Jupiter adds graded Pokémon and One Piece cards to its onchain product suite
Tech & Launches ·
The Solana-based exchange has introduced Gacha, a new platform bringing authenticated, graded trading cards onchain with tradable collectibles and rewards reaching $100,000.
Jupiter, which has built out a broad trading and lending stack on Solana, confirmed the launch of Gacha in a post shared on X. The platform lets users hold and trade authenticated, graded copies of Pokémon and One Piece cards as onchain assets, with a rewards pool of up to $100,000 tied to participation. Coverage from The Block frames the move as a step toward legitimizing tokenized collectibles by putting them on a widely used decentralized exchange rather than a niche marketplace.
The mechanics rest on grading and authentication before a card is represented onchain, meaning the collectible's condition and provenance are verified prior to tokenization, after which it becomes tradable within Jupiter's existing infrastructure. This mirrors how Jupiter has approached other asset classes on its platform: rather than building an isolated app, it folds new categories, in this case physical collectibles, into the same interface used for swaps, lending, and other onchain finance products, as detailed in its broader project profile on Leviathan.
The launch lands amid a run of product expansions from Jupiter, including an Express Verification API for instant token checks, a cashback program offering up to $1,000 in monthly rewards for Superteam users, and a Jupiter Lend expansion that allows borrowing against tokenized equities such as SPYx, QQQx, NVDAx, and TSLAx. Separately, Ethena has launched a dedicated lending market on Jupiter Lend with Bitwise handling risk management, and Ethena's ENA token went live on Solana via Sunrise with swap support across Phantom, Jupiter, and Kamino. Taken together, these moves point to a platform stretching well beyond its DEX-aggregator origins into lending, prediction markets, and now physical collectibles.
What remains unclear is how the $100,000 in rewards will be distributed, what specific verification standard is used to grade the cards before tokenization, and how liquid the resulting market for onchain Pokémon and One Piece cards will be once trading begins. Two distinct sources have covered the launch so far, and further detail on the rewards structure and card supply is expected as the platform opens to users.
