[cryptohog]

Financial applications are driving blockchain usage:

DeFi & finance protocols: 63% of all fees in H1 2025 (~$6.1B, +113% YoY)

DEXs, derivatives, and lending make up $4.4B

Solana protocols like Raydium & Meteora challenge Uniswap’s dominance

Wallets: 8% of fees, led by Phantom

Consumer apps: 6%, mainly launchpads like Pump.fun

Even lending protocols are evolving: Aave remains top, but Morpho now holds 10% of lending fees.

The on-chain economy is maturing fast, expanding far beyond speculative trading.
