Top 10 Layer 1 Public Chains Ranked by Revenue in January 2026.
Solana operates as a true 'consumer chain' model: memes, transactions, retail, app usage → naturally boosting revenue.
TronDAO may not be the most hyped chain, but it is one of the most stable chains for making money, focusing on stablecoin economics (transfers, payments, clearing/settlement).
Ethereum: Most economic activities have migrated to L2, resulting in the direct revenue on L1 no longer reflecting the complete situation as it did before.
