# Market Making Service

> Managed liquidity infrastructure for Solana token issuers.

SolHedge offers managed Market Making (MM) services to Solana tokens that have already launched but struggle with:

    Spreads that kill the trading experience.

## How It Works

SolHedge solves this using the same Meteora DLMM + Jupiter + Phoenix Trade infrastructure it uses for its own vaults, now offered as a managed service. The client project benefits from tighter spreads and deeper liquidity. SolHedge earns fees. \$SHEDGE accrues value.

MM clients receive:

* Tighter bid-ask spreads managed by AI
* Consistent liquidity depth across price ranges
* Reduced IL exposure versus manual LP
* Transparent, on-chain proof of MM activity

## Why This Is the Right Utility for \$SHEDGE

| Factor                | Why It Matters                                                                            |
| --------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Real revenue source   | MM fees are real, recurring, and tied to actual trading volume                            |
| Compounding demand    | More MM clients means more \$SHEDGE bought as service fees, plus more buyback from volume |
| Defensible moat       | Requires the Meteora + Jupiter + Phoenix Trade expertise SolHedge already has             |
| Ecosystem flywheel    | Better liquidity for client tokens drives more trading, more fees, more revenue           |
| Token supply pressure | Fee-in-\$SHEDGE creates buy demand; buyback from volume adds deflationary pressure        |

MM service access is paid for entirely in \$SHEDGE, with no staking or lockup required. See [Token Utility](/token/utility) for tier details.
