In the first quarter of 2026, trading activity on decentralized exchanges (DEXs) continued to decline, with a trading volume of approximately $41.07 billion, remaining flat compared to 2025. Ethereum's trading volume outflow caused the DEXs' share of centralized exchanges to drop to 14.1%. Solana led with a weekly trading volume of $11.42 billion, driven by PumpSwap's activity and the launch of new tokens.
