In the past 24 hours, the network processed 328 million transactions, accounting for 68.5% of the total transaction volume in the crypto market.
On-chain activities support the value foundation. Solana Beach’s monitoring shows that the number of active addresses has exceeded 1.32 million (up 19% in 7 days), and the total value locked (TVL) of DeFi protocols has risen to 4.73 billion US dollars, with a monthly increase of 32%.

Before the Federal Reserve’s interest rate decision, the US dollar index dropped by 0.7%, driving a general rise in crypto assets. Referring to the historical case of SOL surging by 41% in a single week after Solana and Visa settled the network in May 2024, the current network upgrade (Firedancer testnet TPS reaching 1.04 million) may push up the valuation. However, the risks cannot be ignored: In 2023, the FTX collapse caused SOL to plummet by 36% in a single day, and the 90-day volatility of the SOL/BTC exchange rate reached 54%. If 5 SOL needs to be cashed out, it is recommended to split the transaction to avoid slippage.
