Solana passed 100 billion cumulative non-vote transactions by June 26, 2026, reaching approximately 114 billion that day, per CoinMarketCap. It is the second blockchain to reach that level; Internet Computer holds roughly 293 billion lifetime transactions and is the only chain ahead.
Non-vote transactions cover user-initiated activity: transfers, token swaps, and smart contract calls. They exclude the validator vote messages Solana's consensus layer produces, which historically account for most of its raw on-chain throughput. CoinMarketCap Academy identifies the non-vote count as the standard metric for cross-chain comparison, since other networks generate no equivalent consensus overhead.
Solana's Q1 2026 output, votes included, reached 25.3 billion transactions in the quarter, per The Motley Fool: several times the non-vote count over the same window, reflecting how much of the chain's raw throughput is consensus traffic rather than user activity.
On January 30, 2026, Solana set a single-day non-vote record of 148 million transactions, per KuCoin. That report also noted that one week of Solana's non-vote volume roughly matched Ethereum's total mainnet output over the previous two years.
Internet Computer's higher cumulative count reflects its architecture: the network logs small computational operations as individual transactions, sustaining hundreds of millions of operations per day. Coinpedia reported in June 2026 that ICP was approaching 300 billion lifetime transactions.
