has officially slipped to 5th place on the Solana TVL rankings, with its Total Value Locked falling below the $1 Billion mark for the first time since February 2024.

📉 The Shocking Numbers:

Massive Drawdown: TVL plummeted from a peak of $3.77B to under $1B—a staggering 73% decline.

Beyond Price Action: While the drop in $SOL price contributed to the USD value decline, the actual tokens are also leaving. Deposits fell from 18.9M SOL to 12.38M SOL (a 34.5% decrease).

Rank Shift: Jito has lost its dominance, moving from the #1 spot to #5 as liquidity migrates elsewhere.

🔍 Market Sentiment: Correction or Weakness?

Is this just a healthy market shakeout, or is there an internal issue within the Jito protocol?

The "Correction" Theory: Much of the ecosystem is bleeding; Jito’s heavy exposure to SOL means it feels the pain twice during a dump.

The "Competition" Theory: New liquid staking protocols and MEV solutions are fighting for market share, potentially draining Jito’s liquidity.

💡 Trader’s Perspective:

Capital flight from a core liquidity hub is never a great sign in the short term. However, Jito remains a fundamental piece of Solana's MEV infrastructure. I am watching for a re-accumulation zone before considering a position.

In volatile markets, knowing where the money is flowing is key. I track on-chain TVL and exchange flows to keep my followers safe.
