Growth rate tells you direction, not dominance.

#Solana posting 755% YoY TPV growth is undeniably strong. That kind of expansion signals accelerating adoption and increasing on-chain economic activity. Momentum like this rarely appears in stagnant ecosystems.

However, context matters. Total payment volume still trails traditional giants like PayPal and Adyen by a wide margin. The growth base is smaller — which makes triple-digit expansion easier.

The real takeaway isn’t that Solana dominates payments today. It’s that it’s compounding faster than incumbents and even other chains.

Sustained growth, not one-year spikes, will determine whether this becomes structural market share or just a cycle-driven surge.
