Jito DAO protocol and JTO token developments

Overview

Jito DAO, a liquid-staking protocol on Solana, implemented governance proposal JIP-38, which mandates that 100% of the DAO’s revenue share from its JTX trading terminal be used for programmatic buybacks and permanent burns of the JTO token. This initiative aims to tie protocol revenue to token scarcity.

Following these developments, Jito Finance experienced significant on-chain strength. The JTO token saw a 131% increase over a 90-day period, supported by a rise in Total Value Locked (TVL) to approximately $768.78 million. Protocol earnings also showed momentum in early Q3, with roughly $489,140 recorded in the first two months, representing about one-third of the $1.48 million earned in Q2.

By late August, a divergence emerged between market price and on-chain activity. Despite a weekly price decline of approximately 9.69%, the asset saw $24.72 million in spot buying over a four-day period, resulting in a net inflow of $2.02 million. During this time, TVL grew by $243.81 million since August 19, reaching approximately $1.017 billion.

In the derivatives market, funding rates decreased from 0.0143% to 0.0060%, potentially indicating increased short positions. Additionally, the Jito Foundation is exploring institutional digital asset products based on JitoSOL in collaboration with Wavebridge.
