Overview
DexHunter helps you swap Cardano tokens at the best price available, without juggling separate exchanges. It checks 15+ Cardano exchanges at the same time, then either sends your trade to whichever one offers the most tokens back, or splits it across several to do even better. You connect a Cardano wallet and trade right away. There is no signup, no email, no identity check, and DexHunter never holds your money.
DexHunter was previously called Jungle. It was founded by Nikita Melentjevs, whose team built the system so that trades go straight to each exchange's own code without any middleman service in between.1 It supports 100+ Cardano native tokens and works with the main Cardano wallets, including Nami, Eternl, Yoroi, Lace, and Flint. More than 50 other Cardano projects plug DexHunter into their own apps to offer swaps, and share a cut of the fees in return.2
Key Features
- Best-price search across 15+ exchanges. DexHunter compares rates on Minswap, SundaeSwap, WingRiders, Splash, and others, splitting a single trade across pools when that gets you more tokens back.3
- Limit orders and scheduled buys. Set a target price and DexHunter fills your order automatically when the market reaches it. Or set up a regular buy (for example, 50 ADA of a token every Friday) and it runs on schedule.3
- Wallet alerts. Label and follow other Cardano wallet addresses, and get a notification when one of them makes a trade. Useful for keeping an eye on accounts that often move the market.2
- Live order book view. See real-time buy and sell pressure for a token before you trade, so you know roughly how much room there is at each price.
- Easy plug-in for other apps. Other Cardano projects can add DexHunter's swap engine to their own site with a single line of code, and earn a share of the fees on the trades that pass through.3
What to Expect
Using DexHunter starts with connecting any supported Cardano wallet. No signup, no email. The swap screen shows side-by-side prices from every supported exchange, plus a small diagram of how your trade will be split if that gives you a better deal. Most swaps go through within seconds of being confirmed on the Cardano network, and the screen confirms your order even before it fully settles on-chain.
Beyond simple swaps, DexHunter offers limit orders, scheduled buys, trending-token discovery, multiple chart views, and a portfolio overview. There is also a mobile version through the Vespr wallet app, plus DexHunter-powered swaps embedded inside several other Cardano apps.
DexHunter has its own token called HUNT (capped at 100 million), which gives holders fee discounts and a say in governance. DexHunter's automatic-buying feature (the part that runs scheduled buys for you) has a public audit report online, though the report does not name the firm that wrote it.4 DexHunter never holds your funds and relies on each exchange's own smart contracts to settle trades, so the security of any given swap depends on the exchange it is routed through.
