About the program

Level 2 of Solana for Developers is an advanced DeFi program covering Token-2022, stablecoins, RWA, DEX and AMM design, concentrated liquidity, lending, yield farming, and LSTs.Read moreShow less

A continuation of the program for developers who already understand blockchain and Solana fundamentals and want a structured view of DeFi architecture and financial mechanics.

During the course, you will:

• explore Solana token standards, Token-2022, and wallet-to-program interaction;

• understand stablecoin models, real-world asset tokenization, and their risks;

• compare AMMs, concentrated liquidity, DLMM, order books, and Jupiter routing;

• study lending protocols, LTV, liquidations, utilization rates, and oracles;

• evaluate yield farming, vault strategies, APR, APY, and liquid staking;

• reinforce the core concepts with a quiz after every lesson.

Outcome: your own DeFi application on Solana, with an architecture, financial mechanics, returns, and risks that you can clearly justify.
