Apps on the Solana blockchain hit record fees and revenues in the last 24 hours, driven by a surge in activity amid a new wave of meme coin mania following Donald Trump’s election win.
Five out of the top 10 protocols in terms of fees in the last 24 hours were on Solana, according to a Nov. 18 <a href="https://x.com/Dynamo_Patrick/status/1858231122456351215" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">post</a> on X by Patrick Scott, who cited data from DefiLlama.
The <a href="https://www.coingecko.com/en/categories/meme-token" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">meme coin sector surged</a> another 3.5% to hit a market capitalization of $126 billion in the past day, adding to turbocharged gains last week.

 Raydium is generating $219MM of annualized protocol revenue. Right now the market is mostly taking a barbell approach (majors and AI/memes) but when the fundamentals/growth are so wild like this it can't be ignored. Just needed a SOL breakout for liftoff. Already up 26% today <a href="https://t.co/sKAXegYo9o" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">pic.twitter.com/sKAXegYo9o</a>
