Ethereum Reclaims DEX Throne: Overtakes Solana in Trading Volume

Ethereum reclaimed the leadership in decentralized exchange (DEX) trading on blockchain for the first time since September 2024, over Solana. In the last week, Ethereum DEX trading increased to around $24.7 billion, up by 47.58%, with Uniswap dominating most of the activity at a value of almost $17.46 billion.

Solana, which had been topping DEX volumes, declined from its highs with its trading volume falling to around $52 billion. While Solana's leading DEX, Raydium, posted a huge weekly increase of 236%, it failed to keep Solana at number one.

This leadership shift is occurring amid changing market dynamics and investor sentiment. While Solana has been expanding remarkably due to its speed and fee-less nature, Ethereum's mature ecosystem and liquidity are still a significant attraction for trading activity. As per experts, Ethereum's strong infrastructure and ongoing upgrades will make it more attractive in the DeFi space, while Solana has to contend with decentralization and stability issues in liquidity to stay competitive
