In terms of daily trading volume, SOL is still in the leading position, but compared with the trading volume of 4.497 billion US dollars last week, the overall daily trading volume of SOL this week has dropped by 37%. This also reflects that the popularity of Meme coins has shown a downward trend compared to the peak PVP period. In terms of transaction fees, SOL has a clear advantage over ETH chain and GAS.
