Jupiter, the leading decentralized exchange (DEX) aggregator on Solana, has officially launched Mobile V3, which it describes as the first fully native professional trading terminal for mobile devices. Announced on January 1, 2026, via the project's official X account, the update aims to transform smartphones into comprehensive trading workstations by eliminating the need for browser-based decentralized applications (dApps).
The core of the upgrade is the Ultra V3 trading engine, which enables direct in-app trading. Jupiter claims this engine reduces execution costs by up to ten times compared to competing mobile applications. It integrates several advanced features: the Iris Router for competitive pricing, ShadowLane for private execution with reduced latency, and Predictive Execution to simulate routes and anticipate slippage before transactions are confirmed.
Further enhancements include significantly stronger MEV (Miner Extractable Value) protection—reportedly up to 34 times stronger—and support for gasless trading on more token pairs, including memecoin-to-memecoin swaps with a minimum trade size of $10. The user interface has been completely revamped for improved token discovery, analysis, and portfolio monitoring, targeting both casual users and professional traders.
The rollout of Mobile V3 features will be gradual, occurring over a 21-day period to educate users. This launch is part of Jupiter's broader strategy to evolve into a DeFi super-app on Solana, following other recent product expansions like lending, perpetuals, and stablecoins. Jupiter currently processes the majority of weekly trading volume on Solana and controls over 93% of its DEX aggregation market.
