What truly separates Fogo from other SVM networks is its vertical integration. While Solana is a general-purpose network, Fogo has been "curated" for the financial sector. The network includes native oracles integrated directly at the validator level, eliminating reliance on slow external services for price feeds. This allows DEXs built on Fogo to operate with almost identical efficiency to a centralized exchange (CEX), while maintaining self-custody of assets. In February 2026, we have seen how liquidity has concentrated on its native exchange primitives, suggesting that institutional traders are beginning to see Fogo as a viable alternative for arbitrage strategies requiring millimeter precision.
