Strength in the Solana ecosystem

According to Nansen AI, a data analytics firm, the number of transactions on Solana increased. The network hosted one of the most diverse dApp ecosystems, despite being a non-EVM blockchain. This was possible due to the blockchain

‘s low transaction fees.

Owing to these factors, daily transactions on Solana remained over 200 million.

 

Popular dApps such as Magic Eden and Saber could also be responsible for the growth of the Solana ecosystem. Both of them witnessed an uptick of 38% and 29.13% in terms of unique active wallets, respectively.

However, in terms of on-chain metrics, the network’s development activity declined massively.

Still, a long way to go

Well, despite the declining development activity, Solana made integrations with Binance Custody, which allowed SOL investors to put their holdings into cold storage. After the collapse of FTX, this move could help restore faith in the network.

However, Solana still had a long way to go, as its volume declined from 278 to 173 million over the last week.
