REV Monthly Update at the start of Dec 2025
The share of Jito tips has shrunk to below 50% with each passing month having been replaced by priority fees increasing its share to over 50%.
📈 TPS Trends:
The chart highlights a drop in both real TPS (confirmed, user-initiated transactions) and total TPS (all network activity—including vote and maintenance transactions).
This confirms softer user activity, with protocol throughput trending lower even as infrastructure remains robust.
2/n
💸 SOL Issuance Watch:
In Nov 2025, gross SOL issuance reached $314.79M with net issuance at $304.94M.
Both metrics are trending lower with rewards to validators reducing after a high-issuance autumn. Watch these spikes—their timing drives supply dynamics and network inflation and thereby prices.
3/n
🔥 SOL Rewards & Burn:
November delivered $230M in staking rewards and $84M in voting rewards, but just $9.85M in SOL burn.
While validator payouts have reduced, burn activity stayed modest—suggesting supply expansion still outweighs the offset from burning.
4/n
🟦 Block Rewards & Jito:
Nov saw $315M in gross SOL issuance, with $230M paid as staking and $84M in voting rewards.
Jito Labs commissions totaled $324k—a small portion indicating that industry is looking at new ways to extract value from the chain like BAM and protocol controlled transaction ordering.
Monitoring these streams helps track validator earnings beyond just inflation.
