One of Solana's top 5 DEXs, Lifinity, announces closure; community votes to approve asset distribution plan

2025-12-19 05:38:15

【ChainNews】The Solana ecosystem DEX project Lifinity announced the official start of the shutdown process. This decision was made based on an overwhelming community vote, amid increasing competitive pressure from prop AMMs.

According to the governance proposal, approximately $42 million in assets are pending in the Lifinity DAO treasury. The protocol will convert these funds into USDC and distribute them to LFNTY token holders proportionally. In addition, the team’s reserved $1.4 million development fund will also be included in the distribution plan. The community’s preliminary estimate suggests that each token will receive between $0.90 and $1.10, depending on the final book value.

For holders wishing to redeem, the project recommends first converting tokens from LFNTY or veLFNTY to xLFNTY. The plan is to launch the USDC withdrawal feature for xLFNTY in approximately 9 days, subject to passing security audits.

As a reference, since its launch in February 2022, Lifinity has processed over $149 billion in trading volume, once ranking as the fifth-largest DEX in the Solana ecosystem by trading volume. This shutdown also marks another reshuffle in the competitive landscape within the ecosystem.

The Solana ecosystem elimination race is getting fiercer, another one falling behind. It's another vote to cut, community democracy but also quite brutal. prop AMM is really competitive, can Lifinity withstand it? Does this asset allocation plan harm investors? It feels a bit awkward. The promised community governance, in the end, it's still survival of the fittest.
