Title: Solana’s Ascent: From Retail Darling to Institutional Powerhouse.
- Once viewed as a risky investment following the collapse of FTX, Solana (SOL) has made a remarkable comeback, emerging as one of the strongest performers in the latest crypto bull run. With its lightning-fast transaction speeds, minimal gas fees, and a rapidly expanding ecosystem, SOL has not only regained investor confidence but is now being hailed as a serious contender to Ethereum’s throne.
What’s driving this resurgence? Today, we delve into the surging on-chain activity within the Solana network. The network’s rapid growth underscores its game-changing potential. Join us as we explore the forces propelling Solana into the spotlight and assess its future prospects.

- Comparative Advantages: Solana offers a superior user experience with lower fees ($0.018 compared to Ethereum’s $1.80) and higher throughput (up to 65,000 TPS compared to Ethereum’s 15 TPS), making it an attractive option for developers and users alike. With low transaction costs, sub-second finality, and a network of several thousand nodes, Solana is poised to power mainstream payment flows—an assertion supported by Visa’s expansion of its USDC settlement to Solana.
