Solana’s network activity soared to new heights as its Real Economic Value (REV) — an essential measure of blockchain revenue — reached a record $11.1 million on October 24, likely due to a recent surge in meme coin trading.
Since October 19, Solana’s economic activity has consistently exceeded that of Ethereum, signaling a remarkable market shift. Additionally, DEX bot activity on Solana has drastically increased, with daily trading volumes rising almost 70-fold in two months, from about $30 million in September.
This trading momentum has had a positive effect on SOL, which has seen a 15% increase this week. Furthermore, Solana’s DEX Raydium has recently surpassed Ethereum in daily fees collected, with the fees on Raydium, primarily arising from swap transactions, reflecting the increased activity on the platform.
The current liquidation map indicates a bullish sentiment among SOL traders, exhibiting a greater volume of long positions compared to shorts. While this optimism correlates with Solana’s recent growth, it also presents potential risks if market dynamics change unexpectedly.
