Solana captures 81% of trading-terminal volume, reaching 17-week high
Solana’s share of weekly trading-terminal activity climbed to 81%, highlighting the network’s continued dominance among fast-moving retail traders and memecoin participants.

Solana accounted for 81% of weekly trading-terminal volume across all blockchains last week, its highest share in 17 weeks, according to data from tehcscreener shared by SolanaFloor on Wednesday. The figure underscores Solana’s strength among active on-chain traders, particularly users seeking rapid execution and frequent memecoin trades.
Solana takes the lead in terminal activity
Trading terminals and automated trading bots route transactions through decentralized exchanges across multiple networks. The latest data indicates that Solana captured the overwhelming majority of this specialized trading flow during the week measured.
The 81% figure does not represent Solana’s share of total decentralized-exchange volume across the entire crypto market. Instead, it measures activity generated through trading-terminal platforms, making it a narrower indicator of retail trading behavior and high-frequency on-chain participation.
Solana’s leading position in this segment suggests that traders using terminals are continuing to favor the network’s trading environment. Platforms such as Axiom and GMGN are among the terminals used by this audience, which often prioritizes speed and access to newly launched or highly volatile tokens.
Why terminals matter
Trading terminals appeal to users who want a more streamlined interface than a conventional decentralized-exchange application. Their customers frequently include high-frequency traders and memecoin participants, whose activity can shift quickly as liquidity and attention move between tokens.
The data therefore offers a view into a specific but influential part of on-chain retail activity:
- 81% of weekly trading-terminal volume was attributed to Solana.
- The share marked Solana’s highest level in 17 weeks.
- The measurement covers terminal and bot activity across chains, rather than total DEX volume.
- The user base is weighted toward fast retail trading and memecoin speculation.
CoinGecko data cited in the report showed SOL with a market capitalization of $60.6 billion, $2.7 billion in 24-hour trading volume and a circulating supply of 589.9 million SOL as of Oct. 28 at 5:58 p.m. EDT. SOL was also reported up 1.4% in the cited market snapshot.
What This Means
Solana’s record share of trading-terminal volume points to sustained relevance in the part of crypto markets driven by speed, speculation and rapid token rotation. It may also reinforce the network’s appeal to retail traders who rely on automated tools and decentralized exchanges.
However, the metric should not be treated as a complete measure of Solana’s overall market share. Because terminals attract a concentrated audience of high-frequency and memecoin traders, the result reflects strength in that segment rather than the full breadth of decentralized-finance activity. Even so, maintaining an 81% share gives Solana a significant lead in a channel closely tied to short-term retail engagement.
