Solana has achieved a historic milestone, surpassing Ethereum in daily transaction volume and establishing itself as a rising force in the decentralized finance (DeFi) ecosystem. With a record-breaking $70 billion in monthly trading volume, Solana’s growth is impossible to ignore. Over the past three days, the network recorded an impressive $5 billion in daily transactions, underscoring its increasing appeal to both users and investors.
Leading Decentralized Exchanges Power the Growth
According to data from DefiLlama, major decentralized exchanges (DEXs) on the Solana network—Raydium, Orca, and Lifinity—have been the driving forces behind this surge. Raydium recorded a staggering $43 billion in transaction volume over 30 days, positioning itself as the leader. Meanwhile, Orca followed with $11.55 billion, though still short of its all-time high (ATH) of $22.8 billion achieved earlier this year. Lifinity contributed $4.48 billion, securing its spot as the third-largest contributor.
Is $300 the Next Target for Solana?
Weekly trading volumes have shown consistent growth, further emphasizing Solana’s upward trajectory. Raydium saw a 127% increase in weekly activity, climbing to $27.82 billion. Orca experienced a remarkable 140% surge, reaching $7.66 billion, while Lifinity skyrocketed by 214% to hit $3.04 billion. These trends highlight the expanding footprint of the Solana DEX ecosystem and its ability to attract substantial investor interest.

Solana’s Scalability Shines as It Leaves Ethereum Behind
In the last 24 hours, Solana outpaced Ethereum in transaction volume by a significant margin. While Ethereum registered $850 million in activity, Solana hit $6.24 billion, showcasing its scalability and efficiency. Furthermore, Raydium outperformed Ethereum’s leading DEX, Uniswap, with over $4 billion in trading volume.
This impressive performance was bolstered by the popularity of meme coins such as Dogwifhat (WIF) and Bonk (BONK). These tokens have quickly risen in prominence, now ranking among the top 40 cryptocurrencies by market capitalization, and further strengthening Solana’s ecosystem.
A Promising Future for Solana
The surge in transaction volume reflects Solana’s immense growth potential. As user adoption increases, the network’s long-term prospects look brighter than ever. The combination of thriving DEX platforms and the success of meme coins could solidify Solana’s position as a leader in the crypto space.
The Bit Journal anticipates continued interest in Solana as it gains momentum, potentially driving its price higher in the near future. With such significant developments, Solana appears to be on a path to redefine the landscape of decentralized finance.
