Why Solana is up 1.7% today
Analysis
Solana (SOL) rose about 1.7% over the past 24 hours as sentiment improved following a notable network performance upgrade: Solana reduced its mainnet slot time to 350 milliseconds as a first step toward a 200ms target, reinforcing the chain’s throughput and responsiveness narrative (The Block). Additional market attention on SOL’s push toward the $100 level likely supported near-term demand and momentum (AMBCrypto).
