I am curious for what could be the reasons why Solana pumped hard a few days ago?

If you take a look, in just 14 days, Solana is up 100+%,  7 days is 77% as of now.

I own a small amount of Solana and already tried this network. But yeah, I am curious what could be the reasons for these pumps?

I don't know if it's all speculation but Solana has a big storage problem and when it's used under load, Solana blockchain will grow a lot very fast.
Experts have said it is really hard to run a node, even if you are a coder because hardware requirements, updating and maintaining are extremely difficult.

For example, SEQ has said:


Maybe Solana has found a way how to solve it, but I can't find any announce. If it's solved, it would also mean it is solved for all Blockchains because Bitcoin and Ethereum have also storage Problems, you know Bitcoin can only process 10 transactions per second because a block is limited to 1 MB and no more transactions can go in a block.
Big Blockers like BCH and BSV have arrived and now say: "make bigger blocks to get more transactions into a block". At first sight, it is very good because more transactions are now in a block and it has more capacity like 100 transactions per second but at second sight, big blocks are really bad for a blockchain long term.
After let's say 10 years, a big block blockchain is so big and has so much data because blocks are so big, it is very bad for nodes to download and leading to centralisation.
Big block is no solution.

And Solana has an extreme big block blockchain problem because it's fast but has so much data collected over even 1 year, Solana blockchain will grow massively and will become very useless soon because it will get so big.
Storage problem is very bad at Solana if it can't get solved, even more bad like Bitcoin SV.

Some news that I was able to gather for you from Reddit.


In my opinion, it was supposed to happen someday. I would recommend you to keep an eye on ALGO. It will also pump in the coming days.

What happen with many trader and investor sell Solana coin with lower price, I still remember when joining solana airdrop and got many coin but early to sell, first time when listing on Binance I got about 200 solana coin but not hold yet and sell it on market after listing, but now price up above 470 looks not lucky why have sell early.

If you look deep into Solana, you'll find out that it's really similar to Binance Smart Chain (BSC). BSC is backed by Binance - a top tier exchange and Solana is backed by FTX - also a huge exchange. Solana ecosystem grows like the way BSC grew with a lot of apps and AMMs. Apparently DeFi is the key to Solana's pumps. I tried Solana. It's fast, cheap but the only thing that makes me annoyed is that I have to let a blank window running to use its wallet.

Not only Solana, many other blockchains also pumped in the last few weeks, such as Polkadot or Terra (LUNA).

I think Solana pumped due to some massive game projects that released too such as star atlas and many more. Their ecosystem is quite far from metamask extension but they are building their own system and other investors and whales are seeing how it got improved thats why they bought in. Its really amazing from a very low price now solana is kinda expensive. Only If I bought a lot during its early stage. Anyway thats my opinion and I think it could still grow more.

SOL will be a very good project in the near future. It can take BNB's price very soon cause they own a blockchain system and they trying to realize lots of updates for that reason I will invest in the SOL project again. we expecting good something from SOL tem.

If you look at this with an economic formula, then the process that occurs when pumping solana is the greater demand for them, so that the demand is not balanced with the expenditure on solana, this makes more sense if you see the process happening.

But this is not necessarily true, if you look at it in a different context, many formulations sometimes don't match the actual events, but I believe that more than analyzing with other patterns, which today's recession is also a factor.

All due to technological solutions to the problems of the Ethereum network. Many people are simply tired of using outdated technologies, and Solana offers people more functionality for the development of the blockchain for a meager fee.
Take a look at the Near Protocol project. It follows exactly the same scenario as Solana. is growing due to its technological solutions related to transaction fees (inside their blockchain their cost is $ 0.01), transaction speed and huge scalability. Moreover, within the ecosystem of Solana and Near there are their own defi that provide excellent opportunities for new investors. In general, this is the future

A lot of people only invest in DApps or projects that they can use, not just a whitepaper and a website. NEAR is the easiest blockchain to use and build on and I'd say that will have an effect on the price going forward.

I bought solana at 2 dollars early this year, I've been following up with the crypto space but has some works to do feels good I'm independent now. Just came back to see real big bull like what really happened that triggered this on solana my 400 sol that was about $800-$900 is now showing $31k omg so happy for sol. Early birds which I knew I would have bought 1000sol back then

Solana is doing well since last week probably if I'm not mistaken, because as i check this coin when I'm trying to trade alts few days ago,  it's showing a higher percentage in the market, but seems the price is already too high and the growth rate is very steady like a constant uptrend, wherein even there's a small fluctuation but after that it will continue to bump the price.. Honestly through youtube i see there's alot of good specification for solana, and probably that's what happening right now.. Sad to say we miss the opportunity from it.

As someone who has tried the Solana network, they are doing really well as blockchain. It is very fast and the fees are very cheap. They use pos system. They have started many projects recently, all of them ambitious projects and investors are adopting these projects. The Solano team also receives funds from many large investors, and at the same time, I consider it normal to rise.

I think it's still a small pump despite the 2x increase, but maybe 100$ will be reached in the near future.
But it's true that there have been many big projects in it including including the sale of IDO which is now much in the interest of investors and it is running successfully just a few days before it, so there will be more investors holding SOLANA for the long term and also something in investing in new projects , so don't be surprised and this will be more the same as the BSC which now also has a bigger pump.

Use cases of a coin promotes it's price so am convinced the game project attributed to the high prices we seeing now and also it's backed by Sam who is a multimillionaire and he even made it known to the mass some time ago  that there should sell off sol and he would buy them back at a lower prices, imagine the guts. Well I love the fact that the price is pumping real good but it pains me that I got no sol left, sold so early and now I can't buy back because i don't want to FOMO in to the market or going to buy the top.

It has already started to rise but still don't know what's the reason behind it. Obviously it is on a good shape now but how can we sure that it will be rising continuously?

To be frank, Solana took everyone by surprise, and if my calculations are correct, from the growth so far, it shows that SOL coin has hit another ATH. Even when the market is correcting, the price keeps growing and not only that, another good thing of note is that, as the SOL coin is growing, most of the tokens on its blockchain are growing with it. In as much as I might not know the reason for the pump, but it is clear the team are working on their blockchain in such a way that projects are now finding it easy to launch and if what happened during the BSC network wave is to happen again on the Solana blockchain, then we might be witnessing another round of growth of the SOL coin, that is, as more projects launch on it, the more it grows, moreover it is fast and transaction cost is cheap.
As usual, predictions are already flying on what the price will reach by end of the year, well no one can say but holding SOL might be a good idea just in case this anticipated bull run works more for their blockchain just like it did for BSC some months ago.

Well, that is the hell pumped, it makes me crazy to see that I did not have regret that I bought this coin 20% in my portfolio.
The reason is here ^{[ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dIAh3zM-KYw ]}, one of their great developers explained that because most likely crypto games are now in a bullish situation and could be the reason this coin pumped so much right now because of this factor. NFTs is very common based on game and there was a connection with the recent pump of solana.

I really don't know what triggered this solana massive bull. Two highs in two days
The bitcoin bull made a huge impact but definitely not the main reason for the continues rise of solana price. I remember the last bear, all other coins where falling down and it took up to a week or two for solana to breakdown below $40 to $20 since then I've been like " this coin has potential and a strong team behind" and if it continues this way let's just expect nothing less but to see solana at $100 by next weekend.

I'm looking forward and keep buying this coin because i believe solana will give me huge return in the future and it make me more confident about this coin because their so many big partnership around him which is nfts based projects, lot of defi, exchange, infrastructure and Solana is also often endorsed by SAM BankMan Fried (SBF) and founder/CEO of FTX also support this coin.

Actually the hype is real plus the use case is working so definitely its a win win. But like you mate, I also dont have any sol token to be that kinda happy. So were on the same boat. Congrartulations to those who hold and ripping off the profits right now. Just be wise to take some and dont be greedy. Take out your capital at least.

Indeed. They are too patience on holding it for too long. As long as you trust the coin your holding, then you must possibly gain good profit. SOL was a very good project for the future. Overall Solana has had a very good pump with few corrections, and from the current market condition, there is a higher chance that Solana will pump very well again, so make the most of this opportunity. Just be wise on choosing and don't be greedy to avoid such losses. Make sure you have proper knowledge about it to gain higher profit.

Solana is a hot rising crypto with the ecosystem of this project growing and expanding rapidly. I find Solana's decentralization problematic as most people can't operate a node easily because the hardware requirements are too strict looking at Solana's validation structure.

Some people here don't really get what I want to know. I am curious what is the cause of pumps not what Solana is, we already know Solana is fast and has cheap transaction fees. What I am looking is somehow news or some data or feature/update that cause a massive pump for Solana.
But thanks for all who answered.

To be honest I cannot see Solana to be trending there must be a whales involve to this. Same with ADA.

The price of Solana could be seen coming, for a few weeks it had already been hinting at a probably bullish movement, but due to the volatility of BTC it could not be seen very well, however the bears have not been able to lower it to the levels they want, 58USD it's a great value, but now at 80.62 it's a great price for the coin:

You could say that many investors saw the potential of the coin and invested right when BTC started to go up in price, like doing some Shelter of Value.

solana will fly high Tvl is getting faster day by day, growth has increased dramatically... solanium ido, for example, many investors are interested... the dex solana exchange is also increasing in volume... next year solana i think will go to All time high 100$ 150$ 200$ to be able to follow the upcoming BNB...

Almost altcoin have their own network and blockchain have big chance growing up like Solana, Waves and BNB coin. For solana is faster way for growing up although few years launching and have lower price at the early, I remember when selling Solana coin from airdrop with cheapest price but if hold maybe I can get more than $2,000 from this coin airdrop.

Not only games are the strong features of solana there are defi projects under their umbrella and seems to have a huge potential. For me their main are those hype games like star atlas and many more. Seems to be like solana will be a better contender than dot ecosystem.

If you check out all game projects under them surely they will get a huge pump.

now i felt bitter , had been holding my solana for 2 years and had sold all of them last month because of desperation and no good movement for long.

though lucky still because i converted all the funds to Ripple in which climbed good also this whole week.

but still i felt guilty as not containing solana for another weeks before this pump happen.

I think not just you who feel guilty but other people who have Solana in the past and sold their Solana too early regret their decision. If they can hold it until now, they will make a lot of money but it already happens and nothing they can do. You are lucky to convert your funds to Ripple so you can hope that Ripple will follow the other coins increases and make a new ATH. But that is just a prediction which we do not know for sure and only hope that one or more coins that we have will rise.

The reason why Solana pump it's because Mango Market $70.5M sale,  $SOL ecosystem. TVL at an ATH $1.8B, 10,000+ people waited for the DegenApeAcademy drop sold out in 8 minutes, $9M in volume day 1, Solana Popularity on Coinbase #63 most held and the one more thing is Solana hits 1 Billion USDC in circulation.

Yeah and yesterday Solana had reached the new ATH from years ago of continues dumping https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/solana/ yesterday the price finally Hit 81.81$ in which the highest from the last 2 years  ago.

from 1$ value back in January now a climb to the highest , wondering how those who hold this coin feels now .

Maybe the investors see that there is a good gap in the Solana coin as has happened to Dogecoin so they are sure to collect a lot of Solana coins. Then the seriousness of the team in developing this coin in my opinion is a factor so that Solana's coin has increased 77% as it is today. Surely this will be very pleasant for those who buy SOL coins at a time of low prices.

In addition to all the reason explained above, i think sol has a great community support that understand the project and willing to hold instead of constant market manipulations like some project do with the whales, sol is increasing almost everyday because the holders believe in it and don't sell for every little price increment, other project with similar potential like sol are out there but most of them have big whales manipulating the price and preventing the ability of price to grow the way it should.

Solana's biggest influence right now is very big, a lot has happened, a big pump, because it's so big, with all of that, it can be seen that the price of Solana has gone up so high, it's no wonder that Solana has a huge selling price. Solana will continue to go up so much that has happened the main factor that makes the price go up faster so Solana will go up as soon as will make the price keeps going up.

The pump that happened to Solana Coin was related to the launch of the wormhole bridge, Solana blockchain's first NFT platform, Solanart. Maybe it's the reason that made Solana up 70% in this week's data count or there is another reason that I don't know.

Solana is one of the altcoins that has very good prospects in the future, because of its very high potential, this can be seen from the last few days that Solana has increased by 70% so that solana can beat the popularity of polkadot, litecoin, XRP and TRX, in my opinion maybe the main factor for the increase  solana is a crypto-based game that uses the solana blockchain network.

To be honest, Solana caught everyone off guard, and if my calculations are true, SOL coin has reached another another all-time high. Even when the market is correcting, the price of the SOL coin continues to rise, and it's worth noting that as the SOL currency rises, so do the majority of the tokens on its blockchain.

I was surprised that suddenly Solana climbed at the top 10 that easily. This project has a lot to offer that's why investors are getting hyped about it. However, as my principle in investing, I would not invest at the current price because of the significant increases in just less than a year, I'm thinking of a possible heavy correction, just trying to play safe here.

Easy for altcoin have own their blockchain pump to higher price like Solana coin and support with many bigger exchange listing why make Solana coin until right now raise ore than 700% from ICO price. Many investor keep holding this coin from $1 have raise much profit and keep get chance will be the same like ethereum or BNB coin.

I think it is quite obvious that Solana got the pump because they were seen as "these guys are doing something" in a world where all other coins look like they are not really doing something. Don't get me wrong there are others that are doing "something" but not something new or brave or bold, they are doing things that everyone else does, and Solana out there trying to carve themselves a huge piece of the NFT pie and that is a big deal, why? Because, right now it is dominated by ETH market and that is very expensive because of the gas fee.

What does that tell us? When solana took over and did something major to include them, that means that you get to pay very little, nearly nothing, to do what you do at ETH with $40 gas fee and approval, which is why people moved to Solana and that caused the increase, it is still not at ETH level, not even near there, but it is at least getting more attention now.

Solana reached an all-time high of 82USD, but due to the movements of BTC it has been falling a bit, it is a normal pullback, however it is likely that now the bulls of Sol want to see more action, I do not think they will drop the price much:

For now the price of Solana is sustained by investors who decided to enter the coin on time, so much so that it caused a historical maximum, some say it can reach $ 100, although it seems very optimistic to me it is quite likely that it will happen.

By looking at the development of the Solana coin so far, I'm sure this is still not finished and will not stop here,
with the support of large exchanges indeed it is very helpful in terms of increasing the price,
what is clear for now is to just follow the developments

There is a lot of new in Solana now.
After I created this thread, I just checked everything again in Solana since the last time I was active in Solana Ecosystem was 3-5 months ago which there are still very few projects.

But if you take a look now, Defi on Solana is performing. There are a lot of new now, yield farmings, liquidity pools, and bridging to other networks. I believe this is could be one of the reasons too.

Solana is comparatively a new coin but it made headlines last week when pumped so hard. The only convincing reason of such huge pump could be , some big investors have launched their project on Solana network that is why it pumped so hard if it was not  done deliberately by some whales to book short term gains as the gains have been sustained so it was a genuine pump. Solana, the native token of Solana, a public blockchain that is backed by Sam Bankman-Fried, the founder of crypto exchange FTX, logged a record high price Monday of $69, according to data from FTX and TradingView.

https://www.coindesk.com/solana-terra-hit-all-time-highs-as-markets-disregard-last-weeks-defi-hacks

because this coin sleeps long than i expected so what should i do when the market is pumping ?  but at least I am not a total failure because the coin i choose tor e invest brings me enough profit though too low than what will solana gives me .
Exactly though i felt late now if i will invest and may cross the boundary of dumping season .

Maybe i will give up on this one and will look for another potentially investing coin.

With the way improvements are made to coins these days, I am not shocked that many more are getting bigger and bigger. Obviously it is going to take some time before we could actually see them impact our world in a way that it creates an insane hype, but I do believe that we are doing not that bad for now neither. So long story short, we actually have some sort of accumulation phase with all these developments.

I mean yeah solana got up in the price but that is just a hype on what is going on, it will grow, there is a difference between a pump and a growth and I believe that what we had was a pump just like the title says but the reality is that we are going to have a growth, which will be more sustainable and it will definitely impact our profits as well. It is going to be so sweet that I can't believe how much money we will make when that growth starts.

Solana move very faster and now they have many kind of coin support with solana network although only with raydium exchange and looks not popular in cryptocurrency, but they have launch own exchange and give good reputation for solana coin keep going up, when launching new solana coin network and more increase up than ICO price give more effect solana coin will be the same like BNB, just wait moment when Solana coin have price like BNB coin.

How could you say that it could take the BNB on price .We all know BNB has a great and established platform on crypto and SOL is a very new project on this platform  .Its getting more hype without having something special on it .I am just watching that they have some gaming feature and they are establishing their on blockchain and the project as well .So that it is an ordinary work that crypto project wants to do .Still its overpriced to me .

Well, Solana has not done badly at all, although its last support was at the levels of 58usd now the price is at 73.34USD, the bulls are in a great job of much recognition, the technical indicators give the following:

https://i.imgur.com/HkPJHMr.png

Everyone is now waiting to see until what price can come, the bulls have not found much offer at the levels of 70-73usd it is likely that it can reach at least 80usd if BTC is one in a bullish trend.

It's not too high compared to $DOGE that sit on #7, $XRP on #5 on and $ADA on #3 spot on coinmarketcap. All these 3 project has a shit usability and just hyped compared to $SOL that has a lot of potential to beat all the leading blockchain available in the market. Solana is backed by tons of VC and under the FTX guidance for development. This project is still undervalue until its market cap was closed ADA and BNB.

My friend once told me Solana has solved the problem lying inside ethereum blockchain for many years. Therefore, it has the capability to delivery a large amount of tokens within few seconds. As you can see, there have been a lots of projects built on Solana blockchain right now. Maybe it is the fundamental for the recent increase

Update: Solana has surpassed $80 while bitcoin is struggling to maintain above $50000

Solana is still Pumping , with a High increase just for today of 21% growth making this coin the highest growing coin recording this day.
maybe the Bully is still not ending here and SOL might reach 100$ value in soonest time.
Well it is still not comparable to Bitcoin , solana still 24 billion in capitalization while Bitcoin is nearing 1 trillion again.
As of this post, SOL valuing 83$ that is 10 dollars increase in just few hours.

Except price of solana going up I like that network because not any problem for sending or receiving coin, you make transaction with Solana coin network most faster than all network from BSC, ERC20, TRC and Waves network. I think really amazing if Solana adopted as legal currency transaction because they can make efficient all your transaction.

I finally got some sol coins to hold long term, the way I see the movement of sol, it can hit $100 in no time, even though I seem late to the party it is better than when sol become trading at bnb current price,  I believe it is very possible to see sol that high in the near future, as long as the network keeps developing and expanding sol price will be unstoppable.

According to the analysis of this article, Sol can reach its mark of 118USD again, it is something that can happen if the bulls propose it and if the BTC market allows it, that is, it continues to rise, it can be reached very fast:

Expectations are very high for Solana to continue rising, most of the people who are investing hope that it can reach 120usd, in any case we must wait, it cannot happen so suddenly, can it?

The expectations of Sol are happening very quickly, as many are waiting at the price of 100usd, it is something that can happen and according to the technical indicators they are pointing that it may soon reach 63usd if a very bearish attack occurs:

According to many articles that I have seen, it is likely that solana will continue to gain more investors, it is making a lot of noise and it is an ideal time to enter investing.

actually it is not the way i express my opinion because i have just sold mine recently and this is how i felt the bitterness .
 i have still something to do, and that is  to keep holding my Bitcoin in which the currency i exchange for my solana and i jave a big trust in this one so maybe i'll get my prize sooner.
and talking about prizes , bitcoin again crossed 49k today meaning i have something good coming 

https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/bitcoin/

Solona is very profitable, but honestly, I would not ride at this state now as I know soon there will be a price correction. I just feel it's overvalued at the moment and I'm thinking of buying it when the price dump to more than half of the current price. I believe Solona has a great future but because of hype, this coin has become overvalued, I could be wrong but this is my honest opinion.

I am quite certain that Solana will be $100 by September 5. Also, if many of you missed the low buying opportunity, I reckon that there are some very good projects in the Solana ecosystem that are quite undervalued. Serum, Step Finance, Oxygen Protocol and Maps.

Look it is definitely not a problem for solona to be high, nobody is saying that it should not be high, however just because the network is done good doesn't mean that it will stay high forever, we may end up seeing solona being absolutely nothing at all, and I do not see that as a possible long term deal for solona.

ADA is literally the same, it is third biggest coin right now but it is hyped, it is hyped out of logic and people are acting as if ada is deserving that spot, we all know that it is not. Why do I think that? Well bitcoin is at the top because it is bitcoin, ethereum is at second because we all know how many projects uses it and how hard it is shipped by the community, bnb has binance behind it and BSC community as well, what does ADA have? People who think it will go up, not users, not community, just traders who want to profit and that's all, same as solona. If only thing keeping you up is investors, then you will fall down.

I think SOL has had a good pump cycle from some important updates coming from its platform, for example,
on August 25, the Pyth Network project officially announced its arrival on Solana.
On August 26, Solana announced the integration of Chainlink into the platform...
Therefore, Sol is likely to be a very healthy altcoin this month even though bitcoin's trend is not volatile enough for a breakout. Sol keeps making new ATHs, but if the excitement is here, then I suspect bitcoin will lose its direction in early September, which it has to due to long standing positions.

we can see it from the updates and events carried out for this year. of course, it could lead to increased adoption. it's only natural that the price of SOL will continue to print new ATH.
for those who do long-term planning, I think it is still very profitable. but for the short term, we have to really pay attention to the state of the market.

Those updates affects how the market is moving right now, there are lots of investors who are now investing to this asset.

Still moving green, 35% increased within a week and 7% 24hrs movement, good enough for long term holders, the party still ongoing and if you
have decent spare this coin will be fit to your long term investment.

Just don't forget to do your DYOR before you take your ride for a much safer investment.

Most of this development has followed Sol's foundational cross-chain expansion, which means that Sol is in a better position to showcase the upcoming Defi.  Specifically the variety it gives strong signals in most of the daily charts in August. ATH is right now and if it still shows strength in September we will not be skeptical.  This may not be a passing hype

Indeed, Sol is the altcoin that gives strong vitality to the market.  Surely it is not an exaggeration when Sol's ecosystem is expanding rapidly with countless projects in progress so Sol may be transforming strongly and attracting great attention from investors based on  on trading volume.  I think it's time to rate Sol fairly and it's powerful enough to compete with BSC and ETH in the future.

I sold most of my bags at $70 (bought a lot at $20)…

Once I found out how they lied about their coins and how centralized it is, it just concerned me. Won’t be surprised if it goes to 500 this bull run, because that was my initial PT… but I don’t want to risk it anymore.

This is your opinion but if you ask me i don't see the big deal about if they are centralized or decentralized (which i don't think any project really is decentralized) what matters imo is making profit, something majority of crypto investors care more about, sol is making wave now, i see this pump similar to the way bnb spark in price, so probably soon we will see a similar price movement.

It's an impressive result, to be honest. BTW! Perhaps I'm wrong, but we shouldn't expect SOL to be so cheap again.

For the very first time ever, Solana breaks triple-digits! When all these meme coins are gaining market cap, and finally we have SOL, a real cryptocurrency that has received a massive boost recently.

It's okay. Profit is profit already, same with me, I sold some of my SOL for around $70 too. But not all of them, there are a lot of uses of SOL right now besides just holding, you can stake them like wrapping to Marinade SOL then use Saber for Liquidity pools and yield farming.

Ok, $100 was already breached, I am still looking forward that a huge pullback will happen, probably we will still see Solana back to 2 digits for sure.

I am surprised that Solana is giving more bullish surprises, its volume is very high and apparently it can continue to rise, at this time the price of Sol is around 116USD not bad, now the technical indicators give the following:

Those who are entering Sol are not doing it wrong, for now I think it can continue to give more bullish surprises, however it is necessary to be cautious about the risk involved in this type of investment.

Fast-forward to today, right now sol is literally killing it, breaking all boundaries and going higher, i won't be surprise to see $150 by weekend, this coin is in sane and the ecosystem is growing so rapidly, am really in regret i miss the chance to buy sol at a very cheap price, just few months ago sol was $2, see how it has performed ever since, there is nothing more satisfying than investing in a good project and watch it grow, i believe there is still more to come, thumbs up for the team and investors.

If we have a coin of the week or the month, the winner should be SOL.
As we can see on its one-month movement, https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/solana/, it's very steady.

The lowest was $36 and now the price is already trading at $148, that's a 400% increase in just one month, the hype is really on.

@freedomgo. Agreed and it appears that investors that came in the cryptospace after 2019 do not care about crypto idealism and they are very quick to dump Ethereum and Binance smartchain to buy the presently most popular projects.

Solana’s open interest is almost $1.5 billion.

$200 is not something that SOL is hard to reach for now. the final price was very close to $200. and I guess it's achievable for the pump this time.
but if anyone wants to enter at this time, I think to stay alert for a correction that could occur. although the pump rally continues. but it would be highly recommended to enter in day trading or short term only.

this is be one of strongest coins that survive from last market shaking , it could stable around 25$ while another coins dumped hardly. And today solana price reach consistant move above $100, in near future it could projected above $200 if market sentiment and condition stay good.

that good profits when you able earn 2.5x profits from initial balance. with that profits we could invest in another coins and accumulate profits again. maybe risking some money to new potential project could give us higher profits potency as long as we research and filtering strictly.

It was truly a remarkable achievement of course even if it was less than a month,
This is also interesting because how long will the development of sol prices continue,
To be clear, I think it's better to just continue to follow the developments

Solana is having one of the best rallies ever happened to top 20 coins lately. I feel like NFT market desire drives Solana price. Even though rally is awesome, its better to stay cautious right now and wait for correction. I have some amount of Solana I was holding for months. Still holding it tight.

just look over at Solana recent rallies, perform it higher up and everybody has been taking with regards to it. Sol make the noise, everything's I've hearing is Sol. A particularly insane numbers at this moment, anybody got some insight just curious. Yes, we're expecting a correction. You should stay away since it's already pumped. Chase green won't be a wise idea.

For sure you are enjoying all those profits that you are now seeing from your wallet ;)

Solana for the past months really pumped high all those early believers like you are now in a very decent profits, same with those replies here
they've got huge pumped from their initial investment.

Keep watching and see if how much more this coin will bring to your wallet, good job for taking time waiting for much higher profits.

Solana is in an unprecedented uptrend, at the moment it is at 160USD, some want to lower it to 150usd even the bearish want to have it at 135USD, according to cointelegraph gives the following:

Depending on how things are going, apparently Solana can continue to rise much more, the ivnersión is taking place with more and more force, if things continue like this and the btc rising, it cannot be ruled out that it will reach 200USD.

I am pretty sure that the only thing that is guaranteed in the current situation is that NFT market moved from ETH to Solana a lot. Back in last spring or even winter we saw a lot of ETH money on DeFi moving to BSC because ETH was expensive and it was causing a lot of problems to people, I mean who would want to spend tens of dollars just to move money around? I still have 20 bucks in USDT there that I can't exchange because it requires more than 20 bucks to swap it.

BSC took advantage of that and became third biggest coin during that period only from people running away from ETH and running into BSC (also BNB of course). Same is happening right now, NFT market is huge in ETH but people are looking for other places, binance couldn't capitalize on it too much because there isn't much games there, but that ended up with basically having Solana a whole new world for them.

Now we're getting into FOMO territory. My only concern is how many millionaires were made. It's crazy, even with the dumps, it's still going up. It appears that some ALT coins have added to the Sol rally. I wonder how much this one will increase. Solana is poised for huge profits, but shouldn't we consider it very early for Solana?

It bothers me to compare ETH with SOL or SOL with ETH. The two masterpieces each stand out in their own way. Sol is a relatively new project with great potential.

Solana has been one of the most winning coins for a long time, it achieved a great pump that reached 198USD and now with everything that has been corrected it has dropped to 130USD, it is seen that it can continue to increase because the volume of purchases has not lowered a lot:

This coin has been gaining many investors, in fact they have managed to create more community and more followers, this has made it possible for the price to continue growing if the BTC increases.

solana offers or better than ethereum of higher transactions per second and lower fees and speed of transactions, and they make a hackaton or whoever wants to join the solana network and will finance the startup.
maybe solana can reach the 3rd position in the near future, or if possible will beat ethereum.

It's in a pretty good price rise. Actually we expected it to be like this, investors were looking for something cheaper and faster than Ethereum. The new things about Solana in the last few weeks have accelerated this.
The price continued to rise while waiting for the rise to stop. While the price of everything was falling, the price of the faded one did not fall. Now we can say that it is really powerful. I wonder how high it can go :)

solana had a rise it was the right time.  because solana network is getting more and more popular in the future and now solana has a strong community.  solana network has advantages over other networks such as BSC or ETH.  that's why solana gets pumped easily now

Not a huge fan of Solana.

I think that their platform is definitely overblown and not ready for mainstream adoption. People are just jumping on the bandwagon because they think that price is going to be higher in the future, not necessarily for the platform.

Buy the rumour, sell the news. This is already news.

Solana super Sonic climb surprised everyone, it is only 31$ on August but is reach 139$ on September 3, that was a massive rise it is surge almost 500 percent during the month that was really amazing. I think the strong inflows from the institutional investors as well as it's rapid adoption as a NFT platform lead to this rally.

exactly buddy, solana net have a big potential in current year, all projects will take ATH.

- This new giant Solana is really more technologically modified but the brand is a symbol of the value and trust of the users, so even if Solana is a bit better than eth or bsc, it also did not become the subject of the crowd as it is now when eth and bsc are considered genuine brands, Solana is just a small brand. But the advantage of smallness is perfect fundraising, this ecosystem integrates and supports downline projects, gaining satisfaction and trust from the creators and a strong increase is also a possible

From the get go, it is awesome in light of the fact that more exchanges are currently in a square and it has greater limit like 100 exchanges each second yet at second sight, huge squares are truly downright terrible a blockchain long haul. Their environment is very a long way from metamask expansion however they are building their own framework and different financial backers and whales are perceiving how it got further developed that is the reason they purchased in.

Solana has a big project and a lot of people are interested in it. many people were also shocked by what happened to Solana. The price goes up so fast that many people glance and find out why and when they get an answer, they are interested and start investing.

Then did you also look for that information about why Solana was able to climb so fast? if you've ever been looking for it, try to tell me here what things make Solana can rise so fast that Solana is getting a lot of attention by everyone now.

Solana pump is fueled by various ecosystem dApps using the blockchain to launch their products especially with the rave of NFT and DEXs springing up. It was first ETH, then Binance Smart Chain, now it's Solana's turn.

solana have good fundamental which is it solve main problem in crypto market now. with cheap and low transaction fee it help alot traders, investors or even developers team to use this platform. price move strongly to last dip on around 30$ till now hit all time high around 215$, investors believe solana decouple with bitcoin and recent dump to bitcoin didnt give significant effect solana price.

Solana is an example of hard pumping. Early investor tokens were unlocked this year. And in reality, they should take profits by selling at the market. This is normal for institutional investors. But elshl does not happen in view of the conspiracy of large Solana investors in order to raise the price and then gradually sell, leaving those who bought on the hype in the fools

But just like any project, the hype will eventually dump and the price will correct. It's normal to see this kind of project that has pumped multiple times, if big investors are not willing to sell their holdings, that will easily raise the price to the upper ground as fresh money is coming on a hype project.

I don't see any difference of this project compared to ETH and BNB, they have their time and now let Solana shine but the real battle is in the long run.

Congratulation! generally people don't' hold coins for such a long time and sell them quickly  when they see some profit but real profit is harvested by long term investors like you. Patience is the key of success when it comes to investment, either in stocks, crypto or Real estate. Having said that, it is also important that you should choose projects those have growth potential like Solana otherwise your investment will never work out.

I see a lot of people here who thinks that SOL will be even bigger than ETH or at least it will be bigger than what it is right now all because it is better than ETH on blockchain development. I have to remind everyone that firstly ADA has still not provided smart contracts and yet it is third ranked, and bitcoin? That doesn't even have half of the achievements ETH has and still ranked first, doge? That is a useless blockchain with probably the worst cared development process ever and ranks at top 10.

All in all, just because a coin has a good blockchain doesn't mean that it will be great, and just because it has a bad blockchain doesn't mean it will rank low. There are coins with great blockchain that is ranked high or low. Solana looks like a great project, and it may ranked even higher, or there is a chance that this was the top and it may not break any higher ranking. We should be careful.

Great holding skills, that would be x100 of your original purchase soon, and only few investors could hold that long. If that's in my case, I would gladly sell it and take a x100 profit of my investment, then if the market will correct, I will start accumulating again as I believe SOL is a big project that has a big potential in the long run.

Solana shows herself perfectly and this is not surprising, because everyone who can pour money into this murderer of Ether.
Solana is predicted to bypass the ether and take its place. I hope it will be so.

I have written an article about this recently. It is obvious that people are pricing what solana could be and not what it is. I would say wait a bit more, wait until there is a good project in the SOL ecosystem that people love to use, then get in early to both SOL and into that project if you want to, or just SOL if you want to. The reason why ETH stood strong on the huge drop we had at the start of the month (when bitcoin went from 52k to crash drop to 42k but recovered to 48k again a week later) because Axie was loved in ETH ecosystem.

So, when there is a project that everyone loves in an ecosystem that increases the value of the blockchain it is in. I believe SOL is overpriced right now, it should not be this high and it could be dropping more in the future, for the time being we should be focusing on what we can do with the future projects that happens in SOL.

Solana is a currency that is giving very good results, it was at one point below 150USD, even 135USD but at the moment with a price above 200USD it is not bad at all, according to the short-term cointelegraph they show the following:

Some think that the price of the sun may reach 185USD, but the truth is I do not think it will drop that much in price, in fact it is a currency that can continue to give bullish surprises.
