Solana DeFi Soars: $10B TVL Milestone & SOL Targets $300

With a sharp SOL token rally, high trading volumes on decentralized exchanges, and large inflows from both cross-chain bridges and institutional investors, Solana's DeFi Total Value Locked (TVL) has climbed past $10 billion for the first time since January 2025, reaching a six-month high. Driven by corporate treasury actions, $180 million coming from other blockchains, and renewed retail as well as institutional activity, the rise in TVL has placed Solana as the second-largest DeFi network after Ethereum, so showing growing consumer trust and network expansion. Fueled by memecoin releases and ongoing development, this milestone shows increasing engagement throughout the ecosystem; strong market attitude and network effects indicate more upside if current trends continue
