Jito

<ul>
 <li><strong>At the time of writing, SOL is trading at $73.16, up 15.54% in the last 24 hours.</strong></li>
 <li><strong>If the price manages to go above $78.4 level, then it will likely test $90.2 resistance level.</strong></li>
</ul>
<p>It is possible that the recent price spike of SOL was caused by the issuance of Jito tokens to users of Solana. The Jito Network airdrop caused the JTO token to surge 88% to a new all-time high of $3.18, much to the delight of the Solana community.</p>
<p>Thanks to consistent trading worth over $1 billion, Jito’s airdrop didn’t lead to a price drop—unlike previous airdrops that often result in tokens being sold off fast and lowering the token’s value. Moreover, several of Solana’s DeFi platforms and <a href="https://thenewscrypto.com/solanas-mad-lads-nfts-hit-record-breaking-all-time-high/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">NFT</a> markets have seen an increase in adoption in the last few weeks, which is a key indicator of the steady rise in use that has allowed it achieve positive results.</p>

<p>Even though SOL consolidated between $60 and $65 last week, it resumed its upward trend today. With a 400% increase in the last six months, <a href="https://thenewscrypto.com/ethereum-and-solana-lead-crypto-rally-as-bitcoin-faces-correction/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Solana</a> has reached its highest price since May 2022, with a recent 15% daily leap to above $73.</p>
