Solana recently demonstrated strong performance in decentralized exchanges (DEXes), surpassing Ethereum in trading volumes. In the past 24 hours, Solana’s DEXes processed transactions worth $1.148 billion, compared to Ethereum’s $745 million. This substantial lead highlights Solana’s growing appeal, driven by its faster transaction speeds and lower fees. 
Continuing with the <a href="https://www.ethnews.com/solana-outperforms-ethereum-in-dex-volume-despite-recent-market-downturns/">previous ETHNews report</a>, despite Ethereum’s continued dominance in total value locked (TVL) within decentralized finance (DeFi), Solana’s surge in DEX activity suggests potential for catching up.

Solana reported 1.4 million daily active addresses, significantly exceeding Ethereum’s 644,000. Additionally, Solana recorded 42.9 million daily transactions, far surpassing Ethereum’s 1.1 million.

It’s important to note that these figures exclude Ethereum’s Layer-2 solutions like Arbitrum and Optimism, which process transactions off the mainnet while leveraging Ethereum’s security measures. This ongoing activity on Ethereum’s Layer-2s indicates sustained interest in its ecosystem.

However, Solana’s impressive transaction volumes raise questions about long-term sustainability. The surge may be driven in part by speculative trading or meme coins, activities that do not necessarily lead to enduring value creation. The key challenge lies in whether this heightened activity can foster robust DeFi applications and attract established projects.

As we have <a href="https://www.ethnews.com/jupiters-rise-unveiling-the-power-of-solanas-leading-dex-and-jup-token-utility/">described on ETHNews</a> previously, critically, Solana’s architecture, known for its speed and cost-efficiency, has faced criticisms regarding network congestion and occasional outages. Continued disruptions could undermine confidence in Solana, potentially prompting users to seek more reliable alternatives. 
Despite these concerns, both Solana’s SOL token and Ethereum’s ETH token have benefited from recent bullish market sentiment, each rising approximately 6.6% and 3.4%, respectively, within the last 24 hours. 
Solana’s recent performance in DEX trading volumes underscores its potential to challenge Ethereum, according to <a href="https://www.ethnews.com/ethereum-price-prediction-will-eth-hit-3895-or-dip-to-2877-bullish-momentum-signals-breakout-in-near-future/">previous ETHNews reports</a>. However, questions remain about sustainable growth and network reliability. Ethereum’s established ecosystem, supported by Layer-2 scalability solutions, continues its crucial role in decentralized finance.
