About LIQ Protocol
A decentralized on-chain liquidation engine powering Serum markets & lending platforms on the Solana network. LIQ Protocol is an on-chain liquidation protocol built for Serum DEX margin markets and lending platforms on the Solana network. The protocol provides liquidity through its engines to manage liquidations full-time for Solana-based margin/borrowing projects, which allows projects to have a solidified backend for dealing with settlement liquidity. The liquidator checks for overexposed accounts and prepares those accounts for liquidation, then provides funds to the liquidated accounts liabilities, and in return receives funds from the liquidated account’s collateral. The liquidator's profits are split between going back to the liquidator's insurance fund and buying back LIQ for staking rewards. Solana is a high-performance and permissionless blockchain that is part of the next generation of cryptocurrency technology.

Raydium
Raydium is an automated market maker (AMM) built on the Solana blockchain which leverages the central order book of the Serum decentralized exchange (DEX) to enable lightning-fast trades, shared liquidity and new features for earning yield. Other AMM DEXs and DeFi protocols are only able to access liquidity within their own pools and have no access to a central order book. Additionally, with the majority of platforms running on Ethereum, transactions are slow and gas fees are high. We leverage the efficiency of the Solana blockchain to achieve transactions magnitudes faster than Ethereum and gas fees which are a fraction of the cost. Raydium provides on-chain liquidity to the central limit order book of the Serum DEX, meaning that Raydium allows access to the order flow and liquidity of the entire Serum ecosystem. For traders who want to be able to view TradingView charts, set limit orders and have more control over their trading.

Ellipsis Labs Phoenix
Building the liquidity backbone of DeFi. High throughput blockchains have enabled the creation of new financial primitives. Ellipsis Labs is building Phoenix, a decentralized limit order book on Solana that is fully on-chain, non-custodial, and crankless. A composable liquidity hub is a public good for all of DeFi. Developers can build other on-chain applications that either post liquidity to or draw liquidity from the canonical liquidity source. AMMs either rely on unsustainable liquidity incentives or require retail LPs to consistently lose money. Because Solana has high throughput, fast blocks, and low fees, Solana DEXs can support active liquidity provisioning. This enables professional market makers to provide tighter and deeper liquidity while still being profitable and sustainable. Phoenix has an instant settlement. Unlike existing order books on Solana, Phoenix doesn't require an asynchronous crank to settle trades.
