Quick Look

Solana’s native token, SOL, witnesses a 69% surge, hitting $208 on March 18.

Speculation about an upcoming altcoin season stirs the crypto market.

Solana, a high-performance blockchain, has recently seen its native token, SOL, experience a remarkable surge of 69% over the past month, reaching a new high of $208 on March 18. This impressive climb, however, faced a temporary setback, as SOL fell by over 16% since March 18 amidst a wider crypto market dip. Despite the fallback, SOL showcased its resilience by bouncing back from the critical $170 support level. As Bitcoin struggles to maintain its foothold above $70,000, whispers of an impending altcoin season have started circulating.

The Rise of Solana’s Memecoins

In the past month, memecoins on the Solana network, such as Dogwifhat (WIF) and Bonk (BONK), have experienced notable surges, leading to an upsurge in memecoin trading on the network. This increased activity has not only benefitted Solana through a surge in volume but has also seen active addresses engaging with its decentralised applications (DApps) rise sharply. Impressively, on several occasions, the daily trading volume on Solana’s decentralised exchange (DEX) has exceeded that of Ethereum. This surge in activity primarily owes to the frenzy surrounding memecoin presales, with the launches of Book of Meme (BOME) and Slerf (SLERF) generating billions in trading volume mere days after their market debut.

However, this heightened demand for Solana’s network has not come without its challenges. Critics have pointed out that the network has seen an increase in fees and a spike in failed transactions. On March 16, validators faced delays reaching up to 40 seconds, leading to almost half of all transactions failing in a brief period of 20 minutes.

75% Gain in 2023, Eyes $250 Target

Despite facing challenges, Solana’s trajectory remains overwhelmingly positive. Initially, the token traded at around $208 at the beginning of the week. This marked its first climb above $200 in two years. Subsequently, with a staggering 75% increase since the year’s start and a leap of over 700% in the past 12 months, SOL’s performance has been nothing short of spectacular. Hence, experts are optimistic considering this momentum and Solana’s strong fundamentals. They project that the token’s price could soar to $250 by the summer.

Moreover, the crypto landscape is continuously evolving. In this changing world, Solana distinguishes itself through its remarkable ability to adapt and thrive amidst market fluctuations. Consequently, showcased by its swift recovery from recent dips, the network’s resilience positions Solana as a formidable contender in the blockchain space. Although challenges like increased fees and transaction failures pose hurdles, a broader view unveils a platform teeming with potential. This platform is primed for further growth, showcasing Solana’s promising future in the evolving digital landscape.
