However, despite these factors, Solana [SOL] outperformed Tron in various areas.
Tron cannot catch up
Artemis’ data showcased that the daily active addresses on the Tron network were high compared to Solana at press time. However, the latter still outperformed Tron in terms of daily transactions by a huge margin.

This indicated that even though Tron had a large user base, Solana’s users were more engaged with the network. One reason for the same would be the popularity of Solana NFTs. Popular Solana NFT collections, such as Solana Monkey Business and DeGods, have been doing relatively over the last week.
According to SolanaFloor’s data, the number of owners holding the Solana Monkey Business collection has grown materially over the last few days. Coupled with that, the floor price of this NFT collection also grew significantly in the same period.

Until press time, no Tron NFT collection could garner the same level of interest as Solana Blue Chip NFT collections.
The dApp angle
Another factor that has aided Solana in retaining such a loyal and engaged user base is because of the dApps on its protocol. One of its dApps, called Raydium, has seen a massive uptick in the number of users on its protocol. Over the last month, the unique active addresses on the protocol surged by a whopping 163.5%.
