Solana has enjoyed an uptick in price, surpassing the $100 mark for the first time in over ten days.
However, trending crypto Bitcoin Minetrix is seeing even more bullish momentum as its presale quickly approaches $10 million.

Solana has outpaced other top 10 players today, up 7.08%. It has also performed notably well this week, up 28%.
It is currently the fifth largest cryptocurrency, following BNB, USDT, ETH, and BTC. It holds a $45 billion market cap and a $2.9 billion 24-hour trading volume, up 29% today.
The recent surge in interest in Solana is attributed to on-chain advancements.
Solana-based liquidity aggregation DEX Jupiter has seen a substantial rise in trading volume, with users anticipating an airdrop ahead of its 31 January token launch.&nbsp;
The network recently flipped Uniswap in trading volume, per <a href="https://www.coingecko.com/en/exchanges/decentralized" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">CoinGecko data</a>. This displays notable interest in the protocol and the broader Solana ecosystem.
Uniswap has since overtaken Jupiter again, but Jupiter remains the second-highest DEX, holding a 14.4% market share by trading volume.

Interest in Jupiter is significant because it has led to massive liquidity inflows into the Solana blockchain, likely the catalyst behind its recent price surge.
This is evident in DeFiLlama data, showing that <a href="https://defillama.com/chain/Solana?fees=false&amp;revenue=false&amp;stables=true&amp;inflows=false&amp;derivatives=false&amp;aggregators=false" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Solana’s TVL</a> and stablecoins are at their highest levels since Q3 2022.

Meanwhile, data from The Block shows that <a href="https://www.theblock.co/data/on-chain-metrics/solana/number-of-active-addresses-on-the-solana-network-daily-7dma" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Solana’s daily active addresses</a> are also growing, currently approaching the highest yearly level.
<figure class="wp-block-image"><img decoding="async" src="https://lh7-us.googleusercontent.com/INyqPEGfCAl1scpC5CT_bQGjGF7z53iezO4GAG7HG8XTVgaDDXd3AsAJA0SEy1ThXGAq1thLA4jGzM4Yzc5D6xCke3vdu4ZKuBaTzCJ1djR3HV_0sHaVgs-zFut6GS9XgS3yO_srWhtu-R6ETknL15ld52JY-tXzxcmTSczWzqOZ27O69PwHcY9oAK7J_g" alt="solana-active-adress">

These metrics illustrate a brewing excitement surrounding the Solana chain, which is also evident in expert analyses of where its price could be headed.
X analyst ChristiaanDefi <a href="https://twitter.com/ChristiaanDefi/status/1752274346142580763?s=20" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">recently announced</a> his long-term Solana target is $500, almost 5x from its current price.
The analyst also predicts short-term price targets of $137, $163, $194, and $225.
Christiaan backs his forecast with technical analysis, referencing a trend line support and bullish moving average indicators.

However, he also speculates that a Solana ETF could be in the pipeline. While this may seem far-fetched, BlackRock’s proactive steps in its Ethereum ETF efforts mean a Solana ETF should not be ruled out.
Meanwhile, respected analyst Michael van de Poppe <a href="https://x.com/CryptoMichNL/status/1751719296609419670?s=20" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">anticipates</a> a move to $140 for Solana after “a higher timeframe support test at $80 provided support.”
Michael alludes to Solana’s earlier pullback: “After the initial push upwards, there’s always a period of consolidation, and it seems it’s ended.”
<figure class="wp-block-image"><img decoding="async" src="https://lh7-us.googleusercontent.com/9PQPa5ZXb08WGPLF5128sJDhKCJCkTxT1aBJKv-94dwTrSMvIGAlCGR_Nk84cEU8GNLSh-YOyjsPuvJiFAY1YMGstVNcCrvlfkmFB2xPe49WBNd4rlq1-8e79JlsmuPMxAOoJMVR462bhyHyNE468BJRkaEPyQQfpbQzRaRc5QVD0pha7roq9_lw7KQedQ" alt="chart">

The Solana network is seeing rising interest following a period of relative inactivity.&nbsp;
But Solana is not the only crypto experiencing such momentum. New presale Bitcoin Minetrix is also drawing attention thanks to its captivating use case and early presale success. Will this be the next altcoin to explode?
<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-new-altcoin-bitcoin-minetrix-nears-10m-at-presale-could-it-explode">New Altcoin Bitcoin Minetrix Nears $10M at Presale – Could it Explode?</h2>
<a href="https://bs_b96bd0a7.crypto-news.care/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Bitcoin Minetrix</a> is a new Stake-to-Mine cryptocurrency, enabling users to cloud-mine Bitcoin by staking $BTCMTX tokens on its Ethereum-based platform.
The process is simple: users simply stake $BTCMTX for Bitcoin mining credits, which they can burn for cloud mining power, translating to free Bitcoin.
<figure class="wp-block-image"><img decoding="async" src="https://lh7-us.googleusercontent.com/F4W9WKC8-weNgjt7JXlRnxqtuWW4BeOuje-XFzgJYEpC1U8gYT9dXoE98EcsL1OjSxFvQ29L8AsYb2EirSXmIRfQvH7tF1HEX-a6WdkeNf1EK-aYtGzCh5cmOGBNl8dA-T5Fst8E2w6Ni2M1j1a4Y504y8c79qV4x5lyg5epsyZb3P0WMpunJ1_vBdMPVA" alt="btc-minetrix">
</figure>
This use case enables anyone to mine Bitcoin without expensive hardware or technical complexities. Furthermore, the project removes the space and noise constraints associated with Bitcoin mining and offers a more green alternative.
Bitcoin Minetrix also eradicates the risk of cloud mining scams with its decentralized and transparent $BTCMTX token.&nbsp;
These scams became a significant issue in the industry. The Bitcoin Minetrix <a href="https://bitcoinminetrix.com/assets/documents/whitepaper.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">whitepaper</a> explains that earlier solutions would entice users with decent returns but later present “unwarranted complications” once users increased their deposits.
Bitcoin Minetrix has also received a smart contract <a href="https://bitcoinminetrix.com/assets/documents/audit.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">audit</a>, attesting to its commitment to transparency and security.&nbsp;
Another benefit over competitor solutions is Bitcoin Minetrix’s variable lock-in period, empowering users to control how long they stake their tokens.
The Bitcoin Minetrix presale is ongoing, but users can start staking immediately. The current staking APY is 68%, but this will decrease as the staking pool grows.
