The article discusses the Total Economic Value (TEV) of Ethereum and Solana, two prominent smart contract blockchains. Ethereum had a higher TEV than Solana for most of their histories, but Solana caught up earlier this year due to increased activity and lower fees. However, in the past couple of weeks, Ethereum has seen a significant spike in TEV, pulling ahead of Solana by seven times. This surge in TEV is attributed to a resurgence of memecoins on Ethereum. Uniswap remains the biggest fee-generating app on Ethereum, generating more than double the fees of the biggest Solana decentralized exchange. Despite Solana's recent success, ETH still has a larger market cap and a more extensive ecosystem. The TEV divergence between Ethereum and Solana may be a temporary phenomenon as Ethereum returns to its usual baseline.
