**Current reading:** The selected Solana RPC endpoint reports healthy.

## What is happening now?

### Active stake: 437,717,374.65 SOL

Activated stake assigned to currently active vote accounts.

**Why it matters:** It shows how much voting power is currently participating.

- Status: `ok`
- Source: Solana JSON-RPC / `getVoteAccounts`
- Collected: `2026-09-03T21:04:13.594523Z`
- Confidence: `high`
- Important limitation: Vote accounts are not necessarily distinct operators or organizations.

### Active validators: 675 validators

Vote accounts currently classified as active by the RPC response.

**Why it matters:** Active vote accounts show how many validators are currently participating, before considering stake concentration.

- Status: `ok`
- Source: Solana JSON-RPC / `getVoteAccounts`
- Collected: `2026-09-03T21:04:13.594523Z`
- Confidence: `high`
- Important limitation: A validator count does not describe how evenly stake is distributed.

### Latest stable Agave release age: 6.10 days

Elapsed days since the newest non-draft, non-prerelease Agave release.

**Why it matters:** Release recency is one bounded sign of maintained core software.

- Status: `ok`
- Source: Anza Agave GitHub releases / `GitHub releases; latest stable tag v4.2.2`
- Collected: `2026-09-03T21:04:18.892238Z`
- Confidence: `medium`
- Important limitation: A recent release is not automatically safe or widely adopted, and release age is not a developer-count metric.

### Stable Agave releases in 90 days: 10 releases

Non-draft, non-prerelease Agave releases published in the trailing 90 days.

**Why it matters:** Release cadence shows whether core client work is shipping publicly.

- Collected: `2026-09-03T21:04:20.031085Z`
- Confidence: `high`
- Important limitation: Roadmap dates can move; announced development is not mainnet activation.

Current block height reported by the selected RPC node.

**Why it matters:** Block height is a second progress marker that helps detect a stalled or lagging data source.

- Status: `ok`
- Source: Solana JSON-RPC / `getBlockHeight`
- Collected: `2026-09-03T21:04:13.594523Z`

- Important limitation: Different RPC nodes can be a few slots apart.

### Jupiter signer and fee-payer overlap: 21,869 wallet addresses

Jupiter Swap signer addresses that were also the successful transaction fee payer on the same UTC day.

**Why it matters:** The overlap reveals how often the visible application signer also pays the transaction fee.

- Status: `stale`
- Source: Dune / `jupiter_solana.aggregator_swaps + solana.transactions / daily_jupiter_swap_signers.sql`
- Collected: `2026-08-15T18:49:40.811356Z`
- Confidence: `high`
- Important limitation: This is an address intersection, not a count of people; sponsored or relayed transactions can fall outside it. Automatic refresh note: The saved Dune result is preserved but needs a fresh query execution.

### Daily unique Jupiter Swap signers: 21,869 wallet addresses

Distinct tx_signer addresses on intended swaps recorded by Dune's curated Jupiter aggregator table during the latest complete UTC day.

**Why it matters:** It shows the scale of intended swap activity through one of Solana's major application routes.

- Collected: `2026-08-15T18:49:40.811356Z`
- Confidence: `high`
- Important limitation: Wallet addresses are not people, and this measures Jupiter Swap signers rather than users of a particular wallet app. Automatic refresh note: The saved Dune result is preserved but needs a fresh query execution.

### Daily unique successful fee payers: 1,932,287 wallet addresses

Distinct primary signer (fee payer) addresses on successful non-vote Solana transactions during the latest complete UTC day.

**Why it matters:** Fee payers approximate how many distinct addresses initiated successful activity and paid for execution.

- Collected: `2026-08-15T18:49:40.811356Z`
- Confidence: `high`
- Important limitation: Wallet addresses are not people: one person or bot can control many addresses, and relayers may pay fees for others. Automatic refresh note: The saved Dune result is preserved but needs a fresh query execution.

### Daily unique successful signers: 3,500,599 wallet addresses

Distinct signer addresses on successful non-vote Solana transactions during the latest complete UTC day.

**Why it matters:** Successful signers capture a broader set of participating addresses than fee payers alone.

- Status: `stale`
- Source: Dune / `solana.transactions.signers / daily_unique_successful_signers.sql`
- Collected: `2026-08-15T18:49:40.811356Z`
- Confidence: `high`
- Important limitation: Wallet addresses are not people: one person or bot can control many addresses, and one transaction may require several signers. Automatic refresh note: The saved Dune result is preserved but needs a fresh query execution.

### Delinquent stake share: 0.16 percent

Delinquent activated stake as a share of all activated stake in this response.

**Why it matters:** Stake share is more meaningful than a raw delinquent-validator count.

- Status: `ok`
- Source: Solana JSON-RPC / `getVoteAccounts`
- Collected: `2026-09-03T21:04:13.594523Z`

Vote accounts currently classified as delinquent by the RPC response.

**Why it matters:** Delinquency is an early operational signal that part of the validator set is falling behind.

- Status: `ok`
- Source: Solana JSON-RPC / `getVoteAccounts`
- Collected: `2026-09-03T21:04:13.594523Z`

- Important limitation: This compares a bounded set of recent samples from one RPC endpoint.

### Estimated total TPS: 3,635.27 transactions/second

All transactions in the latest RPC performance sample divided by sample seconds.

**Why it matters:** Total throughput shows network load, but must be separated from user activity because it includes validator votes.

- Status: `ok`
- Source: Solana JSON-RPC / `getRecentPerformanceSamples`
- Collected: `2026-09-03T21:04:13.594523Z`

### Jupiter Swap seven-day return rate: 44.15 percent

Share of the day's Jupiter Swap signer addresses also seen at least once during the preceding seven complete UTC days.

**Why it matters:** Return rate distinguishes repeat use from one-time address activity.

## How to read this

These measurements describe different parts of Solana. They do not, by themselves, prove how many humans are using the network or why activity changed.
