Solana Dominates Blockchain Activity with Record $29B Weekly DEX Volume

Solana leads crypto networks with $29B in weekly DEX trades, $8.5M in fees, and 15M active users showing massive growth.

Solana’s unmatched 543M weekly transactions prove its speed and scalability as developers and institutions flood in fast.

With $23M in app revenue and strong ETF inflows, Solana cements its spot as crypto’s most active and valuable ecosystem.

After a hectic week of action that concluded on November 2, 2025, Solana emerged as the undisputed leader in a number of blockchain performance indicators. The network’s dominance in blockchain utility and user engagement was further reinforced by the fact that it recorded the greatest decentralized exchange (DEX) volumes, transactions, and active users in addition to leading in revenue creation.

Solana had the largest economic value of any blockchain during the week, generating $8.5 million in network fees, according to on-chain data and insights posted by vibhu on X. BNB Chain came in third with $7.3 million, while Tron trailed closely after with $8.3 million. Bitcoin lagged with $2.1 million, while Ethereum recorded $5.9 million. These numbers show that network revenue is increasingly concentrated among the best-performing chains.

Solana Leads in Trading and User Activity

Besides revenue, Solana outperformed rivals in decentralized exchange activity, processing $29 billion in weekly spot DEX volume—nearly double Ethereum’s $15.9 billion. Base followed with $11.4 billion, showcasing rapid adoption within the Layer-2 ecosystem. Consequently, total spot DEX volume across all tracked networks reached $56.3 billion, reflecting strong liquidity flow in decentralized markets.

Moreover, Solana’s transaction throughput demonstrated unmatched efficiency. The blockchain processed 543 million transactions in just one week—more than triple all other chains combined. In comparison, Base handled 84 million, Polygon PoS processed 31.7 million, and Ethereum recorded 10.9 million transactions. Such figures reveal Solana’s scalability advantage and network strength during high market activity.
