Jito Labs

Founding Date
2021

Jito Labs is the first MEV infrastructure company building high-performance systems to scale Solana and maximize validator rewards. A liquid staking solution for Solana, Jito is making MEV more democratic and accessible to the trading community and Solana validators. The protocol’s smart contracts allow users to stake SOL on Solana to receive a corresponding liquid staking derivative token, JitoSOL.

ABOUT JITO LABS

  • Jito Labs develops tools for traders that are symbiotic with its infrastructure. 

  • Jito-Solana, the first fully open-source, third-party validator client developed for the Solana blockchain, is a better way to earn more revenue and utilize hardware.

  • Jito Labs also makes two additional trading tools: a priority mempool, which enables traders to see transactions at the speed they arrive on the network, and ShredStream, which provides low-latency access to shreds from leaders running the Jito-Solana client.
