Solana is on a tear. It’s currently priced at $43.95, the seventh largest digital asset by market cap, and up more than 20% in the past day, according to CoinGecko. That means it’s shot up nearly 33% in the past week.
The Ethereum competitor is by far the best-performing asset right now—but not long ago it was getting hit by negative news.
Since the beginning of October, interest in the open-source blockchain project has soared: SOL is up 88% in the past 30 days. Not many other coins or digital tokens have been on such a roll.
