On 19th November, MoonPay reported a staggering 295% increase in its daily Solana (SOL) transactions compared to the 2024 average. By 11 a.m. Eastern Time on 20th November, this record was surpassed again, with MoonPay facilitating more SOL transactions in a single day than the entire month of November 2023 combined.

Known for its fast transaction speeds and low fees, Solana continues to attract retail and institutional users alike. Its scalability and efficiency make it a preferred blockchain for gaming, NFTs, and DeFi, further driving MoonPay’s success in leveraging this ecosystem.
Broader Implications for Crypto Adoption
MoonPay’s record-breaking performance underscores the rising demand for accessible cryptocurrency platforms. The growing adoption of Solana and MoonPay’s user-friendly services signal a broader trend of increasing mainstream interest in blockchain technology.
With its recent milestones, MoonPay cements its position as a leading gateway for crypto enthusiasts, paving the way for future growth in decentralized finance and blockchain applications.
