#SolanaSurge
Solana ($SOL) experienced a powerful surge in Q1 2025, solidifying its position as a top-tier blockchain platform and a serious contender in the Layer 1 space.
Key Drivers Behind the Surge
Massive On-Chain Activity: Daily active users on Solana surpassed 1.2 million, thanks to explosive growth in DeFi protocols, NFTs, and especially meme coins like WIF and BONK.
Blazing Speed and Low Fees: Solana’s high throughput and low transaction costs continued to attract both developers and users fleeing congestion on Ethereum and other L1s.
Solana Mobile Momentum: The launch of the Solana Saga 2 smartphone created major buzz, helping onboard new users and giving crypto-native features a broader reach.
