Achieved a market capitalisation of over $90 billion, ranking as the 4th largest cryptocurrency.
Outperformed Ethereum in network activity and trading volume, with significant contributions from SOL-based meme coins and DeFi projects.

Solana (SOL) has marked a significant milestone in the ever-evolving landscape of cryptocurrencies, showcasing a stellar performance amidst wider market consolidation. Within the last 24 hours, Solana’s native token experienced an extraordinary surge, exceeding the $200 mark to trade at $204.16. This remarkable achievement highlights Solana’s growing prominence in the crypto market and underscores the increasing investor confidence in its potential. With a market capitalisation soaring above $90 billion, Solana now stands as the fourth-largest cryptocurrency, asserting its position as a formidable competitor in the digital asset space.

Surpassing the $200 Milestone: A Historic Achievement

On March 17, 2024, Solana transcended the $200 threshold for the first time since December 2021, marking a historic moment for the cryptocurrency. This surge comes amidst a period of market consolidation, where many cryptocurrencies are struggling to maintain their value.

Over the weekend, Solana’s network activity experienced a significant boost. It surpassed Ethereum (ETH), showcasing the vibrant ecosystem around SOL-based meme coins. According to DefiLlama, SOL’s total trading volume reached an impressive $3.52 billion. This figure outpaced Ethereum’s daily volume by over $1.1 billion on March 16. Additionally, the surge in activity was fueled by the Solana-based BOOK OF MEME (BOME) token. Remarkably, it skyrocketed by 322% in the last 24 hours. As a result, it surpassed the $1 billion market cap mark. The token also saw an astounding trading volume of $4.73 billion in a single day.

Decentralised Finance: Fueling Solana’s Growth

Another key driver behind Solana’s impressive performance is the rapid growth of its decentralised finance (DeFi) sector. In the past month, Solana’s total value locked (TVL) in DeFi projects increased by over 80%, reaching the highest level in the past two years. This growth is not only indicative of Solana’s technological prowess but also of the increasing shift in investor interest towards SOL. In December 2023, Google Trends data revealed that search interest for Solana more than doubled that of Ethereum, predicting that SOL’s search interest would soon achieve a score of 100, representing peak popularity for the term. This shift is emblematic of a broader trend within the cryptocurrency market, where investors are increasingly looking towards innovative platforms that offer scalability, security, and efficiency.

As the cryptocurrency landscape continues to evolve, Solana’s recent achievements underscore its potential to redefine the digital economy. With its advanced blockchain technology, vibrant ecosystem, and growing investor interest, SOL is well-positioned to lead the next wave of innovation in the crypto market.
