Solana устанавливает новые рекорды, опережая Ethereum в области годовых доходов от комиссий Translation: Solana Sets New Records, Surpassing Ethereum in Annual Fee Revenue

In the past year, the revenue generated by the Solana network amounted to $2.85 billion. According to a report by 21Shares, the primary source of this income stemmed from trading platforms.

From October 2024 to September 2025, the average monthly revenue reached $240 million. In January, amidst a surge in meme coins, the figure peaked at $616 million. Following the hype’s decline, monthly earnings stabilized between $150 million and $250 million.

The main contributor to this growth was trading platforms, which accounted for 39% of total revenue, equating to $1.12 billion. Funds flowed in from various ecosystem sectors, including DeFi, meme coins, AI applications, decentralized exchanges, and DePIN.

Analysts also highlighted that Solana significantly outpaces Ethereum at a comparable stage of development. Five years post-launch, the monthly revenue of the «DeFi flagship» did not exceed $10 million, while the current figures for the «people’s cryptocurrency» are 20 to 30 times higher.

The network’s efficiency and low fees have attracted between 1.2 and 1.5 million active addresses daily, which is approximately three times more than Ethereum during a similar lifecycle period.

Several public companies have transformed into treasuries based on Solana, resulting in their holdings reflecting around $4 billion in SOL.

A total of 18 tracked organizations store 17.8 million SOL, with the largest holders being Forward Industries (6.8 million SOL) and Sharps Technology (2.1 million SOL).

In October, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission is set to review multiple applications for spot Solana ETFs from companies such as Fidelity, VanEck, and Grayscale, among others.

The recent suspension of the U.S. government may delay decision-making.

However, participants in Polymarket assess the likelihood of SOL-ETF approval by the end of the year at 99%.

It is worth noting that Forward Industries plans to sell shares worth $4 billion to acquire the «people’s cryptocurrency.»
