Jupiter at 1.7x Revenue: Is JUP the Biggest Discount in Solana DeFi?

Jupiter (JUP) just got a serious vote of confidence. ParaFi Capital put $35 million into the project, marking the first major outside investment tied to Jupiter’s next phase. 

Around the same time, Jupiter confirmed Polymarket is coming to Solana through its ecosystem. These are not small updates. They point to Jupiter becoming a bigger piece of Solana’s DeFi stack.

However, a post from aixbt highlighted something that stands out fast. Jupiter trades at roughly 1.7x revenue, with an annual run rate near $365 million.

That is low compared to other major DeFi names. Aave trades closer to 5x. Compound sits near 4x. dYdX trades around 6x. Jupiter is producing real revenue, yet the market is pricing it like a smaller player.

ParaFi Did Not Pay for a Simple DEX Aggregator

ParaFi manages around $7 billion. Funds like that do not deploy $35 million casually. The tweet makes the point clearly: they are not paying infrastructure multiples for a basic aggregator.

They are paying for something bigger. Jupiter (JUP) is being treated like Solana’s financial operating system. It sits at the center of swaps, routing, liquidity, and now new product layers. That positioning matters more than the “DEX aggregator” label.

Other accounts echoed the same logic.

The Upsider noted that ParaFi’s pricing makes sense if the goal is exposure to yield primitives without the same revenue instability that smaller protocols face.

Heard in the Trenches put it more bluntly: this is how size gets deployed without regret later. The message is simple. This was a conviction buy, not a trade.

Polymarket Integration Expands the JUP Ecosystem

Jupiter also announced an integration bringing Polymarket to Solana. That adds prediction markets into the Jupiter orbit.

More products mean more volume. More volume means more fees. Jupiter’s business grows when activity grows across Solana. This is how platforms scale. Not by adding noise, but by becoming the place where users stay.

Why JUP Might Be a Discount

At 1.7x revenue, Jupiter is valued far below peers that generate similar levels of usage. If Solana DeFi keeps expanding, Jupiter (JUP) sits in the flow of that growth.

The market may not keep pricing it like a simple swap tool if institutions start treating it as core infrastructure. That is the gap investors are watching.

Furthermore, Jupiter is producing hundreds of millions in annual revenue, trading at a multiple that looks unusually low next to other DeFi giants. 

ParaFi’s $35 million backing adds weight, and new integrations like Polymarket push Jupiter (JUP) beyond aggregation into a wider financial layer. If Solana’s ecosystem keeps growing, JUP may not stay discounted for long.
