Solana

FatCat trades on the Solana blockchain. Through FatCat you can trade Solana tokens and on-chain Perpetual contracts. You’ll use SOL to pay network fees.

Most actions need a small SOL balance, including swaps and order placement.

Why you need SOL

  • Network fees: every on-chain action costs a small amount of SOL.

  • Trading actions: swaps and order actions are on-chain.

  • Smooth execution: an insufficient SOL balance can cause failed or stuck actions.

Where to get SOL

Use one of these options:

  • A centralized exchange (Coinbase, Binance, Kraken, etc.)

  • Another onramp provider supported in your country

  • Transfer SOL from another Solana wallet you control

Common mistakes to avoid

  • Sending SOL on the wrong network (for example, an exchange “SOL” token on another chain).

  • Copy/paste errors on the wallet address.

  • Running your SOL balance to zero, then being unable to sell/cancel.

Safety notes

  • On-chain transactions are final. There are no chargebacks.

  • Always verify the address and network before sending.

  • FatCat does not sell SOL. We only connect to your wallet.
