# What is Squirrel Swap?

Squirrel Swap is the first decentralized exchange (DEX) on Solana to combine trading with rewards. Our **Swap-to-Earn** model allows users to earn $SOL tokens simply by staking $SQRL and trading on the platform. It’s fast, efficient, and rewarding—everything a trader could ask for!

In a nutshell, Squirrel Swap makes trading smarter, faster, and more rewarding by giving back to its community and creating a sustainable ecosystem. With every swap, you contribute to development, community growth, and charitable causes.
