Solana Surge: From Ecological Explosion to Technological Innovation, Exploring the Rise of the Next Hundred Billion Market
In 2025, Solana rapidly became the focus of the crypto world. From stablecoin supply surpassing ten billion dollars to trading volume exceeding Ethereum, from the Trump token craze to a comprehensive upgrade of its technical architecture, Solana is reshaping the future landscape of blockchain under the banner of 'high-performance public chain.' Below are the core logic of its explosive growth and analysis of future potential:
1. Milestone Breakthrough: The Growth Myth Behind the Data
1. Stablecoin Supply Surpasses Ten Billion
The total supply of stablecoins on the Solana network exceeded 10.8 billion dollars at the beginning of 2025, growing over 110% within just one year, with USDC accounting for 77%, becoming the core pillar of ecological liquidity. This data not only signifies the maturity of its DeFi ecosystem but also drives the surge in demand for the native token SOL.
2. Total Value Locked (TVL) Soars 800%
From January 2024 to January 2025, Solana's TVL skyrocketed from 1.4 billion dollars to 11.98 billion dollars, an increase of nearly 600%, mainly attributed to the launch of the TRUMP token and the explosion of DEX trading volume.
3. Price and Trading Volume Both Hit New Highs
The price of SOL token reached a historic high of 295 dollars in January 2025, then retraced to the 210-dollar range, but market sentiment remains bullish.
2. Growth Engine: Multiple Factors Ignite the Market
1. Trump Token and Meme Craze
The TRUMP token launched by the Trump family sparked a frenzy on Solana, with its market cap soaring to 15 billion dollars within two days and a single-day trading volume exceeding 5.6 billion dollars. This phenomenal project not only attracted hundreds of thousands of new users but also pushed the daily active addresses on the Solana network to over 9 million, with daily transaction fees setting a record of 33 million dollars.
2. Technical Advantages: A Dual Revolution in Speed and Cost
Solana has become the preferred platform for DeFi, GameFi, and Meme projects due to its high throughput (averaging 300 million transactions per day), low latency (sub-second confirmation), and nearly zero transaction costs. Its unique Sealevel parallel processing engine and Firedancer client deployment further optimize network performance.
3. DEX Trading Volume Surpasses Ethereum
In January 2025, Solana's DEX trading volume reached 122 billion dollars, far exceeding Ethereum's 45 billion dollars. The leading DEX Raydium contributed 3.89 billion dollars in TVL, becoming the core driving force of ecological growth.
