1 min. readSolana, excluding USDT, ranks as the fourth largest blockchain platform. SOL, its native token, has outperformed Bitcoin in the past year. Despite concerns of a delayed market wave, Solana gains momentum, leading in NFTs with a 35% market share. Ethereum lags behind at 16%. Solana attracted 8,400 users in a day, while Polygon drew 6,100. Solana boasts 40,000 weekly active users, surpassing 1.5 million year-to-date. Ethereum leads in trading volume, with $7.3 billion in NFTs traded in a year. Solana's rise is attributed to low fees and scalability. Ethereum's gas fees have decreased due to upgrades like Dencun hard fork. Base, an Ethereum layer-2, attracted 14,500 users. As Solana gains traction, traders anticipate a potential surge to $210 if it breaks above $190.
