Solana tops REV charts, driven by Jito and surging blockchain demand.
TVL hits $9 billion, with stablecoin supply and institutional interest climbing fast.
Analysts predict Solana could rival Bitcoin in corporate treasury adoption.
Solana Network is sprinting past the competition. Numbers prove the network isn’t slowing down. With explosive growth in DEX volume, Real Economic Value (REV), and Total Value Locked (TVL), Solana continues to flex dominance in 2025. Helius dropped fresh data, and the stats speak volumes. No outages. Blazing-fast transactions. Institutions are taking notice. Analysts now consider Solana a serious contender for corporate treasuries. Let’s break down what’s powering this unstoppable blockchain engine.

The Helius report confirmed Solana has led all blockchains in REV since October 2024. In January 2025 alone, the network generated $551 million in REV, with a single-day high of $56.8 million. That figure even surpassed the combined daily REV of Bitcoin and Ethereum, showing just how much activity Solana processed. A major driver behind this growth was Jito, a staking protocol responsible for 42% to 66% of Solana’s monthly REV. Users paid hefty premiums for faster execution, proving strong demand for Maximum Extractable Value (MEV) without inflating transaction costs.
Solana Blockchain also maintained its unmatched network speed. It can process up to 162 million transactions daily with average slot times around 390 milliseconds. Remarkably, the network has experienced zero downtime since February 2024. That level of reliability and scale sets Solana apart from most competitors. Soon, the Alpenglow consensus upgrade could drop finality to 100 milliseconds. This update, still in testing, would lower validator breakeven costs to about $75,000—another incentive for newcomers.
Institutional Interest Grows as Analysts Predict Big Moves
Solana’s TVL performance is just as impressive. It ranked second only to Ethereum, averaging between $8 billion and $9 billion in H1 2025. This came alongside an 18% quarter-over-quarter increase. Stablecoins also surged on the network, growing from $1.5 billion to $11.7 billion in just 18 months. Circle alone minted $1.75 billion worth of USDC on Solana in May, reflecting strong ecosystem demand. Cantor Fitzgerald analysts now view Solana as a serious candidate for corporate treasury holdings. They highlighted Solana’s yield opportunities, capital efficiency, and staking power.
Unlike Bitcoin, which offers no native yield, Solana lets companies generate returns without issuing new shares or diluting existing ones. That gives Solana a practical edge for public firms. Institutional adoption is already in motion. Byreal, a joint venture between Bybit and Solana, recently launched as a new product. More collaborations like this suggest growing trust from major players. As infrastructure expands and reliability stays strong, expect more firms to take notice.
Despite this strong growth, Solana’s price has yet to fully reflect the momentum. At press time, SOL traded at $155.37, up 4.06% over the past 24 hours. With rising metrics and deepening institutional interest, the market may soon reprice accordingly. Solana leads in DEX volume, REV, and institutional adoption. Network performance stays unmatched, with no downtime and blazing speed. Corporate demand may push SOL into treasury reserves. All eyes now turn to price, waiting for it to follow fundamentals.
