 <p>The sharp increase in BTC trading <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="volume" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/volume.html">volume</a>s was accompanied by the approval of spot Bitcoin ETFs on Jan. 10 by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). On the first day, the <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="volume" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/volume.html">volume</a> of exchange trading in new investment instruments exceeded $4.5 billion, and the price of BTC immediately rose to $48,800.</p>
 <p>Another cryptocurrency that set a record was&nbsp;the surging of Solana&nbsp;(SOL). In January, the <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="volume" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/volume.html">volume</a> of transactions on the Solana network was up 30% compared to last <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="month" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/month.html">month</a>. Thus, the figure almost reached $1 trillion – $951.9 billion. Such a surge in activity has not been observed in the SOL blockchain for nearly two years.</p>
 <p>The growth in transaction <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="volume" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/volume.html">volume</a> was primarily due to the excitement around the airdrop from the Jupiter aggregator. In addition, the rise in the value of SOL and the popularity of the new meme coin WEN also affected the indicator.</p>
