+## Time-Weighted Average Price (TWAP)
+
+Pyth also provides Time-Weighted Average Price (TWAP) for Solana applications. TWAP represents the average price over a specified time window, which can be useful for reducing the impact of short-term price volatility.
+
+<Callout type="warning" emoji="⚠️">
+  The TWAP window is currently limited to a maximum of 10 minutes (600 seconds).
+</Callout>
+
+### Using TWAP in Solana Programs
+
+To use TWAP in your Solana program, import the `TwapUpdate` struct from the Pyth Solana receiver SDK:
+
+```rust copy
+use pyth_solana_receiver_sdk::price_update::{TwapUpdate};
+
+#[derive(Accounts)]
+#[instruction(amount_in_usd : u64, twap_window_seconds: u64)]
+pub struct SampleWithTwap<'info> {
+    #[account(mut)]
+    pub payer: Signer<'info>,
+    // Add this account to any instruction Context that needs TWAP data
+    pub twap_update: Account<'info, TwapUpdate>,
+}
+```
+
+Update your instruction logic to read the TWAP from the update account:
+
+```rust copy
+pub fn sample_with_twap(
+    ctx: Context<SampleWithTwap>,
+    amount_in_usd: u64,
+    twap_window_seconds: u64,
+) -> Result<()> {
+    let twap_update = &mut ctx.accounts.twap_update;
+    // get_twap_no_older_than will fail if the price update is more than 30 seconds old
+    let maximum_age: u64 = 30;
+    // Specify the price feed ID and the window in seconds for the TWAP
+    let feed_id: [u8; 32] = get_feed_id_from_hex("0xe62df6c8b4a85fe1a67db44dc12de5db330f7ac66b72dc658afedf0f4a415b43")?;
+    let price = twap_update.get_twap_no_older_than(
+        &Clock::get()?,
+        maximum_age,
+        twap_window_seconds,
+        &feed_id,
+    )?;
+    
+    // Sample output:
+    // The TWAP price is (7160106530699 ± 5129162301) * 10^-8
+    msg!("The TWAP price is ({} ± {}) * 10^{}", price.price, price.conf, price.exponent);
+
+    Ok(())
+}
+```
+
+### Fetching and Posting TWAP Updates
+
+To use TWAP updates in your application, you need to fetch them from Hermes and post them to Solana:
+
+#### Fetch TWAP updates from Hermes
+
+Use `HermesClient` from `@pythnetwork/hermes-client` to fetch TWAP updates:
+
+```typescript copy
+import { HermesClient } from "@pythnetwork/hermes-client";
+
+// The URL below is a public Hermes instance operated by the Pyth Data Association.
+// Hermes is also available from several third-party providers listed here:
+// https://docs.pyth.network/price-feeds/api-instances-and-providers/hermes
+const hermesClient = new HermesClient(
+  "https://hermes.pyth.network/",
+  {}
+);
+
+// Specify the price feed ID and the TWAP window in seconds (maximum 600 seconds)
+const twapWindowSeconds = 300; // 5 minutes
+const twapUpdateData = await hermesClient.getLatestTwaps(
+  ["0xe62df6c8b4a85fe1a67db44dc12de5db330f7ac66b72dc658afedf0f4a415b43"], // BTC/USD feed ID
+  twapWindowSeconds, 
+  { encoding: "base64" }
+);
+
+// TWAP updates are strings of base64-encoded binary data
+console.log(twapUpdateData.binary.data);
+```
+
+#### Post TWAP updates to Solana
+
+Use `PythSolanaReceiver` to post the TWAP updates and consume them in your application:
+
+```typescript copy
+import { PythSolanaReceiver } from "@pythnetwork/pyth-solana-receiver";
+
+// You will need a Connection from @solana/web3.js and a Wallet from @coral-xyz/anchor
+const connection: Connection;
+const wallet: Wallet;
+const pythSolanaReceiver = new PythSolanaReceiver({ connection, wallet });
+
+// Create a transaction builder
+const transactionBuilder = pythSolanaReceiver.newTransactionBuilder({
+  closeUpdateAccounts: false,
+});
+
+// Add the TWAP update to the transaction
+await transactionBuilder.addPostTwapUpdates(twapUpdateData.binary.data);
+
+// Add your application's instructions that use the TWAP update
+await transactionBuilder.addTwapConsumerInstructions(
+  async (
+    getTwapUpdateAccount: (priceFeedId: string) => PublicKey
+  ): Promise<InstructionWithEphemeralSigners[]> => {
+    // Generate instructions here that use the TWAP updates posted above
+    // getTwapUpdateAccount(<price feed id>) will give you the account for each TWAP update
+    return []; // Replace with your actual instructions
+  }
+);
+
+// Send the instructions
+await pythSolanaReceiver.provider.sendAll(
+  await transactionBuilder.buildVersionedTransactions({
+    computeUnitPriceMicroLamports: 50000,
+  }),
+  { skipPreflight: true }
+);
+```
+
+### Example Application
+
+The [Solana TWAP example](https://github.com/pyth-network/pyth-examples/tree/main/price_feeds/solana/send_usd) demonstrates how to fetch TWAP data from Hermes, post it to Solana, and consume it from a smart contract. The example includes:
+
+- A React frontend for interacting with the contract
+- A Solana program that consumes TWAP updates
+- Complete transaction building for posting and consuming TWAP data
+
+The example allows users to send a USD-denominated amount of SOL using either spot prices or TWAP prices, demonstrating how TWAP can be used to reduce the impact of price volatility.
