Solana ecosystem-based decentralized exchanges (DEXs) surpassed platforms built on the long-dominant decentralized finance (DeFi) leader Ethereum in trading volume throughout July; this happened for the first time ever. According to DeFiLlama <a href="https://newslinker.co/how-does-artificial-intelligence-work/" target="_blank" rel="noopener" data-wpel-link="exclude">data</a> on DEX volumes across blockchains, Solana outpaced Ethereum in overall trading volume for the month and won the daily process on a total of 17 days last month.

Solana ecosystem protocols held 30% of all crypto DEX volume in July, while Ethereum followed with 28.12%. Notable data showed Solana’s DeFi ecosystem exchanges executed transactions worth $56.849 billion, whereas Ethereum exchanges ended the month with $53.867 billion, marking a difference of over 5%. 
Blockchain infrastructure provider GenesysGo CEO and co-founder Frank Mathis believes this trend stems from Solana positioning itself as the blockchain network for entertainment and users. In recent months, Solana has become the leading address for <a href="https://en.coin-turk.com/pepe-coin-shows-significant-market-activity/" data-wpel-link="internal">memecoin</a> launches due to its lower costs compared to Ethereum. Mathis shared the following statements on the matter: 
<blockquote> 
 “The Solana ecosystem has done a great job of bridging the gap between the developer community and the user community.”

What makes this development particularly noteworthy is that Ethereum has long been the undisputed king of DeFi. The only other instance where Ethereum DEX platforms were surpassed in volume was by the BNB Chain, formerly known as Binance Smart Chain (BSC), in 2021. This occurred amid the BSC memecoin craze and heralded Solana’s recent trading surge. Mathis commented on this topic: 
<blockquote> 
 “Of course, memecoin projects have become the meta of this cycle. Whether this will be good or bad for the broader ecosystem in the long run remains to be seen.” 
 “If this trend continues, I think we will increasingly recognize that the Ethereum ecosystem is at a turning point. The Solana community has done a great job of making people feel like they are part of something bigger than themselves.”
