Over the past two days, various accounts linked to the Solana Ecosystem have published data indicating it as the most profitable network in the cryptocurrency market.
According to these reports, Solana will have Leading income rankings for 23 consecutive weeksoutperforms the other layers of Layer 1 (L1) and Layer 2 (L2).
However, by spreading the information omitted to mention its direct competitor, high lipids. The data is not only the latter in that contest; Networks that generate more income.
One of the reports that the Solana account released based on Blockworks figures showed the following rankings for the week of August 18th:
- Solana: $15.94 million.
- Tron: $14.57 million.
- Ethereum: $11.29 million.
- BNB Chain: $2.94 million.
- Bitcoin: $2.48 million.
Another analytics site in that ecosystem has issued the same information.
However, the same source used in that report, BlockWorks, shows that high lipids produced nearly $28 million over the same weekly period. Almost twice as many as 16 million people due to Solana, As you can see in the following image:
High fat from the previous week, August 11th to 17th He also pushed Solana to second place.. In that case, the figure is about $7 million, according to BlockWorks.
metric «Chain revenue» (Chain Revenue) Quantify income captured by network or token owners.
As explained in the Artemis Analytics Platform, measurements include the cumulative value of the protocol or token holder (USD). This includes token burns, income going to protocol treasures or other similar mechanisms».
In this way, Chain revenue It reflects the amount of capital that effectively generates networks from economic activity, either through fees paid by users or internal value capture mechanisms.
In that context, other analytical platforms confirm the superiority of high lipids and show even greater differences.
For example, Artemis places high lipids In front of all networks for the past few months.
That chain was registered in July $90 million in revenuewith around 80 million Trons and 25 million Ethereum. According to Artemis, Solana has only 5 million people, which is significantly different from the metrics presented by BlockWorks.
This trend is repeated when reviewing previous month’s records. This is the only exception for January 2025 when Solana was able to overcome the other networks mentioned. therefore, That’s not possible “Solana has been leading for 23 consecutive weeks.”
The numbers exposed by Artemis are backed by Defilama.
Analysis of various sources such as Blockworks, Artemis, and Defillama confirms the same trend, although some measurements vary in magnitude. Currently, it is integrated as the most profitable network in terms of revenue.in contrast to the stories that spread from sectors related to Solana.
