Solana continued to lead Layer 1 and Layer 2 networks in weekly decentralized-exchange volume while recording a milestone in trade count. Blockworks data showed more than $19.7 billion in weekly DEX volume, or 38% of onchain market share, and Solana DEXs processed 208 million trades during September 14–20, compared with 189 million at the NYSE. The comparison, published September 21 by Vibhu Norby using Blockworks Research data, was the first confirmed instance of a blockchain network exceeding a major traditional stock exchange in weekly trade count, although Nasdaq remained ahead at roughly 313 million trades. Memecoin activity restored Solana’s share of that market to 78%, while Pump.fun generated approximately 118 million trades, or about 57% of Solana’s total. Stonk generated more than $5 million in seven-day revenue, briefly surpassed pump.fun in daily revenue and ranked third among Solana applications. Solana’s trade count includes small swaps across memecoins, stablecoins, tokenized equities and DeFi, so it is not comparable with traditional-market dollar volume; its continuous operation and low fees also enable activity outside U.S. market hours.
