Solana Surges Past Base in AI Payment Activity
Solana's payment protocol activity has surged ahead of Base, handling the majority of transactions and volume for the first time. The x402 AI payment protocol enables AI agents and apps to use stablecoins for online services, marking a significant growth area.
This milestone is significant as it highlights Solana's growing adoption in the market. Additionally, Solana led in app revenue for August with $143 million, accounting for 38% of total on-chain app earnings, surpassing Ethereum and others.
Despite a recent price rally, SOL is consolidating around $104, but there is positive buying interest suggesting potential for further demand growth or profit-taking by traders. This mixed sentiment indicates that investors are cautiously optimistic about Solana's prospects.
