Say hello to @formation_so. Orca is merging with @Loopscale to bring Solana's deepest liquidity and fixed-rate credit into one full-stack DeFi platform. Trade it, borrow against it, put it to work in a vault.

DeFi has demonstrated the power of onchain financial infrastructure across the small universe of crypto assets. The much bigger opportunity is using that infrastructure to expand the universe of assets that capital markets can serve. Bringing together Orca and Loopscale as @formation_so puts us in a unique position to build toward that future.

Really enjoyed talking through the @orca_so x @Loopscale merger, financing the frontier onchain and the path to regulated US markets with @0xResearch. Formation is the future of onchain capital markets. @0xcarlosg and co. asking some hard hitters!

Bullish to see @formation_so cofounder @cpmontagano in one of Korea’s biggest media outlets, making the case for why Solana will be the home of tokenized securities. Solana is Global.

A silent beast in the making? Loopscale and Orca merged, so we now have: - @orca_so → trading + LPing - @Loopscale → earning - @formation_so → public capital markets onchain @Luketruitt on Formation: “AI, robotics and factories need massive amounts of capital. Tokenization makes raising and investing in it cheaper and easier.”
back to defi: spent the day to find the highest stablecoin yields on solana and I tell you passive income isn't dead yet: $10,000 in stables can still earn you ~$2,000+/year (without stressing out about liquidation, rugs, etc.)

Orca pool creators can now pick from two new Adaptive Fee profiles. Launch Spike: for new token launches Quick Reset: for tokens with frequent bursts of volatility When price moves, your pool's fee responds. Each profile changes how hard it rises and how fast it resets ↓

Quick Reset Once the price settles for 30 seconds, the fee drops back to base so your pool stays competitive between bursts. Available on the 1% fee tier. Create a pool: orca.so/create-pool/advanced

$1.7B in RWA volume was built on Orca. @formation_so is where we scale it. Shoutout to @birdeye_data for the data.
Solana’s RWA market is gaining serious traction, with @orca_so emerging as a key venue for tokenized asset trading. Since July 2025, Orca has recorded $1.7B+ in cumulative trading volume for tokenized assets, including a 400% surge in June 2026. Momentum is carrying into October, with RWA volume exceeding $220M in the first half of the month alone. With Orca and Loopscale now migrated to @formation_so, the ecosystem could be entering an exciting new phase for on-chain RWAs. Data powered by @birdeye_data.
