Solana led every chain in spot DEX volume over the last 24 hours, 7 days, and 30 days — a look at the trading, staking, and builder activity across the ecosystem in the last day alone.
Solana dominated DEX activity over the past 24 hours, recording 20.7 million trades from 720,000 traders — leading every blockchain in spot DEX volume across the 24-hour, 7-day, and 30-day windows.

What This Means
A 20.7M-trade, 720K-trader day is a genuinely large single-day print for spot DEX activity — and it's arriving alongside real infrastructure progress rather than pure speculation: Sanctum's LST TVL lead, staking climbing to 69% of supply, and a cross-chain bridge and a free AI copilot both shipping the same day. Taken together, it's a snapshot of an ecosystem where trading volume, staking participation, and builder tooling are all moving in the same direction at once.
