Over $200 million bridged to the Solana ecosystem in the last week. Over $100 million was from Ethereum.
Solana has surpassed Ethereum in weekly DEX volume, achieving $34 billion compared to Ethereum’s $23 billion.
Solana offers increased transaction speed, low transaction costs, and high throughput-- processing thousands of transactions per second-- unmatched in the industry.
As DeFi projects built on Solana drain liquidity from Ethereum and other chains, increased institutional interest in Solana is shown.
The blockchain offers low fees, high transaction speeds, and the ability to process a lot of transactions without getting bogged down.
Liquidity influx, smart institutional interest, and Solana's 'not-Ethereum' DEXs volume make it a major player in the crypto ecosystem.
Whether Solana can sustain the furious momentum it amassed since 2021 and continue to outpace Ethereum on key performance indicators such as DEX volume and liquidity is to be seen.
Solana's growth seems unstoppable and has a good shot at continuing its upward momentum over the next several months.
Solana has some serious momentum, and is capable of taking on Ethereum in the DeFi and DEX sectors.
