Overview

The touted “Ethereum killer” Solana has been on the down-low since its association with the collapsed exchange FTX. However, it seems as though 2023 has new plans for the struggling ecosystem with its native token SOL up by 13% based on CoinGecko figures, Tuesday. This huge uptick in price led to SOL reclaiming double digits after dipping as long as $7.96 back in December 29.  Related Reading: SushiSwap Head Chef Suggests Cooking Up New Token Model – Will The DEX Survive 2023?

Solana has been taking its time in distancing itself from being known as one of the “Sam coins”, with Messari releasing a detailed overview about the ecosystem on December 15.  Solana’s token isn’t the only one that was hit hard, however.

A Breath Of Fresh Air For Solana

After the ecosystem lost most of its value last year, this price pump is a breath of fresh air for investors and holders of SOL. Even though the bears left their mark on investor sentiment on SOL, some are still bullish for a possible reversal.

This, however, is not surprising. Solana has been taking its time in distancing itself from being known as one of the “Sam coins” , with Messari releasing a detailed overview about the ecosystem on December 15.

Solana’s token isn’t the only one that was hit hard, however. Solana’s NFT market has suffered through this whole debacle as DeGods and y00ts, two of the most prominent collections on-chain, decided to migrate to Polygon.
