What is Drift ® Protocol?

Drift ® Protocol is an open-sourced, non-custodial decentralized exchange focused on perpetual futures and cross-margin trading built on the Solana blockchain. It combines low latency, on-chain risk management and yield features so traders can deposit collateral, open leveraged positions, and earn yield.

Common account & login issues

If Drift ® Login fails, first ensure you're on the official start.drift.com or app.drift.trade domain (avoid phishing). Try passwordless login or reset flows from the official docs; for lost access use the documented account-recovery steps. If 2FA is enabled and lost, follow the documented 2FA reset / support flow — do not share recovery codes publicly.

Troubleshooting quick checklist

  1. Confirm official URL and browser extensions are disabled.
  2. Try passwordless / email login or wallet reconnect (Solana wallet like Phantom).
  3. Clear cache, try private tab or another device.
  4. For 2FA resets or account recovery, contact official support channels only.
