<p>Solana topped all blockchains in 24-hour fee generation, pulling in approximately $1.12 million over the past day, according to the latest on-chain data.</p>
<p>The gap highlights a sharp concentration of user activity and transaction demand on a small group of high-usage networks.</p>
<p>Close behind Solana, EdgeX ranked second, generating just under $1 million in fees, while TRON secured third place with roughly $600,000–$650,000, reinforcing its role as a high-throughput settlement chain.</p>

<p>A second tier followed at a noticeable distance. Hyperliquid posted around $400,000, while BNB Chain and Ethereumclustered in the $300,000–$350,000 range.</p>
<p>Base and Bitcoin trailed further down the list, each generating a smaller but still notable share of daily fees.</p>
<p>The long tail of networks, including Osmosis, Polygon PoS, Dogecoin, Arbitrum, Cronos, Sui, TON, and Avalanche C-Chain, registered comparatively modest fee totals, underscoring how uneven fee generation remains across the crypto ecosystem.</p>
