If you're deep into the world of meme tokens on Solana, you've probably heard of Heaven DEX. It's that slick platform acting as both a decentralized exchange (DEX) and a launchpad for new tokens, making it easier for creators to drop their projects without the usual headaches. What sets it apart? All fees generated on the platform funnel straight back into its native token, $LIGHT, creating a rewarding loop for holders. Think of it as a flywheel where trading activity pumps value right back into the community.

Recently, the Heaven team dropped some major news via an X thread that has the crypto crowd buzzing. In the post from @heavendex, they announced that a "new heaven is coming." Specifically, they've submitted the V2 codebase for a thorough audit, the frontend is wrapping up, and they're on a hiring spree across ecosystem, product, and community roles. This comes hot on the heels of their first successful Spaces event, which they quoted in the thread, thanking builders and community members for showing up.

For those new to this, an audit is like a security check-up by experts to ensure the code is solid and free from vulnerabilities—crucial in DeFi where hacks can wipe out millions. The V2 upgrade promises to build on Heaven's strengths, potentially introducing smoother launches, better fee structures, and enhanced tools for developers. If you're tracking $LIGHT's price, it's currently hovering around $0.015 USD, with a market cap that's seen impressive growth since launch, even hitting over $200 million at one point according to CoinMarketCap.

The thread also points folks to their Telegram channel at t.me/heavenamm for more detailed updates. And in a nod to transparency, they confirmed in replies that all fees still go to $LIGHT holders, linking back to their docs on fees.

Community reactions? They're lit. Users are hyped, with posts like "The outlier will rise once again" accompanied by epic visuals of a red-crowned figure claiming the throne—clearly a metaphor for $LIGHT dominating the Solana meme space. Others are holding strong, sharing memes and art that capture the "let there be light" vibe.

This move aligns with Heaven's rapid rise. Just weeks after launch, it became the second highest revenue-generating DEX protocol in a 24-hour period, per DeFiLlama data shared in community posts. It's challenging incumbents like Pump.fun by offering permissioned fees and lower taxes for traders—0.25% to 0.5% per swap, all benefiting $LIGHT.

If you're a blockchain practitioner eyeing meme tokens, keep an eye on Heaven V2. It could be the next big thing for launching and trading on Solana, blending meme culture with solid tech.
