Solana's first-day trading volume on Monad approaches top platforms, and on-chain liquidity has experienced a qualitative change
On February 11th, news broke that on its first day of launch, the Monad platform quietly demonstrated "platform-level" trading capabilities on the Solana network. According to statistics from Sunrise DeFi writer shaddwfax, the on-chain trading volume of MON on Solana, when compared to traditional crypto trading platforms, would rank in the top five globally on that day, second only to a few leading platforms. This performance quickly sparked a reevaluation in the market of Solana's high-throughput public chain and its DeFi liquidity capacity.
Data shows that the initial trading volume of MON on Solana was approximately $97 million, not a slow accumulation but a rapid surge within a short period. Within 24 hours of launch, its trading volume exceeded that of early Hyperliquid MON trades by over 122%, making Solana the core battleground for this round of price discovery. Even more noteworthy, within just 48 hours, the network completed over $400 million in related transactions, with nearly 360,000 total trades, demonstrating large-scale participation of real users and real funds.
