Raydium übertrifft Ethereum im 24-Stunden-Umsatz: Ein wichtiger Meilenstein für DEX

The Rise of Raydium: A Look at Decentralized Exchange Performance

In a surprising turn of events, decentralized exchange (DEX) Raydium has outshone Ethereum in revenue generation over a 24-hour period, as detailed in reports by Cointelegraph and DefiLlama. On October 21, Raydium, operating on the Solana blockchain, recorded an impressive $3.4 million in fee revenue, narrowly surpassing Ethereum's $3.35 million earnings.

Ethereum's Recovery Phase

Ethereum has seen a reduction in its revenue, partly due to the significant updates it went through in March, known as the Dencun upgrade. This upgrade drastically decreased transaction fees—by nearly 95%—significantly impacting its revenue stream. While Ethereum remains a leading player in the blockchain space, occasionally, it finds itself falling behind emerging protocols like Raydium.

Raydium: A Key Player in Solana

Raydium is not just any decentralized exchange; it stands out as the most popular and liquid DEX on the Solana network, with a total value locked (TVL) of approximately $1.8 billion, as reported by DefiLlama. On the same day that Raydium surged ahead of Ethereum, Solana's overall revenue was about $2.67 million, closely following Ethereum's performance.

The Memecoin Factor

Interestingly, this isn't the first instance of Solana-based platforms outpacing Ethereum. A notable example was Solana's memecoin creation tool, Pump.fun, which also achieved greater revenue than Ethereum on July 29, with Pump.fun hitting an all-time high of nearly $2 million. On June 30, this platform recorded $1.91 million, outstripping Ethereum's earnings during that period.

Long-Term View of Ethereum's Revenue

Despite the challenges in recent months, Ethereum has a proven track record. Since its inception in 2015, the network has amassed $3 billion in transaction fees as denominated in Ether (ETH). Additional value accrual mechanisms are in place for Ether, including the burning of transaction fees and the issuance of new ETH as rewards for stakers who provide collateral to secure the network.

Conclusion

The competition between decentralized exchanges and blockchain protocols continues to heat up, with emerging platforms like Raydium gaining significant traction. As the DeFi landscape evolves, it remains essential for users and investors to stay informed about the latest trends and performance metrics to navigate this rapidly changing environment.
