Solana (SOL) has experienced a series of bullish developments, resulting in the price of the native asset surging +38% in the past 21 days. Shopify stores can now use Solana Pay to process customer payments on the eCommerce platform, and Visa has chosen Solana to launch its cross-border settlement system. Despite a disappointing 2022, crashing 96% in 12 months, SOL has held up strongly and reclaimed its position in the top 10 of the crypto market cap listings. The CoinCodex price prediction algorithm expects SOL to form a new yearly high price level before the end of 2023. However, whether SOL can sustain its recent impulsive wave may largely rely on the wider market.
