The month has been marked by a drop in demand for the Solana (SOL) network. As August nears its end, the Layer-1 (L1) network has reached its lowest point in terms of transaction and active address count for the entire year.
This decline in usage has impacted network fees and revenue, which have plummeted by more than 50% over the past month.
Solana’s Users Bid It GoodbyeSo far this month, the number of unique addresses that have signed transactions across Solana has totaled 18.09 million. This is a 67% decline from the 54.33 million monthly active users recorded in July and a 16% drop in active usage year-to-date (YTD).
As for unique first signers on the network, their count has also dropped. According to The Block’s data dashboard, the number of new users on the Solana network this month stands at 11.1 million, a 66% decrease from the YTD high of 33.15 million recorded in new user count in July.
This drop has occurred despite the recent hype around Pump.fun, the Solana-based meme coin creation platform.
