The only way to shake off a Breakpoint event is to keep shipping, and Solana's been doing exactly that 🚢🚢🚢



Wrapping up 2025, here's what actually went down in the Solana ecosystem:

📰 Key Developments

- Visa has established a settlement pipeline on Solana, moving toward $3.5 billion in annual transaction volume

- A major centralized exchange rolled out native DEX trading capabilities for Solana, making it easier for users to swap directly on-chain

These moves signal serious traction in real-world adoption and on-chain liquidity infrastructure. Visa's settlement volume alone shows institutional interest in leveraging Solana's speed and cost efficiency. Meanwhile, DEX integration from top exchanges is reducing friction between centralized and decentralized trading—exactly the kind of friction-reducing infrastructure the ecosystem needs heading into the next cycle.

The $350 million settlement amount from Visa isn't anything special, to be honest. The key is to look at the proportion of real trading volume. We don't want just numbers from a PR article; on-chain data is what truly matters.

The visa order has been finalized, this is the real turnaround, not just empty talk.

The 3.5 billion settlement amount of visa sounds quite impressive, but has it really been implemented? Let's not have another case of promises turning into air.

On-chain data shows that Visa's settlement amount of 3.5B is worth investigating, especially the contract deployment Timestamp, as this kind of number often has some discrepancies based on past experience.
