Deep dives
Surprising Resilience of Solana
The unexpected recovery of Solana in the cryptocurrency market was a key focus, particularly how it managed to thrive despite early predictions that it was largely over after the FTX collapse. Initially seen as lacking sufficient trading volume to support a revival, Solana has instead become buoyed by a surge in meme coin activity, leading to a resurgence in on-chain demand. This growth has attracted increased entrepreneurial activity, boosting development velocity within its ecosystem. Consequently, Solana has now established a more stable foundation that promises to endure regardless of the future of meme coins.
