- Solana’s market cap increased by $28 billion in 30 days amid growing network activity.
- Transaction priority fees on Solana multiplied by 10x, indicating network congestion.
- Solana Virtual Machine (SVM) emerges as a scaling solution following Ethereum‘s successful model.
- Donald Trump‘s crypto projects contribute to increased SOL token demand.
- New SVM-compatible blockchains Fogo and Solayer aim to address scaling challenges.
Solana’s Market Surge and Network Challenges
Solana’s cryptocurrency SOL has experienced remarkable growth, adding $28 billion to its market capitalization over the past month, following indirect endorsements from former President Donald Trump’s cryptocurrency ventures and complications facing its competitors.
The surge in popularity has led to increased network congestion, with transaction priority fees multiplying tenfold. This congestion has prompted developers to create Solana Virtual Machine (SVM) compatible blockchains as potential solutions.
Ethereum’s Blueprint for Success
Following the successful model of Ethereum, Solana is implementing similar interoperability features. MetaMask, Ethereum’s prominent wallet provider, previously demonstrated the effectiveness of this approach by enabling users to switch between various Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) compatible networks seamlessly.
This compatibility helped establish successful blockchain networks like Avalanche, Polkadot, BNB Chain, and tron, each generating billions in market value through their native tokens. Solana aims to replicate this success through SVM compatibility and its Phantom wallet.
Trump Effect and Future Development
Recent developments show Solana’s strategy of modularization through SVM implementation. According to Wei Dai, this approach was anticipated as a logical progression for Solana’s growth trajectory.
The platform has received additional momentum from Trump-associated cryptocurrencies, including World Liberty Financial and the TRUMP memecoin, which have directed funds toward SOL and Solana-based assets. The Moonshot wallet, used for launching these tokens, has facilitated the onboarding of hundreds of thousands of new users.
Delphi Research analysts indicate that this development has directly benefited SOL’s price performance. As more SVM-compatible blockchains emerge, users can anticipate an expanding selection of networks within the Phantom wallet interface.
