Solana has once again captured the limelight by rallying from $21 in mid-October to nearly $45 last week. It has solidified its position as a top 10 cryptocurrency. The impressive part here is that this surge is a happened right after the disastrous FTX collapse.
After the <a href="https://news.todayq.com/u-s-sec-ramps-up-crypto-enforcement-actions-after-ftx-bankruptcy-facing-criticism-for-neglect/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">debacle</a> SOL traded under $10 for a brief period. The extraordinary price gains have been partly driven by surging activity on the network. Its liquid staking token protocols like Jito have been successful in boosting activity on the network.
Often referred to as an “alt L1,” Solana is frequently compared to Ethereum (ETH). Since September, it has emerged as the clear outperformer.
The ratio between the two has jumped from 0.011 to nearly 0.025. This is higher than the ratio recorded from just before FTX’s collapse. Ethereum, despite being the second largest cryptocurrency has been facing issues with <a href="https://news.todayq.com/ethereums-new-roadmap-will-ensure-neutral-transactions-and-address-centralization/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">scalability</a> and network <a href="https://news.todayq.com/jp-morgan-links-ethereums-staking-to-centralization/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">centralization due to heavy staking</a> in pools.

On the other hand, Korea’s leading exchange, Upbit, has taken a unique path. They have sold a net of nearly 4 million SOL tokens.
These moves underline the diverse nature of the cryptocurrency sector. Korean markets have exhibited distinct behaviour with regulators imposing <a href="https://news.todayq.com/south-korea-starts-discussions-on-crypto-regulation-prioritizes-investors-safety/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">strict guidelines</a> market corrections impacting trading for investors. Solana beats major Altcoins 
SOL’s dominance is further highlighted by its ranking as the most traded altcoin on US exchanges this year. It has outpaced the likes of DOGE, LTC, MATIC, and XRP.
This turnaround for altcoins in the U.S. comes after a tough start to the year. After <a href="https://news.todayq.com/xrps-court-ruling-and-its-subsequent-rally-has-made-it-the-largest-altcoin/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Ripple’s court victory</a>, XRP also had a positive brief period, where it <a href="https://news.todayq.com/bitcoin-dominates-as-altcoins-suffer-in-q2-2023-xrps-rally-offers-glimpse-of-hope/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">rallied 83%</a>.

With Solana’s growth exceeding 200% since the start of 2023, the total value locked in the Solana ecosystem has reached an impressive $378 million. Asset management firm VanEck has <a href="https://news.todayq.com/report-solana-could-grow-10600-by-2030/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">forecasted significant price gains </a>as SOL surpassed the $32 mark.
Their report presents a wide range of valuation scenarios, from a conservative estimate of $9.81 to an ambitious $3,211.28 by 2030. It potentially signals a remarkable 10,600% price surge for Solana.
VanEck’s bullish call positions Solana are serious challenger to Ethereum, which has its target price set at $11,800. As of writing, Ethereum is trading at $1,886.76, down 0.34% since yesterday.
The report envisioned Solana as the top blockchain network capable of handling over 100 million users. VanEck’s involvement extends beyond this report, as they have previously submitted Bitcoin exchange-traded fund applications to the United States Securities and Exchange Commission.
