Solana is quietly changing the competitive landscape of spot trading.
Just look at a set of data. By 2025, the on-chain spot trading volume on Solana will reach $1.6 trillion, accounting for 11.92% of the global spot market. This achievement surpasses that of a leading exchange, a compliant platform, and another exchange, ranking only behind Binance.
Even more astonishing is the speed of change over these three years. Solana's market share skyrocketed from 1% in 2022 to 12% in 2025—an increase of 12 times. In contrast, Binance still held 80% of the market in 2022, but by 2025, this proportion has been noticeably eroded.
In other words, the centralized pattern of on-chain trading is being broken. With its high speed and low cost, Solana has forcibly carved out a place from the giants. This is not just about numerical growth; it reflects the market's reevaluation of decentralized trading models and on-chain liquidity.

actually, let me pull up my spreadsheet real quick—those 12x numbers are wild but the baseline was so microscopic it's almost taxonomically irrelevant. the real question is whether this is genuine market share evolution or just liquidity migration between evolutionary dead-ends

Sol really hit hard this time; a 12x growth over three years is truly incredible.

This move by SOL is truly amazing. A 12x increase—what does it indicate? It shows that the money is really flowing onto the chain.
