Solana isn’t trending.
But it’s quietly putting up the strongest numbers in the entire market.
Real usage. Institutional traction. And now, Wall Street exposure.
Here’s what most are missing on $SOL
( a thread )
In June, @Solana handled 2.3 billion transactions.
July is already ahead.
Why does this matter?
Because transactions = usage = value accrual.

@tokenterminal It’s also getting chosen for real-world infrastructure.
@Fiserv, a $96 billion fintech giant, is launching its new USD stablecoin (FIUSD) directly on Solana.

Solana had $615B in trading volume in the last 6 months.
That’s more than most alt-L1s have done ever.
It means users are trading, builders are shipping, and capital is flowing into the ecosystem.
This is how a chain becomes an economy.

@tokenterminal @solana Dapps generated $2.36 billion in revenue in Q1 2025.
Call it Solana’s GDP. And it’s accelerating.

Solana’s not just winning retail; it’s onboarding institutions.
@Bullish is moving custody and trading infrastructure onto Solana using native stablecoins.

@solana @ThomasFarley The first US-listed Solana Staking ETF $SSK is live.
Launched by REX Shares, it gives traditional investors price exposure and onchain staking yield — 100% of rewards go back to shareholders.
Wall Street just got a native $SOL yield product.
The ticker is $SSK The asset is $SOL
Last week, @REXShares & @OspreyFunds racked up some early mover milestones, becoming the 1st US based ETF to give investors access to:
- Solana exposure
- Active asset staking
- 100% of staking rewards (paid monthly)
We're tracking this one closely
Performance, inflows, and what it means for other staking assets

Solana’s been online 100% of the time for over 16 months.
Since the February 2024 outage, Solana has processed approximately 24.46 billion transactions without downtime.
The infrastructure is doing what it’s supposed to.

But under the surface, something bigger is brewing.
This clip says what most people aren’t ready to admit.
