Solana DEXs execute 208M trades weekly, surpassing NYSE and nearing Nasdaq volumes.

Solana's decentralized exchanges processed over 208 million trades in one week, exceeding the New York Stock Exchange's trade count and reaching about 88% of Nasdaq's weekly trades. This high volume is driven by Solana's fast transaction speeds and minimal fees, enabling both human and automated traders to execute numerous small trades. While the trade count surpasses traditional exchanges, the dollar value per trade on Solana is much lower, often involving small swaps or bot activity. Solana's 24/7 operation and growing tokenized equity market suggest continued growth, though concerns about wash trading and bots remain.

Solana DEXs' record trade volume contrasts with the price and trading patterns of major cryptocurrencies on Pluang. For readers following crypto markets, here is Pluang's snapshot as of Sep 18, 2026 19:01 WIB: out of 50 major cryptocurrencies, 46 rose and 3 fell today. Notably, XTZ gained 8.85% to Rp4.773 with 98% buy orders, EOS rose 8.13% to Rp12.649, and ADA increased 8.02% to Rp3.800 with a 41% sell order share. Typical hold times range from 87 to 126 days, indicating varied investor strategies.
