November was a key month for the growth of Solana's decentralized application ecosystem, driven by memecoin activity and DeFi applications.
Explosive Growth in Solana DApp Revenue
According to Syndica, Solana-based DApps earned $365 million in November. Pump.fun, in particular, made headlines with over $100 million revenue. Memecoin DApps were significant revenue generators with $509 million this year and a 300-fold growth.
Criticism of Pump.fun
Despite its success, Pump.fun faced criticism for incidents during livestreams, leading to the temporary suspension of its livestream feature and a 66% drop in revenue in the last week of November.
Continuation of Solana's Success
Despite Pump.fun's revenue drop, Solana continues to attract successful projects. DApps on the platform made a significant contribution to overall income, particularly in the DeFi and memecoin sectors.
With the increase in DApp revenue, Solana reaffirms its attractiveness to projects and potential in new trends, such as the memecoin boom.
