Degen mode is a specific setting within Market Orders that is designed to prioritize transaction success over minimizing slippage and execution price. This can be helpful during times of extreme network congestion or peak demand for newly launched tokens to prevent failed trades.
Here’s how Degen Mode works:
The Degen Mode toggle is in the Market order ticket
Automatically increases max slippage tolerance to 20% (can be customized) for higher trade fill success
Use "Max Priority Fee" on Solana to set a custom maximum priority fee amount. Note that unlike other platforms, Definitive does not automatically attempt to execute the trade using your max priority fee setting. Instead, our Smart Retry logic will submit the trade with increasing priority fees until your maximum threshold is hit to prevent unnecessary overpaying of priority fees.
Fees: 5-25 bps. See Staking page for detailed rates.
