Abstract

PANews's 2025 public chain data review reveals a year of market correction and divergence. While the total value locked (TVL) across 26 major chains saw minimal growth (5.89%), down sharply from 2024's 119% surge, key metrics highlighted a shift towards fundamentals. The average token price fell by 50%, with new chains like Movement (-95%) and Berachain (-92%) hit hardest. However, underlying on-chain activity surged. Total fees generated grew 60% to $16.75 billion, and aggregate DEX trading volume rose 88%. Solana dethroned Ethereum in DEX volume, processing $1.52 trillion, while BNB Chain grew significantly across most metrics. Hyperliquid emerged as a standout, with a 299% TVL increase and a staggering 9,389% fee growth. BNB Chain and Tron also posted gains. In contrast, Solana's TVL stagnated (+0.8%) and user activity fell, exposing its meme-coindependency. Sui faced significant price pressure from token unlocks. Stablecoin market cap saw a "full bull market," with Solana leading growth at +196%. Funding data showed fewer but larger deals, with Polygon topping total capital raised due to Polymarket's mega-round. The year marked a pivot from "narrative" speculation to a focus on real revenue, user retention, and sustainable ecosystems, setting the stage for a more mature infrastructure landscape in 2026.

The year 2025 was a dramatic and watershed year for the public chain sector in the crypto world. If 2024 was a "carnival night" where various new public chains competed for attention with high airdrop expectations and grand narratives, then 2025 was the "moment of awakening" after the carnival.

As the tide receded and liquidity tightened, the real data once concealed by the表象 of prosperity began to surface. We witnessed an "ice and fire dichotomy": on one side, a general halving of secondary market prices and a significant slowdown in TVL growth; on the other, a surge in on-chain fee revenue and DEX trading volume against the trend.

This stark contrast reveals a harsh truth: the market is no longer paying for mere "stories." Capital is concentrating towards leading protocols with revenue-generating capabilities and essential use cases.

The PANews data team comprehensively compiled core 2025 data from 26 mainstream public chains, covering TVL, token price, fee revenue, activity levels, to investment and financing situations. Through these cold numbers, we attempt to还原 the "bubble-squeezing" process the public chain market underwent this year and identify the true winners who managed to build solid moats even in the winter.

(Data Note: Data for TVL, stablecoins, financing, and fee situations are sourced from Defillama; daily active addresses and daily transaction volume data are from Artemis and on-chain information; token price and market cap data use Coingecko as the source. The data period is from January 1, 2025, to December 16, 2025.)

A Spectrum of TVL: Growth Plummets, DeFi Experiences the Pains of "Deleveraging"

Looking at TVL, the most important indicator for measuring public chain prosperity, the leading chains saw slight overall growth this year, but the growth rate slowed. The total TVL of the 26 major public chains统计 by PANews grew by 5.89% this year, including 5 newly added chains whose initial data was 0. Furthermore, only 11 public chains achieved positive TVL growth, accounting for about 42%. In comparison, the annual TVL growth of the 22 mainstream public chains统计 in 2024 was 119%, with a growth proportion of 78%.

The slowdown in TVL growth also reflects the strong chill in the entire crypto market. But this doesn't mean 2025 was entirely平淡. Looking at the overall industry TVL, the全网 TVL reached a high of $168 billion in October, a 45% increase from $115.7 billion at the beginning of the year. However, after October, due to the暴跌 in market conditions, the entire market's TVL size took a sharp turn for the worse. Partly because the prices of various public chain native tokens fell, and partly because, amidst risk-off sentiment, a significant amount of capital chose to withdraw from the DeFi system.

Among the top ten public chains, Hyperliquid was clearly the winner of 2025. Compared to the single-digit growth of other chains, Hyperliquid's TVL achieved 299% growth this year. Solana, however, became the biggest loser, with growth of only 0.8%. With the cooling of the MEME coin market, this public chain giant seems to be heading towards a crisis. Furthermore, among the 26 public chains统计, Flare's growth rate exceeded 582%, becoming the fastest-growing public chain. OP Mainnet's TVL, on the other hand, dropped by 63.6%, becoming the chain with the most severe decline.

Prices Halved on Average by 50%, Market Stops Paying for New Public Chains

In terms of price, the performance of these mainstream public chains this year was also disappointing. Compared to their prices at the beginning of the year, the tokens of these 26 public chains fell by an average of 50%. Among them, Movement's token price fell by 95%, Berachain's by 92%, and Scroll's by 91%. These new public chains failed to gain market recognition.

Among the统计 public chains, only BNB Chain (22%), Hyperliquid (14.2%), Tron (9.30%), and Mantle (3%) achieved price increases this year, while the rest declined.

However, the changes behind these two data points, TVL and price, are primarily influenced by changes in crypto market liquidity. Analyzing the ecological development indicators of public chains reveals a different picture.

Protocol Revenue Soars, Public Chains Collectively Enter a New "Revenue Generation" Phase

In terms of on-chain fee generation, the统计 public chains generated $10.4 billion in on-chain fees throughout 2024. In 2025, this figure grew to $16.75 billion, an overall increase of 60%. Moreover, except for OP Mainnet, Mantle, and Scroll, which saw declines in fees, all other public chains achieved growth in 2025.

The chain with the largest fee increase was again Hyperliquid (9388.9%), mainly because Hyperliquid had just launched at the end of 2024, so the initial base was small. Additionally, Solana's fees grew by 107%, BNB Chain by 77%, Sui by 126%, and Aptos by 290%. It can be said that the revenue-generating ability of mainstream public chains greatly improved in 2025.

In addition, the trading volume on DEXs across various public chains also achieved an overall growth of 88%, with an average increase of 163%. Among them, Solana even completed its逆袭 against Ethereum, topping the list of chains with the highest trading volume at $1.52 trillion. BNB Chain also closely followed Ethereum with a trading volume of $697.2 billion and is highly likely to overtake Ethereum in 2026 as well.

Hyperliquid remained the fastest growing, with an annual DEX trading volume increase of 1217.00%, and Flare ranked second with an 880% increase.

When the "Airdrop Hunters" Disappear, New Public Chains Struggle with User Retention

The situation with daily active data is mixed.

Overall, the number of daily active addresses on these public chains grew from 14.86 million to 17.6 million, an overall increase of 18%. Achieving such data performance amidst market低迷 can be considered a relatively positive signal.

On the other hand, chains like Solana, Base, and Sui, which in the past best represented retail investor activity, saw declines to varying degrees. Base's daily active addresses fell by 84.9% compared to the beginning of the year, and Solana's fell by 37%. Recently, however, Polygon's daily active address count saw exponential growth, reaching 2.9 million on December 19th, a 612% increase compared to the beginning of the year. Additionally, the daily active numbers of BNB Chain, Sei, Aptos, and other public chains also achieved significant growth.

Furthermore, in terms of daily transaction count, the transaction volume of these public chains at the end of the year also achieved an overall growth of 33% compared to the beginning of the year. BNB Chain's data performance here is arguably the most impressive, growing from 3.5 million transactions at the beginning of the year to 14.5 million, outstanding in both scale and growth rate. Although Solana still leads far ahead with 58.44 million transactions, it only achieved a 2.8% growth for the year, showing signs of fatigue.

Stablecoins: The Only "Full Bull Market" of 2025

2025 was a year of全面爆发 for the stablecoin market, which is also reflected in public chain data. Compared to 2024, the stablecoin market capitalization on most public chains achieved substantial growth. The most outstanding performer was Solana, whose stablecoin market cap surged by 196% during the year, making it the public chain with the largest stablecoin growth. Ethereum and Tron, as the top two public chains for stablecoins, also maintained year-on-year growth of 46% and 37%, respectively. In addition, some actively performing public chains this year, such as BNB Chain and Hyperliquid, also achieved significant growth in stablecoins.

Ecosystem Financing: Polygon Wins with Star Projects, Ethereum and Solana Remain Hot

Another data dimension worth attention is financing. The crypto industry set new records in financing in 2025. PANews统计了 6710 financing cases and categorized these financing events according to their affiliated public chains for comparison. The results show that the number of financing deals on these public chains decreased significantly in 2025, from 640 to 293. However, the total amount increased from $350 million to $667 million, and the average financing amount per deal grew from $5.57 million to $22.79 million. This also indicates that it might be more difficult for small and medium-sized startup teams to secure financing in the current market, while capital is more willing to invest larger sums in some star projects.

In terms of public chain classification, Polygon became the financing leader with $2.24 billion, while Ethereum and Solana received $1.57 billion and $1.34 billion, respectively. However, Polygon's lead in financing is mainly due to Polymarket's massive financing of over $2 billion. Looking closely at the number of financing events, the main financing activities still occurred within the Ethereum, Solana, Bitcoin, and Base ecosystems.

Below is an analysis of several public chains of key market focus:

Ethereum: The Light Boat Has Passed Ten Thousand Heavy Mountains - A "Misalignment Period" of Fundamental Recovery and Stagnant Prices

As the leading public chain, Ethereum's development in 2025 can be described as "the light boat has passed ten thousand heavy mountains." After experiencing生态数据停滞 in 2024 due to severe分流 by L2s and徘徊不前的 market prices, Ethereum actually saw good growth in ecological data in 2025, especially in DEX trading volume (38.8% growth), stablecoin market cap (46% growth), on-chain active addresses (71% growth), among others. Additionally, it still leads most public chains in terms of ecological financing events and amounts. From these indicators, the ecological development of the Ethereum mainnet recovered in 2025.

However, in terms of price and TVL data, it remained stagnant due to the impact of the overall market correction. Nevertheless, compared to other public chain tokens, Ethereum's price performance has shown relatively stronger resilience.

Solana: Rise and Fall with MEME, Vulnerability Revealed After the Prosperity Bubble Burst

Compared to 2024, Solana presented a different state in 2025: the ecological fragility exposed after major ups and downs. After the MEME market turned from boom to bust at the beginning of the year, Solana failed to develop more narratives. Instead, various launchpads continued to engage in intense competition within the MEME coin track. Therefore, although it achieved significant growth in fee capture and DEX trading volume during the year, token price, year-end active users, and transaction count saw severe declines. This also indicates that the market is voting with its feet; Solana's prosperity bubble seems to have burst.

BNB Chain: From Defense to All-Out Offense, the "Hexagonal Warrior" with Comprehensive Growth

BNB Chain achieved全面爆发 in 2025, achieving positive growth in all统计 data dimensions. Especially in fee revenue, DEX trading volume, stablecoin market cap, and on-chain activity, the growth was almost over 100%. This is rare amidst the低迷 state of the entire public chain market.

Of course, such achievements are inseparable from Binance. From top executives like CZ actively participating in marketing, to launching Binance Alpha which has become a "required course" for many retail users seeking airdrops, to the new derivatives exchange Aster sniping at Hyperliquid. BNB Chain's counterattack from 2024 has turned into an all-out offensive, and this offensive is fierce. For all public chains, BNB Chain may have become an opponent that absolutely cannot be ignored.

Hyperliquid: The Dark Horse of the Year, Giving the Industry a Lesson with "Real Yield"

Similar to BNB Chain, Hyperliquid also shone brightly in 2025. Except for a slight decrease in market cap compared to the beginning of the year (-5.3%), all other data showed positive growth, and the increases in multiple data points were the largest among all public chains.

In 2025, Hyperliquid's TVL ranked 9th全网, fee generation amount ranked 3rd, DEX trading volume ranked 6th, and stablecoin market cap ranked 5th. Judging by the rankings of these indicators, Hyperliquid has become a veritable mainstream public chain. As a newcomer to this market, achieving such results is evidently very successful. Moreover, it was one of the very few public chains in 2025 that could sustain its entire ecosystem through real revenue without relying on inflationary incentives.

However, Hyperliquid has recently encountered strong competition from追赶者 like Aster and Lighter, whose trading volumes are already approaching. Unknowingly, Hyperliquid, which was still a challenger the previous year, might find its main theme for 2026 shifting to defending its擂台.

Sui: "Deep Squat" Under Unlock Pressure, Urgently Needs Reshaping After the Bubble Burst

As an emerging public chain that strongly chased Solana and was highly anticipated by the market in 2024, Sui was relatively沉寂 in 2025. Among all mainstream public chains, Sui's token price decline (-64%) and TVL decline (-46.8%)显示出来自市场的压力. This is mainly attributed to Sui entering a "密集解锁期" in 2025. A large number of tokens from early investors and teams entered the market,叠加 the overall market cooling, putting pressure on the price.

At the same time, in terms of ecological activity, daily active data and daily transaction count were almost flat compared to the beginning of the year, also reflecting the root cause of Sui's沉寂 this year: a lack of new narratives, and failure to fully爆发 while following the MEME market. However, judging from the growth in financing amount and DEX trading volume, capital has not completely abandoned Sui in essence. 2026 might be a year of reshaping after the bubble bursts.

Tron: The Ultimate Pragmatist, the "Cash Flow King" Deeply Cultivating the Payment Track

Tron's development trajectory in 2025 established another narrative style for the public chain market: riding the tailwind of stablecoins to持续 "make money quietly." Although TVL and token price saw about half retracement, Tron, relying on the stable performance of the stablecoin market, still generated $184 million in on-chain fees (a 126.9% increase), and DEX trading volume expanded by 224%. For Tron, rather than chasing hot topics for new narratives, it's better to master the基本功 of global stablecoin settlement. This pragmatic attitude has also made it a public chain with stable cash flow and strong user stickiness.

Looking back at the public chain江湖 of 2025, this is not just an annual report card but also a众生相 of public chain development.

The red and black lists of data clearly tell us: the "thousands of horses galloping" era of the public chain track has ended, replaced by残酷的 "stock game" and "oligopolization" trends. Whether it's Solana's traffic anxiety after the MEME tide receded, Sui's price阵痛 under the pressure of token unlocks, or the惨烈破发 of new public chains like Movement and Scroll in the secondary market, it all proves that the false prosperity maintained by VC blood transfusions and积分 PUA is unsustainable.

However, amidst the full screen of declines, we can better see the evolution of the industry's resilience. BNB Chain's explosive growth across its entire ecosystem, Hyperliquid's reliance on极致 real yield, and Tron's pragmatic深耕 in the payment track collectively point to the survival rule for 2026: survival depends not on storytelling, but on making money; not on刷量, but on real users.

The chill of 2025 might be piercing, but it successfully squeezed out the泡沫 that had been附着 on public chains for years. For the upcoming 2026, we have reason to believe that on this cleaner, more pragmatic foundation, public chains will no longer be merely speculative casinos but will truly become global financial infrastructure承载大规模价值交换.

What is CRMON

Salesforce Tokenized Stock (Ondo): Revolutionising Traditional Equity Access Through Blockchain Innovation The emergence of Salesforce Tokenized Stock (CRMON) marks a pivotal advancement in integrating traditional financial markets with blockchain technology. This innovative approach offers investors unprecedented access to equity exposure through tokenisation. Developed by Ondo Finance, CRMON provides tokenholders with economic exposure equivalent to holding Salesforce stock (CRM) while automatically reinvesting dividends. This effectively bridges the gap between conventional equity markets and decentralised finance (DeFi). Introduction and Comprehensive Overview of Salesforce Tokenized Stock In recent years, the financial landscape has dramatically transformed due to blockchain technology, fundamentally altering how investors access and interact with traditional assets. The development of Salesforce Tokenized Stock (CRMON) is a prime example of this evolution, representing a sophisticated fusion of conventional equity markets with cutting-edge distributed ledger technology. CRMON is a tokenised version of Salesforce stock, emerging from the innovative work of Ondo Finance, a leading platform in the real-world asset tokenisation sector that positions itself as a bridge between traditional finance and decentralised systems. Designed to provide tokenholders with economic exposure that mirrors the performance of the underlying Salesforce stock, CRMON incorporates automatic dividend reinvestment mechanisms. This eliminates many traditional barriers associated with international equity investment, such as complex brokerage relationships, currency conversion challenges, and restricted trading hours. The tokenisation process reimagines stock ownership as a blockchain-native asset while maintaining its economic equivalence with the underlying security, offering enhanced portability and integration capabilities within decentralised finance ecosystems. CRMON transcends its individual utility as an investment instrument to represent a fundamental shift in how financial markets can operate in an increasingly digital world. By maintaining full backing through U.S.-registered broker-dealers and implementing robust compliance frameworks, CRMON demonstrates that tokenised securities can achieve the regulatory standards necessary for institutional adoption while delivering the technological advantages of blockchain infrastructure. Understanding Tokenized Real-World Assets and CRMON's Strategic Position Tokenised real-world assets signify one of the most significant innovations in modern finance, fundamentally reimagining how traditional securities are represented, traded, and utilised within digital ecosystems. CRMON operates as a tokenised equity instrument correlating directly with Salesforce stock while optimising accessibility and efficiency. This aligns with Ondo Finance's broader mission to democratise access to institutional-grade financial products through innovative tokenisation strategies. The tokenisation process guarantees complete economic equivalence with the underlying Salesforce equity. Each CRMON token represents a proportional claim on Salesforce stock held by qualified custodians, with dividend payments automatically reinvested to maintain continuous exposure to total return performance. This structure simplifies dividend management and ensures that tokenholders receive the full economic benefit of their equity exposure, encompassing both capital appreciation and income generation. Ondo Finance's strategy in tokenising Salesforce stock demonstrates its expertise in creating compliant, institutional-grade products that meet traditional financial markets' stringent requirements. The platform’s focus on merging regulatory compliance with blockchain benefits positions it at the forefront of decentralised finance, captivating both institutional and retail investors seeking blockchain-native solutions. The Technology and Innovation Framework Behind CRMON The technological infrastructure supporting CRMON integrates blockchain technology with traditional financial mechanisms, delivering institutional-grade security and compliance while maintaining the operational advantages of decentralised systems. Built on the Ethereum blockchain, CRMON utilises robust smart contract capabilities to ensure transparent, secure operations. The smart contract architecture incorporates layered security and compliance mechanisms, enabling automated compliance checks and real-time asset backing verification. Integration with oracle services maintains accurate pricing and dividend information, ensuring CRMON reflects the underlying Salesforce stock's accurate performance. This architecture delivers automated dividend reinvestments and other corporate actions, eliminating manual processing requirements and directly enhancing tokenholder benefits. Ondo Finance ensures CRMON's security structure includes daily third-party verification of holdings, independent collateral agents, and a multiple-layer custody system through partnerships with established financial institutions. This framework safeguards tokenholder interests against operational risks while providing robust asset backing. The user interface enhances integration capabilities, allowing seamless interaction between CRMON and various decentralised finance protocols, as well as cryptocurrency exchanges. This interoperability enables users to leverage their tokenised equity across multiple platforms, creating sophisticated investment strategies that marry traditional equity characteristics with blockchain-native innovation. Leadership and Corporate Structure of Ondo Finance The leadership team behind CRMON and Ondo Finance blends expertise from traditional finance and blockchain technology, presenting a robust combination of skills essential for successfully bridging conventional markets with decentralised finance. Nathan Allman, the founder and CEO, emerged from a distinguished financial background before establishing Ondo Finance in 2021. Allman's experience includes notable roles at major financial institutions, including significant contributions to developing cryptocurrency market services. His insights into regulatory compliance were paramount in developing products like CRMON that successfully unify traditional securities with blockchain technology. With a team of professionals boasting substantial experience in both conventional finance and blockchain sectors, Ondo Finance's leadership comprises diverse expertise that covers every aspect of tokenised asset development. Justin Schmidt serves as President and COO, contributing unique operational expertise, while Chris Tyrell brings essential compliance knowledge.

The company has raised substantial funds through various investment rounds, attracting leading venture capital firms and strategic investors that recognise the transformative potential of tokenised securities like CRMON. Notably, Ondo Finance completed a successful Series A funding round in 2022, led by well-known venture capital firms. This funding success validates Ondo Finance's innovative approach to creating compliant, institutional-grade tokenised products. In total, Ondo Finance has successfully secured substantial funding, raising significant capital for product development and market expansion, including a noteworthy token sale that reinforced its governance structure through the establishment of the ONDO token. The diverse composition of investors reflects broad market confidence in Ondo Finance's business model, demonstrating support from both traditional and blockchain-native organisations. Operational Mechanics and Technical Implementation The operational framework supporting CRMON exemplifies sophisticated integration of traditional financial mechanisms with blockchain technology. The technical implementation introduces multiple layers of security, compliance, and operational efficiency to meet institutional standards while enhancing accessibility. The tokenisation process begins by acquiring actual Salesforce stock through U.S.-registered broker-dealers, ensuring each CRMON token maintains direct correlation with the underlying equity performance. Smart contracts automate operational processes, including dividend reinvestment and corporate action processing, facilitating a streamlined user experience. The Minting and redemption processes allow authorised participants to manage CRMON tokens effectively. During U.S. trading hours, institutions can mint new tokens by depositing stablecoins that are used to purchase corresponding Salesforce equity. This structure maintains a tight correlation with underlying assets, enhancing liquidity and price discovery. Additionally, the infrastructure supports twenty-four-hour token transfer capabilities, providing CRMON holders with operations outside traditional market hours. This represents a significant advantage over conventional securities ownership, thus promoting integration with decentralised finance applications. Plans for cross-chain compatibility through partnerships signal further ambitions for CRMON's market reach. By expanding to other blockchain networks, Ondo Finance aims to enhance accessibility and user engagement with tokenised equity products. Timeline and Historical Development of Tokenized Equity Innovation The timeline of CRMON's development and Ondo Finance's broader tokenised capabilities demonstrates a systematic innovation process beginning with the company's founding in 2021. 2021: Ondo Finance is founded by Nathan Allman and co-founders, launching initial products focused on structured vault offerings on the Ethereum blockchain. 2022: The company completes substantial funding rounds—both equity and token sales—totaling significant capital and launching initial tokenised U.S. Treasury products. 2023-2024: Ondo Finance experiences substantial growth, establishing partnerships with major financial institutions while expanding its product offerings beyond fixed-income securities.
