The Solana-based Backpack crypto exchange reached the $300 million mark in less than 24 hours after the beginning of its pre-season beta launch, <a href="https://twitter.com/Backpack/status/1757901705277243574" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">according</a> to a Feb. 15 <a href="https://twitter.com/Backpack/status/1757901705277243574" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow"></a>X&nbsp;post by Backpack. The exchange was launched by the creators of Solana’s Mad Lads executable nonfungible token (NFT) collection.

 24 hours into the Backpack Pre Season. Over $300 MILION in trading volume. It has begun.— Backpack (@Backpack) <a href="https://twitter.com/Backpack/status/1757901705277243574?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">February 14, 2024</a>

The popularity of the exchange is partly due to the Backpack ecosystem’s record-breaking Mad Lads xNFT collection and the potential of its underlying Solana blockchain, according to Anndy Lian, intergovernmental blockchain expert and author of the book NFT: From Zero to Hero. He told Cointelegraph:
<blockquote data-ct-non-breakable="true">
 “Backpack Exchange leverages the Solana blockchain, one of the fastest and most scalable platforms for decentralized applications […] Solana is also seen as a potential contender for the future of decentralized finance, or DeFi, which is a fast-growing sector of the crypto industry.”
