Solana (SOL), with its current price action, can be said to have changed the “gold standard” in the altcoin world. At the time of writing, Solana is up 17.88% to $62.07, a clear case of decoupling from Bitcoin’s growth. This price increase, which comes after a 12.65% increase in trading volume to $3,355,376,632, comes at a time when BTC and other altcoins are struggling to keep their prices stable.

It’s still unclear what the current source of optimism is in the Solana ecosystem, but we’ve seen a spanning renewal, with impacts seen on Grayscale Trust adoption, the protocol’s increased DeFi volume, as well as its rise in spot forex trading.

With the protocol rising 45% in the last seven days and 173% in the last month, there is a consensus that its biggest payday of the year is yet to come.
