Bankless Review: Drift

The first impetus that brings many degens onchain is a desire to speculate on tokens with leverage. Where better to begin your Solana exploration than with a protocol where you can put your speculation skills to the test and position yourself for a future airdrop?

While gains are never assured, traders likely rest easier transacting on Drift, Solana’s leading exchange, knowing that a partial rebate for losses or extra sweetener for profits in the form of an airdrop is likely on the way.

Multiple exchange and derivative platforms exist on Solana, but today, I'm digging into Drift’s product offerings and providing you with my take on the experience.
