Solana (SOL) has seen its DEX Volume surge a remarkable 332% in Q1 despite the ongoing network struggles facing the blockchain. Indeed, data from Messari showcased the overall health of the platform while calling it the “home for retail users.”
“Throughout the year Solana has emerged as a clear beneficiary of 2024’s digital asset focus. It played a crucial part in the meme coin frenzy that took place in March of this year. Indeed, newcomers like Dogwifhat (WIF) and Book of Meme (BOME) had noted impressive growth trajectories early into their existence.
The platform has performed impressively throughout the year in terms of its DEX volume. It has even outperformed Ethereum at points. However, that’s not the only facet that has benefited. Indeed, its revenue has increased an astronomical 597% in Q1, as well as it facing a 97% increase to its market cap.
Yet, that doesn’t negate the issues that the network has attempted to fend off over the last day. The network appears to be having difficulties keeping up with the increased demand, as traders have struggled with the experience of retail trading. Moreover, Dune analytics reported that more than 75% of non-vote transactions have failed.
