Pro-rata vs winner-take-all, for makers:
- Fill share scales with size quoted, not queue position
- Toxic fills split across makers caught by the same move, instead of landing on the first in line
- Latency still matters for quote freshness. It stops deciding whether you fill.
Abstracting away the complexity of on-chain trading has been the industry's goal for years.
Flint's Simple Swap was built to do exactly that.
and we're just getting started...
Prop AMMs, like Flint, mean less adverse flow for makers. Less adverse means tighter spreads. Tighter spreads mean better prices for traders. That's the loop Flint is built around.
Three ways to quote on Flint:
-OrderList, for new listings with no price source you trust yet
-OracleOffset, for liquid pairs with a reliable oracle
-LinearDistribution, for passive, wide ladders
Pick what fits the market. Switch anytime.
Plug into a live prop AMM on Solana. Run your own quoting logic, refresh quotes efficiently, match flow from Jupiter, DFlow, Titan. Gas, priority fees, and transaction landing handled for you.
Build your own prop AMM:
-hire Solana devs
-build and maintain the program
-build and maintain every aggregator integration (Jupiter, DFlow, Titan, OKX)
-build your own quoting strategy
-build your own dashboards and markout analysis
-pay for every quote
Or just use Flint.
Amazing to watch (and now participate in) the most interesting decentralized orderflow systems in the world (@solana).
This integration is another piece in the puzzle to plug more liquidity in; @dflow is killing it right now.
@dflow x @flint_trade_
Flint is now a routed venue on @dflow.
Across both spot token trading and tokenized equities, DFlow serves millions of users globally and is trusted by the largest trading platforms.
Flint is now part of that routing.
Admin key stays cold. Quoting runs on a hot key. Withdraws need separate authority. Dashboard logins can only observe.
Flint doesn't cut corners on security. Key separation isn't a feature. It's the default.
"But David, won't the added hop to the flint-server incur a latency penalty?"
The @flint_trade_ client library submits transactions to the flint-server for wide fan-out (should be colo'd tbh) as well as directly to leader TPUs and optionally via direct RPC.

Titan argos now routes into Flint!
@Titan_Exchange's meta-router can access Flint's maker liquidity directly.
More surface area for makers quoting on Flint. Better fills for anyone routing through Argos.
