Solana's Impressive Transaction Volume Underscores Its Potential to Rival Ethereum
Jan 24, 2025 at 05:45 am
Over the past three months, Solana has eclipsed Ethereum in several key metrics, as it makes it claim to be the no.1 altcoin chain.

Solana’s popularity has surged in recent months, with the blockchain outpacing Ethereum in several key metrics. According to Dune Analytics data, Solana has generated 5.053 billion transactions with decentralized exchange (dex) transaction volume reaching $1.9 trillion. In contrast, Ethereum generated 1.138 billion transactions within the same period with dex transaction volume reaching $504.83 billion.
On Solana, the number of active addresses grew to 344 million, five times more than the number of active addresses on Ethereum which stood at 82.56 million. Ethereum’s metrics also include data from its Layer 2 chains, Arbitrum, OP Mainnet, Base, ZORA, Scroll, Polygon zkEVM, zkSync Era, Celo, and Linea.
However, Ethereum continues to lead in the total value locked (TVL) category, according to data from Defillama. Ethereum’s TVL currently stands at $64.47 billion while Solana‘s TVL is $11.38 billion.
In Nov. 2024, a Bitcoin.com News piece predicted the possibility of Solana outpacing Ethereum, due to its speed and affordability. It would seem as though Solana could be charging into the lead, based on the current metrics along with the speculation on the imminent approval of a Solana ETF
