According to CoinDesk, Orca, the largest decentralized exchange (Dex) on Solana, will ban U.S. users from trading tokens through the Orca front-end webpage starting from March 31. Orca officials did not explain why they did this. They only stated on the webpage that they would add the United States to the regions and countries that restrict transactions on Orca.

However, like Tornado Cash, although users cannot use the web front-end, they can still interact with the protocol directly through smart contracts. In addition, since many of Orca’s transactions come from transaction aggregator Jupiter, CoinDesk believes this will slightly slow Orca’s transaction volume loss.

According to DeFillama data, Orca’s trading volume was $280 million in the past week, more than twice that of the second-place Serum.
