity of Serum and vice versa. Furthermore, the platform claims to offer the best price swap feature that automatically determines whether a token swap is cheaper if routed through the [liquidity pool](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/glossary/liquidity-pool) or the Serum order book. 

Users can also add liquidity and receive LP tokens, which represent a proportional share of the pooled assets. Every time a token swap is performed, LP token holders receive 0.22% of the trade volume. It is distributed according to the proportion of liquidity provided to the pool. There is also an option to create permissionless pools, which will also place orders on the Serum order book. This way, users can add any token pairs they wish and earn a share of the trading fees. 

The native [RAY](https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/raydium/) token can be staked to earn additional tokens. It also serves as a [governance token](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/glossary/governance-token) that can be used to vote on improvement proposals and fee structures on the exchange.  


## Who Are the Raydium Founders?

With a background in algorithmic trading in commodities, Alpha transitioned to market making and liquidity providing for cryptocurrency in 2017 and hasn't looked back.

XRay is Raydium's Chief of Technology and Dev Team leader. X has 8 years of experience as a trading and low latency systems architect for both traditional and crypto markets. X designs all of Raydium’s systems and infrastructure as needed.
