We just made our @Solana dashboard available to everyone 🔥

Let this be your one-stop shop for all things Solana data. Track TEV stats, validator and staker cash flow, transaction activity/segmentation, and more!

Let's take a look at the highlights 👇 Image
This dashboard was made available in collaboration with the @SolanaFndn. You can check it out using the link below!

solana.blockworksresearch.com
TEV tracks the total amount of top-line fee generation for a blockchain, via both in-protocol transaction fees and out-of-protocol tips. Thus it tracks users' willingness to pay for state and blockspace.

Solana TEV erupted higher in 2024, currently sitting at $9m/week. Image
Source of TEV: Priority fees and Jito tips currently drive ~85% of TEV as users compete on execution speed.

Use of TEV: The Burn, Validators, and Stakers see roughly equal shares of TEV. SIMD-0096 will soon decrease the burn and increase Validator's share of TEV.

Image
We also zoom in on the cash flow to validators and stakers, breaking down where the value is derived. The table below also accounts for emissions, unlike TEV.

Note that validator commissions are currently estimated using the stake-weighted average commission rates. Image
Using the Onchain Activity tab, you will see metrics that analyze transaction level metrics.

As an example, we segment addresses by the number of txs sent per day to isolate bots (>5000). We see that bots have a 25x higher revert rate than addresses that send 1-5 tx/day. Image
We also see a meaningful gap in median fee between these two groups, suggesting that bots are more sophisticated and capable of paying a lower median fee & addresses in the 1-5 group are less sensitive to fees. Image
Solana transactions are constructed with a series of "instruction" calls to onchain programs/smart contracts. Our dashboard tracks the compute unit (CU) consumed and fees generated by these instructions.

We track consumption based on outer instruction calls only. Image
We will continue developing this dashboard over the coming weeks. You will soon see fresh tracking of:

- Enhanced Stablecoin metrics
- Staking and supply data
- Detailed DEX breakdown
- Network health tracking

Let us know if there's anything you want to see! We will build it.
The dashboard can be accessed below, check it out!

1/ Meta-aggregators are making the Solana swapping landscape more competitive, improving price execution for users.

Let's dive into this under-discussed sector 🧵 Image
2/ Meta-aggregators like @Titan_Exchange route trades through third-party aggregators such as Jupiter, OKX, and DFlow, as well as off-chain sources like Pyth's Express Relay.

Titan has also developed a proprietary routing algorithm, Talos, registering over $35M in weekly volume. Image
3/ In April, @KaminoFinance released a meta-aggregator to complement its limit order product.

In recent weeks, OKX has won an increasing share of volume initiated through Kamino Swap.

1/ DATA UPDATE: We're excited to release Hyperliquid as the newest dashboard on @blockworksres.

Built by @0xSharples, the dashboard currently covers Hyperliquid's trading platform, spot trading, and futures trading on HyperCore, as well as a financials section that encompasses both the HyperCore and HyperEVM.Image
2/ Total revenue has been consistent on Hyperliquid. With the HyperEVM gaining traction recently, it provides HYPE token holders another source of revenue.

Currently, Hyperliquid is on pace to make $600 million in token holder revenue this year. Image
3/ Almost all of the revenue from Hyperliquid's trading platfrom is from Perps trading. Currently about 3% is derived from spot trading. Image

1/ We just released an updated version of our Solana DEX Activity dashboard!

We now cover information on Bitcoin trading on Solana, FX trading, memecoin launches, and various other DEX data.

Here are the main takeaways. Image
2/ SolFi and Pump (Pumpfun and Pumpswap) have increased their volume market share in 2025, but Raydium is still the largest DEX by % of volume. Image
3/ The percentage of volume going through DEX aggregators has decreased since the launch of Pumpfun and other bonding curve DEXs.

About 60% of all DEX volume was routed through Jupiter in early 2024 but this is down to 30% in 2025. Image

1/ Hyperliquid's HIP-3 proposal outlines its evolution towards a foundational liquidity infrastructure platform, enabling permissionless creation of Hypercore perpetual markets by third-party builders.

Learn more about its impact on revenue, builders, and Hyperliquid's vision: Image
2/ HIP-3 builds on:

HIP-1: Enabled permissionless spot market creation. Developers launched spot tokens on a HyperCore order book, winning "ticker rights" in 31-hour Dutch auctions (USDC bids, cumulative $20M revenue total to Assistance Fund).

HIP-2: Complemented HIP-1 by allowing deployers to bootstrap an automated market maker strategy (Hyperliquidity) for new spot tokens, providing embedded liquidity at issuance.Image
3/ HIP-3 extends the auction model to perpetual futures, allowing builders to permissionlessly create dedicated HyperCore order books for any asset with an oracle. Winning a 31-hour Dutch auction (bids in HYPE, creating a deflationary sink) grants a one-block window to deploy.

The deployer then defines contract specifications (quote/base asset), the oracle-updater, collateral token, margin tiers, funding frequency, and an optional extra fee up to 50%. For security, a 1M HYPE stake is required which can be slashed.

1/ Launchpads have been a hot topic in recent weeks with many new projects coming to market.

@Pumpdotfun's success and dominance of the category over the past year serves as motivation for other teams to compete for a slice of the pie.

So what's happening with launchpads?🧵 Image
2/ At the top, Pumpfun dominates the launchpad market with over 200k launched tokens per week and a graduation rate climbing towards 2%.

Token creation has declined 50% since January, but has grown by more than 100% since the summer of 2024. Image
3/ @RaydiumProtocol punched back at Pump's native DEX offering with their own native launchpad - LaunchLab.

Activity was minimal up until the recent @bonk_fun variant launched.

LaunchLab enables teams to spin up branded versions of the launchpad product. Image

1/ With over $3B in liquidity, @pendle_fi dominates the vertical in which it operates. Tailwinds are present for growing Pendle’s utilization, distribution, and revenue.

- PTs coming to @aave
- Permissionless listings
- YT take rate from 3% to 5%
- Boros upgrade

🧵 Image
2/ Pendle's PTs can make for highly attractive collaterals on money markets.

Particularly for carry trades, the fixed yield offered by PTs can reduce the variance and uncertainty in the realized yield on the long leg of these strategies.

Historically, @MorphoLabs has won the lion's share of lending against these instruments, given permissionless vault creation.Image
3/ However, Aave recently passed an ARFC approving the listing of PTs on the main market, beginning with USDe and sUSDe PTs.

As eligible collateral on the largest money market offering a demand venue for growing utilization of the instruments, Pendle's PTs can benefit from broader distribution and utility.
