Summary
Solana's decentralized finance (DeFi) activity has surged, with its decentralized exchanges (DEX) achieving over $100 billion in monthly trading volume, surpassing Ethereum's $61.61 billion. Solana's DEX volume increased over 100% from October's $52.5 billion. The total value locked (TVL) in Solana's DeFi ecosystem rose to $9.30 billion from $6.23 billion. Factors contributing to this growth include low transaction fees and a user-friendly interface. Solana's market cap is approximately $118.34 billion, with its native token SOL reaching an all-time high of $263, up 157% year-to-date. Analysts predict further gains, with potential targets of $400 due to bullish market conditions and the possibility of a Solana ETF.
