Key news
Transaction V1 is live. The txv1 feature gate activated at epoch 1035 on September 15, raising the maximum transaction size to 4,096 bytes from 1,232. That makes room for ZK proofs, large multisigs and some on-chain signature schemes. Legacy and v0 formats keep working. (Source: Solana Foundation)
August flows. SOL ETPs took in $249.8M in August, ten times July and the best month of the year, with Bitwise's BSOL posting its best day on August 27. (Source: Messari)
Treasury companies flat. Solana treasury-company holdings stayed around 16.8M SOL for an eleventh straight month. (Source: Messari)
The SOLTRACER take
ETF buyers are doing the lifting while treasury companies sit out. Bigger transactions quietly widen what can be built on Solana, especially privacy and ZK tooling. Our read: consolidation above $100 after a 46% month is healthy. Track it live on the Dashboard and the Top 20.
