The completion of the BNB Beacon Chain Sunset marked a significant milestone for the network. Meanwhile, Solana's total application revenue, referred to as Chain GDP, surged 213% quarter-over-quarter to reach $840 million, driven by strong performances from top applications such as Pump Fun, which generated $235 million, and Photon, which earned $140 million. Solana also achieved a total value locked (TVL) of $8.6 billion and DEX volume of approximately $3.3 billion daily. The report from Messari indicates that Solana's metrics reflect a historic quarter for the blockchain, with November alone contributing $367 million in app revenue.
