Statistics show that the Solana (SOL) blockchain brings 24% more income to validators than the Ethereum (ETH) network.

According to the DeFiLlama portal, on October 24, the earnings of Solana network nodes in the form of transaction processing fees reached a record high of $4.6 million. The revenue of Ethereum blockchain nodes was only $3.6 million. At the same time, since the beginning of September, the income of SOL network validators has increased almost 12 times, and ETH blockchain nodes began to earn only six times more.

Growth in the amount of income received by Solana blockchain participants

Solana and Ethereum networks operate on the basis of the PoS consensus protocol, so they generate income not only as a result of processing transactions, but also by blocking coins. It turns out that ETH is still ahead in terms of staking, because on October 24, people who locked Solana earned $2.3 million, while Ethereum earned $2.6 million.
