๐ Solana's Rollercoaster: From Meteoric Rise to Market Adjustments! ๐ฅ๐๐
In a surprising twist, Solana's native token, SOL, finds itself navigating turbulent waters after a stellar bullish surge from September to December 2023. Investors are now at a crossroads as the once-soaring token experiences a gradual descent over the last three weeks.
๐ Meteoric Rise to Market Adjustments
Amid accolades for its impressive performance, SOL witnessed a meteoric 500% rise since October 2023, boasting a remarkable 105% surge in December alone. The frenzy surrounding Solana's SPL token airdrops, featuring Jito ( $JTO ), $BONK , and Dogwifhat (WIF), was fueled by the notorious FOMO.
๐ New Year, New Challenges
However, the dawn of the new year brought unforeseen challenges. The value of SOL took a hit in recent weeks, causing a dip in investor confidence. Overly optimistic expectations for airdrops and delayed debuts contributed to a short-lived rise in decentralized applications (dapps) and a subsequent reversal.
๐ Challenges and Caution in the Market
With SOL struggling to surpass $107 and experiencing a nine percent drop to $95 on January 19th, caution looms among investors. Persistent rejection from the $100 mark intensifies this sentiment. Coingecko stats show a 2.4% drop in the past 24 hours, with the current price at $89.72.
๐ Silver Linings: Development Amidst Decline
Amidst the price decline, positive indicators emerge. On December 19th, 2023, Solana's total value locked (TVL) soared to a record 15.4 million, marking a substantial 60% increase from the previous month. The network displays resilience with rising volumes and transactions, despite a slight dip in active dapp users last week.
