DLMM bins and the volatility fee
A DLMM pool stores liquidity in discrete price bins. A buy drains the active bin and steps into the next, pricier one. Meteora adds a variable fee on top of the base fee that rises with how many bins the price has crossed recently and decays when trading calms down. Thirty wallets buying in the same second therefore pay more than thirty spread over a few minutes, even at the same total size.
| Pool | Liquidity | Fee behaviour |
|---|---|---|
| DLMM | Discrete price bins | Base fee plus a volatility fee that rises with fast moves |
| DAMM v2 | Constant product, one position NFT per LP | Set per pool; can start high and decay after launch |
| DAMM v1 | Constant product (the original Dynamic AMM) | Set per pool |
Fresh DAMM v2 pools
Many DAMM v2 pools are created with a fee schedule: a high fee for the first minutes to discourage snipers, stepping down to a normal level. Buying a token in its first minutes on Meteora can cost several percent per trade. The quote always includes the fee the pool charges at that moment, so the review is accurate, but it's worth checking before a large run.
Bonding coins are not here
Coins still on Meteora's Dynamic Bonding Curve (Jupiter Studio, Bags, Moonit) are not routed by this page, which only allows the graduated pool programs. Use the launchpad's own mass buy for those: Jupiter Studio, Bags or Moonit.
Meteora example
80 wallets drawing a random 0.15–0.35 SOL each spend about 20 SOL, which makes SOLTidy's 0.5% about 0.1 SOL, right at the per-run ceiling; any extra wallets in the same run pay no SOLTidy fee. 80 new token accounts take about 0.16 SOL of refundable rent. With a 5–20 second stagger the run takes around 15 minutes and the DLMM fee has time to settle.
Questions & answers
What fees does a Meteora mass buy pay?
The pool's base fee plus any volatility or launch fee inside the quote, SOLTidy's 0.5% of SOL spent up to 0.1 SOL per run, network fees and rent.
Why did later wallets pay a higher pool fee?
DLMM's variable fee rises while the price moves. Staggering the wallets lets it decay.
Can it buy a Bags or Studio coin before it graduates?
No, those trade on Meteora's bonding curve. Their own mass buy pages handle the curve.
Why 'no Meteora pool found'?
Jupiter has no Meteora route between SOL and the token. Try the Raydium or Jupiter versions.
Can each wallet spend a different amount?
Yes: Random draws an amount per wallet when the review opens.
