The surge in popularity of meme coins has led to increased activity on the Solana blockchain, resulting in higher transaction fees. Solana's transaction fees reached $0.15 this month, the highest level in a year, and the network earned approximately $78.14 million in fees over the past week. Solana-based decentralized applications (dApps) such as Raydium, Jito, Pump.fun, and Photon have also experienced a surge in activity and fees. However, there are concerns that the rising activity could lead to congestion and higher minimum fees, potentially pushing users away unless the network's infrastructure improves. Despite these concerns, Solana has achieved new price milestones, with SOL's price rising by nearly 20% to a new all-time high of $263.
