Grayscale emphasizes the increasing importance of Solana as a core “storage network” for blockchain applications like Raydium and Pump.fun. The Solana ecosystem currently generates about 425 million USD in transaction fees each month, equivalent to over 5 billion USD annually, with an average cost of just 0.02 USD per transaction.
Solana has more than 1,000 full-time developers, ranking second after Ethereum, indicating a strong and expanding ecosystem. Grayscale also reported that the supply of SOL increases by about 4–4.5% each year, while the staking yield reaches around 7%, providing a real return of 2.5–3%. The report notes that if the network growth rate continues to be sustained, the value and price of SOL could increase sustainably over time, reinforcing Solana's position in the blockchain industry.
