Katana Is Becoming a Game-Changer for Sushi SushiSwap’s trading volume had been declining for months, hitting a low of just $10M/day by the end of June. But things started turning around fast. On July 1, @SushiSwap was deployed on the Katana network as a core dApp — and processed $2.5M in trading volume on launch day alone. Since then, momentum has only grown. As of today, total trading volume on Katana has reached $22M — a nearly 10x increase in just 18 days. More impressively, @katana now accounts for ~50% of Sushi’s total volume across all chains. That’s not just a spike — that’s a revival. Yes, this growth has been heavily driven by incentives — but the key point is this: This is a long-term partnership. As Katana becomes more integrated into the Agglayer ecosystem, Sushi will serve as the default DEX for cross-rollup swaps. This could eventually drive hundreds of millions of dollars in daily volume through Sushi, completely changing its trajectory. A Win-Win Partnership Katana gains a trusted, proven DEX infrastructure with years of onchain history. Sushi gets a second chance — exposure to new users, networks, and massive volume growth. This is the kind of collaboration that can reshape both brands. I have a feeling we’ll be hearing a lot more about the Katana x Sushi synergy in the months ahead.
