FluxBeam

FluxBeam is a decentralized exchange (DEX) built on Solana and the first on the network to provide full, native support for the Token2022 token standard. Where most Solana DEXes were built around the original SPL token program and handle Token2022 tokens poorly or not at all, FluxBeam was designed from the start to make these next-generation tokens tradeable—covering their extended fee mechanics, transfer restrictions, and other programmable behaviors as first-class features rather than edge cases.

The Problem It Solves

Solana's Token2022 (also called SPL22 or Token Extensions) program is a superset of the original token program. It adds capabilities that did not exist before: built-in transfer fees that flow directly to the token issuer, confidential transfers using zero-knowledge proofs, non-transferable tokens, interest-bearing mechanics, and per-token account configuration options. These features enable token projects to encode revenue models, compliance requirements, and novel incentive structures directly into the token itself—without separate smart contract logic.

The catch: AMMs and DEXes that were not built for Token2022 cannot correctly account for transfer fees or other extensions when routing and settling trades. A swap that looks like it should return a given amount may actually fall short once the token's built-in fee is deducted mid-transfer. FluxBeam was built to handle this correctly, making it the natural home for any project that has deployed or plans to deploy on Token2022.

Core Mechanism

FluxBeam operates as an AMM with its own liquidity pools on Solana mainnet (program: FLUXubRmkEi2q6K3Y9kBPg9248ggaZVsoSFhtJHSrm1X). Liquidity providers deposit token pairs and receive LP tokens representing their share of the pool. The exchange price is determined algorithmically from the pool's reserves. Users can swap, add liquidity, and remove liquidity through the main interface or via FluxBeam's developer API suite.

The platform also routes through external protocols when beneficial. It integrates with Raydium and Meteora's AMM and DLMM pools, meaning users are not limited to FluxBeam's own liquidity but can access broader Solana DEX depth through a single interface.

Trading Interface and Features

FluxBeam's primary trading interface is called Infinity UI. It combines a real-time TradingView price chart with on-chain token analytics: market cap, total supply, holder distribution, top holder ownership, and RugCheck risk assessments are visible alongside the order entry form. Users can assess token safety and fundamentals without leaving the trading view.

The platform offers a full advanced order system beyond basic market swaps:

• Limit orders: Execute at a specified target price rather than current market
• Take profit: Automatically close a position when a gain target is reached
• Stop loss: Exit automatically when price falls to a specified floor
• Trailing stop loss: Lock in gains as price rises, then exit if it reverses by a defined percentage

A Smart Money module lets traders monitor on-chain activity from wallets classified as whales or informed traders. Transactions from tracked wallets appear in a live feed, and users can execute trades directly from that feed with a single click.

The Trending and Gems sections surface market intelligence. FluxBeam claims its trending signals arrive eight seconds faster than competing aggregators. The Gems view focuses on newly launched tokens, graduating plays (tokens approaching a migration threshold), and recent pool migrations—useful for traders focused on early-stage token activity.

FluxTools

Alongside trading, FluxBeam provides a suite of free token management utilities under the FluxTools banner:

• V1 and V2 token creation: V1 produces standard SPL tokens; V2 targets Token2022 and supports configuring extensions such as transfer fees and transfer restrictions at creation time.
• Pool creation: Lets any project or individual deploy a new liquidity pool, optionally with single-sided initial liquidity.
• Token Locker: Locks LP tokens to demonstrate liquidity commitment to investors—supports both standard and Token2022 LP tokens.
• Token Manager and Fee Manager: Configure token extensions post-deployment, including fee rates and authority revocation.
• MetaData Manager: Update token name, symbol, and URI after launch.
• Token Burn and Mint: Manage supply adjustments while relevant authorities remain active.
• Token Airdrop (Beta): Distribute tokens to multiple wallets from a single transaction batch.
• Withheld Amounts: Track and withdraw transfer fees that have accumulated in the Token2022 fee vault.

These tools position FluxBeam not only as a trading venue but as the operational infrastructure layer for teams building Token2022 projects—a place where they can launch, configure, manage, and eventually lock their token from a single interface.

FluxBot

FluxBot is FluxBeam's companion Telegram trading application. It serves traders who prefer mobile and messaging-native interfaces, with 80 to 90 percent of its users accessing it on mobile devices. The bot supports trading of both SPL and Token2022 tokens, token sniping, real-time monitoring of new pools, and copy trading. It integrates with Marginfi for on-platform lending, borrowing, and liquidation management, and supports over eleven languages to serve a global user base, with a stated emphasis on accessibility in Asian markets.

FluxBot's native token is FLUXB, with a fixed total supply of 500 million tokens. The token was distributed through an airdrop that converted Flux points—earned through Telegram bot activity—to FLUXB at a one-for-one rate. FLUXB was listed on external exchanges after distribution.

Cross-Chain Bridging

FluxBeam integrates bridging to nine external networks: Ethereum, BNB Chain, Polygon, Arbitrum, Avalanche, Linea, Optimism, Base, and Neon. This allows users to move assets into Solana to trade through the interface without separately managing a third-party bridge.

Developer APIs

FluxBeam exposes its core functionality to developers through documented REST APIs:

• Swap Quote API: Returns price quotes for a given input/output token pair
• Swap Transaction API: Returns a fully constructed, ready-to-sign swap transaction
• Swap Instruction API: Returns the individual instructions for integration into custom transactions
• Pool API: Supports programmatic pool creation

Team and Background

The project was founded and led by Scott Hague, known in the ecosystem under the handle Cloakd, who has a background in web3 and Ethereum development. The team combined crypto-native expertise with enterprise software experience and numbered six staff members as of the platform's early public phase. FluxBeam was founded in early 2023 and began publicly advocating for Token2022 adoption before the standard had completed its initial audit.

The project won the Grand Champion award at the Solana Hyperdrive Hackathon, one of the Solana ecosystem's major builder competitions. It also received a grant from the Solana Foundation, which provided both funding and ecosystem recognition. The team has been an active participant in ecosystem research, contributing the Solana Bandwidth Markets proposal—a design for dynamic fee markets intended to address network congestion.

The platform has also extended its scope beyond Solana mainnet, with the FluxBeam website branding itself as a "Next Generation Solana/Fogo DEX," signaling integration with Fogo, a high-performance SVM-compatible chain.

Ecosystem Position

FluxBeam occupies a specific and defensible niche in the Solana DeFi stack: it is the primary venue purpose-built for Token2022. As more projects choose the newer token standard for its programmable capabilities, FluxBeam's tooling advantage becomes more pronounced. Projects that want to deploy with transfer fees, manage those fees post-launch, lock their liquidity, and give holders a place to trade are served end-to-end by FluxBeam's combination of creation tools, pool infrastructure, and trading interface—without requiring separate tools or integrations for each step.
