Solana's ecosystem delivered impressive performance metrics throughout 2025. The network's applications raked in $2.39 billion in total revenue, marking a robust 46% year-over-year surge. Revenue (REV) specifically hit $1.4 billion, while decentralized exchanges recorded a staggering $1.5 trillion in trading volume—up 57% from the prior year.

On the technical front, Solana processed 33 billion non-voting transactions with an average throughput of 1,054 TPS. Daily active wallet addresses reached 3.2 million, reflecting steady user growth across the ecosystem.

What's particularly striking is how Solana's fundamental metrics are increasingly decoupled from SOL token price movements. The divergence signals that ecosystem development and user activity are accelerating independently, driven by genuine network utility rather than pure price speculation. This maturation phase suggests deeper, more sustainable growth patterns for the blockchain.
