Cardano Launchpad on Solana Records 129,500 ADA in Trading Activity, Rewards Users With 4,000+ ADA

Solada.fun, which calls itself the first Cardano launchpad on Solana, recorded 129,500 $ADA in trading activity over the past 24 hours.

The development highlights strong interest in its cross-chain token launch platform. In an October 13 update, the platform reported 277 users, including 176 active traders. It also had 34 live token launches: 24 on Solana and 10 on Cardano.

Two tokens, $PAWS on Solana and $JUSTQ on Cardano, also graduated from the platform. Users earned more than 4,000 $ADA in rewards during the same period.

These figures show Solada.fun’s early efforts to connect Cardano users and creators with Solana’s trading ecosystem.

How Solada Connects Cardano and Solana

Solada.fun launched its $ADA-focused platform on October 9 as the first launchpad to connect Cardano and Solana. The project later confirmed that its cross-chain features were live.

The platform lets creators launch tokens on Solana through Pump.fun using Cardano wallets. Solana users can then buy and trade these tokens without needing a Cardano wallet.

This makes it easier for users to access projects on another blockchain without switching ecosystems.

Solada says it manages token supply across both blockchains using custodial reserves. It charges a launch fee of 15 $ADA to help cover costs and liquidity, while creators receive rewards in $ADA.

The platform aims to help Cardano creators reach more traders on Solana while still using $ADA for parts of the process.

Could Solana Help Cardano Projects Reach More Users?

X user Kat said Cardano projects could reach more people by going where traders already are instead of trying to bring them to Cardano. Solana has a large trading community and strong liquidity, making it an attractive option for Cardano creators who want to reach more users.

The idea is to bring Cardano projects to Solana’s existing traders rather than asking those traders to switch to Cardano.

Credit where it's due, this is exactly the type of project that blows up in other ecosystems, is this going to be Cardano's moment?@soladafun is the 1st Cardano launchpad on Solana 👀

Creators can launch tokens on Solana using $ADA/Cardano wallets, and Solana users can buy…

Solada’s latest figures show early user activity, and analysts are watching to see the platform maintain trading volumes, rewards, and user growth over time.

The platform has launched tokens on both Solana and Cardano, suggesting it aims to serve both communities. Solada’s long-term success will depend on keeping traders active, supporting token performance and maintaining growth beyond its initial launch period.
