Why Solana is up 2.7% in the last hour

Analysis

Solana (SOL) rose 2.7% over the past hour as traders reacted to network-performance progress after Solana reduced mainnet slot time to 350 milliseconds, a step toward a 200ms target that can improve throughput and user experience (The Block). Additional bullish momentum was supported by market commentary highlighting SOL’s push toward the $100 level despite competitive pressures (AMBCrypto).
