Solana Surpasses $1 Trillion in DEX Volume, Founder Reacts to Underestimated Viral Tweet
Solana’s DeFi ecosystem quietly hits a trillion-dollar milestone in 2025 — and it’s only June.
Solana (SOL) just reached a jaw-dropping achievement that cements its place in crypto history. According to new data, Solana-based decentralized exchanges (DEXes) have already processed over $1 trillion in trading volume in 2025 — and the year isn’t even halfway over.
It all started with a viral tweet claiming Solana had reached $900 billion in DEX activity. The post prompted a simple, stunned emoji reply from Solana cofounder Anatoly "Toly" Yakovenko — but as it turns out, the tweet actually lowballed the milestone.
According to Top Ledger, Solana's real DEX trading volume sits at $1,003,458,537,544 — placing it squarely in the trillion-dollar club, not as a projection but as verified settled trades.
Solana Outpaces Ethereum in DEX Market Share
As of June 6, data from DefiLlama shows Solana holds a 26.12% share of the global DEX market, inching ahead of Ethereum’s 25.93%, and trailing only Binance Smart Chain’s 47.95%. Solana’s growing share illustrates its expanding influence in decentralized finance, with volume consistently climbing throughout Q1 before leveling out in Q2.
January was particularly explosive for Solana’s DEX landscape, delivering the momentum that carried into the current surge.
Top Protocols Powering the Surge
The growth isn’t just market noise — it’s being driven by high-performing platforms with deep liquidity and active users. Per DefiLlama, the top Solana-based DEXes over the last 30 days are:
-
Raydium – $27.6 billion
-
Orca – $19.7 billion
-
Meteora – $18.5 billion
-
Pump – $16.1 billion
These protocols aren't just riding hype — they’re proving Solana’s DeFi is maturing fast, offering fast execution and competitive user experiences.
The Bottom Line
While crypto Twitter celebrated the $900 billion headline, the real story is bigger: Solana has already surpassed $1 trillion in DEX volume in 2025, solidifying its position not as a competitor to Ethereum — but as a co-leader in the evolving decentralized economy.
