$SOL JUST TOOK OVER PAYMENTS THE 755.3% SURGE
+755.3% TPV GROWTH in the last year.
This is the highest growth across all major payment platforms, and it isn’t noise it’s a structural takeover. In January 2026, Solana shattered records with 148 million non-vote transactions in a single day, proving that real-world usage is exploding.
From Visa-backed USDC settlement to Western Union’s upcoming 2026 stablecoin debut, the world’s largest fintechs are migrating to Solana for its 400ms finality and sub-penny fees.
While legacy rails struggle with high costs and slow settlement, Solana is handling 47x more daily transactions than Ethereum, evolving from a "meme coin hub" into the primary backbone for global finance.
This is how dominance is built quietly, then suddenly. Payments are waking up, and Solana is already running miles ahead of the pack. I’m watching this very closely as on-chain dApp revenue hits a staggering $146 million monthly.
$SOL pushing at 88.14 and the structure looks interesting here.
We’re sitting just above a key zone... if this holds, I’m eyeing 95.00 first and then 105.00 on continuation. Despite recent market-wide futures liquidations, Solana's fundamentals are decoupled from the price lag.
The 2.3 billion monthly transactions and doubling of active addresses to 5 million in January suggest that the "real usage" floor is rising even while the chart consolidates.
If liquidity remains strong, this infrastructure-driven demand will inevitably re-price the asset toward its yearly targets.
Risk stays controlled with a stop below 75.00 in case momentum fades.
Not chasing, just letting price prove itself. If flow stays strong, this can stretch higher.
