Spot and memes

Buy and sell Solana tokens through Jupiter, from the verified list or by search, and see what you paid.

Spot and Memes are in Trade, then Markets. Both are Solana only. You buy inside Hermit through Jupiter, pay from your own wallet, and the tokens land in your own wallet.

Spot lists the big, liquid coins on Jupiter’s verified list. Memes lists the verified meme coins. Both are sorted by 24-hour volume, with live prices.

Buy

Section titled “Buy”
  1. Tap a token, or search for one.
  2. Under You pay, pick USDC or SOL and type an amount, or tap 25%, 50% or Max.
  3. Hermit shows Jupiter’s live quote: about how much you get, the price impact and the slippage (up to 0.5%).
  4. Tap Swap. The review shows the mint address and the route, and Hermit runs Jupiter’s transaction as a test on Solana before you sign.
  5. Approve with Face ID (Touch ID on a Mac). A green ring and “+223.08 PUMP” or similar tell you it landed.

Keep a little SOL in the wallet. Even when you pay in USDC, Solana needs SOL for the fee and for a new token account. If you’re short, Hermit says “Add a little SOL on Solana first. It pays the network fee.” When you pay in SOL, it keeps about 0.01 SOL back.

Section titled “Search”

The search box looks through every Solana token Jupiter knows, not just the verified list. Type a name, a symbol (wif and $wif both work) or paste a mint address. Verified tokens come first.

Tokens that aren’t verified carry tags from Jupiter’s audit, so you can see what you’re looking at before you tap:

Tag What it means
Unverified Not on Jupiter’s verified list. Anyone can make a token with any name.
Freeze on The creator can freeze holders’ tokens.
Mint on The creator can still mint more.
Low liquidity Trades move its price a lot.
Top holders 60% A few wallets own most of it.
New Less than a week old.

Some tokens Hermit won’t buy at all, like ones with under $5K of liquidity or an unverified token whose creator can freeze it. A buy with more than 15% price impact is refused, and over 5% gets a warning. Scam tokens has every rule.

What you hold

Section titled “What you hold”

Under the buy box, Your holdings lists the Solana tokens in your wallet with a value. Open one and Your position shows the amount, the value, the average cost and P&L.

Hermit can only work out cost for what it bought itself. If some of a token came from somewhere else, you’ll see “Some came from outside Hermit”, and with none bought here, “No cost recorded in Hermit”.

To sell, pick Sell for USDC or SOL, then Sell 25%, Sell 50% or Sell max. It’s the same path as buying: quote, review, test run, Face ID. Your Solana tokens also show in Trade, then Positions.
