- Solana-powered Clone Protocol launches mainnet for easy trading of non-native tokens, boosting liquidity and efficiency.
- Clone introduces clAssets on Solana, promising twice the capital efficiency of traditional AMMs, revolutionizing liquidity provision.
Wrapped crypto protocol, Clone has officially launched its public mainnet on Solana, marking a significant milestone in decentralized finance (DeFi). The protocol promises more liquidity and capital efficiency by streamlining trading for non-native assets with the introduction of Clone Markets and Clone Liquidity, which are innovative solutions.
We’re excited to announce that we are officially the first project to bring a liquid spot market for SUI from @SuiNetwork to Solana DeFi through our brand new cloned asset: clSUI!

With its mainnet launch on Solana, Clone has made a significant contribution to the decentralization of non-native token trade in the blockchain ecosystem. Clone enables Cloned Assets (clAssets) to give users access to extremely liquid markets for various tokens, using Solana’s fast transactions and inexpensive costs. This change aims to provide traders with a fluid trading experience directly on Solana, removing the need for them to navigate numerous chains.
Cloned Assets and Streamlined Trading
Through Clone Markets, users can purchase and sell ClAssets directly on the Solana blockchain, acting as a decentralized trading platform. Users no longer have to switch between chains, simplifying portfolio management and improving overall trading efficiency. Furthermore, Clone Liquidity provides liquidity providers with a cutting-edge Comet Liquidity System that supports leveraged, cross-margin liquidity pools with USD Coin (USDC) as the only collateral. This ground-breaking method guarantees unmatched capital efficiency in the supply of liquidity.
The introduction of clAssets promises at least twice the capital efficiency compared to traditional Automated Market Makers (AMMs), facilitating rapid scaling to include a wide range of non-native, on-chain assets in a single exchange.
According to co-inventor Evan Deutsch, the Clone protocol’s goal is to allow the trade of any token inside of Solana, promote community development, and unleash the full potential of the blockchain. With the help of Clone’s creative ideas, Solana hopes to establish itself as a global trading platform that provides unmatched advantages to liquidity providers and traders.
Introducing clSUI Token
In conjunction with the public mainnet launch, Clone Protocol introduces a new token: cloned SUI (clSUI). This token enables Solana users to trade SUI tokens on the platform for the first time, expanding the range of tradable assets and providing users greater flexibility in managing their portfolios.
With clSUI now available on Clone Protocol, Solana users can enjoy faster transactions and lower costs than traditional trading platforms. This development marks a significant step forward in Clone’s mission to revolutionize trading experiences on Solana’s blockchain.
Solana’s Market Momentum
Meanwhile, Solana (SOL) continues its upward momentum in the market, with a 1% gain. The daily trading volume for Solana is currently at 3 billion, with a 30% decrease in price on the weekly charts. Analysts foresee a potential rally for Solana, with expectations of the price reaching $200 in March.
Solana’s recent market activity reflects increased momentum following a period of consolidation. After trading within a tight range of $100 to $110 for about a week, Solana witnessed a breakout above the resistance level, leading to a bullish phase. Despite a brief correction, bullish sentiment quickly regained momentum, propelling the price by 13% and surpassing the $125 resistance level. Analysts anticipate this bullish trend to persist, projecting a potential rally to $200 in March.
