Solana dev builds real-time token price engine from on-chain data

A developer built a real-time token price engine for Solana without relying on external APIs. The system calculates token prices and market caps directly from on-chain data by analyzing token balance differences before and after transactions. This approach avoids rate limits, reduces latency, and offers greater customization compared to using third-party services like Dexscreener or Birdeye. AI

IMPACT Enables more robust and customizable on-chain data analysis for trading platforms.
