Why Solana is down 1.1% in the last hour

Analysis

Solana (SOL) slipped 1.1% over the past hour, likely reflecting short-term profit-taking or “sell-the-news” behavior as traders digested headlines about a network speed/efficiency protocol upgrade. While Decrypt framed the upgrade as potentially supportive for SOL longer term, the immediate market reaction can still be muted or negative as positioning unwinds.
