FAQ - Carbium | Solana RPC & Infrastructure Questions


General

Q: What is Carbium?

A: Carbium is a full stack Solana infrastructure provider born from the evolution of Spiderswap and $SPDR. We deliver everything you need to build and trade on Solana: a high performance DEX aggregator, institutional grade RPC endpoints, analytics via Carbium Data, and a Swiss hosted validator that reinforces the network’s decentralization.

Q: What makes Carbium different from other Solana services?

A: Speed, neutrality, and independence. Where others depend on rented servers in Frankfurt or the U.S., our infrastructure runs on Swiss operated data centers with direct fiber links across Europe. That means sub 50 ms latency, higher reliability, and zero compromise in sovereignty.

Q: How is Carbium expanding?

A: Our growth strategy focuses on four pillars: Infrastructure, Partnerships, Cost Leadership, and Community. We collaborate with developers, exchanges, and institutions migrating to Solana, backed by Swiss credibility and transparent economics. From hackathons to data products, we’re building not just tools, but the backbone of Solana’s decentralized economy.


DEX & API

Q: How does Carbium DEX work?
