During the third quarter, 29 Solana-based decentralized applications (DApps) raised a cumulative $173 million, marking a more than 54% increase compared to the previous quarter.

The report follows Solana surpassing Ethereum in daily fees, generating over $2.54 million in fees on Oct. 28, compared to Ethereum’s $2.07 million, Cointelegraph reported.

Solana is among the leading layer-1 blockchains, often touted as an “Ethereum killer” for its monolithic scaling approach, which aims to enhance transaction throughput and reduce fees without relying on layer-2 blockchains.

Institutions are driving tokenization growth on Solana

By the end of the third quarter, Solana was the third-largest blockchain by tokenized treasuries, thanks to continued institutional growth.

A total of $123 million worth of treasuries were tokenized on Solana, compared to Stellar’s $422 million and Ethereum’s $1.6 billion.

Global banking conglomerate Societe Generale will also contribute to the growth of the blockchain, noted the report.

Societe Generale is launching a euro-denominated stablecoin, as it prepares for the full implementation of the Markets in Crypto-Assets (MiCA) bill. The new stablecoin was already worth over $37 million on Ethereum, as Societe Generale’s crypto unit plans to add support for Solana.
