Finding Pools

Paste a token address​

The fastest way to start is to paste a token contract address (CA) into the chat. Demeter will:

  1. Detect the chain from the address format.
  2. Resolve the token (symbol, name, decimals).
  3. List the pools that contain the token, with live market data.

Reading the pair list​

For each pool you'll typically see:

  • The pair (e.g. TOKEN / USDC).
  • The fee tier or bin step — the fee level of that pool. On concentrated‑liquidity DEXes the fee is tied to this parameter, so choosing a pool also chooses the fee.
  • Liquidity (TVL) and, when available, 24h volume and price.

Deeper liquidity usually means less slippage, while higher‑fee pools can earn more per trade but often see less volume. Pick the pool that matches how actively the pair trades.

Market data​

Demeter shows the current price, and — where a USD reference is available — the USD price, market cap, liquidity, and volume. On some chains only the on‑chain price (token priced in its pair) is available; that's normal and still enough to choose a range.

What counts as a valid token​

  • EVM addresses look like 0x followed by 40 hex characters.
  • Solana mint addresses are base58 strings.

If Demeter can't find pools for a token, it may simply have no liquidity pools yet on the supported DEX for that chain.
