Solana price is trending across major platforms as it outshines the entire market regarding network performance, usage, and dominance. The price of SOL rose 6.2% to $193 during the early hours of Monday morning. The increase coincided with Bitcoin surpassing a key resistance level and overall market recovery. 
Furthermore, Solana’s exemplary performance in handling millions of transactions every minute with minimal network outages has cemented it as a plausible layer 1 blockchain. This sentiment is reflected in the rapidly increasing market dominance of crypto assets.

This was likely due to the market-moving events in that week.&nbsp; 
According to Santiment, Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Solana ended last week on a good note; their combined power volume surpassed others like Layer 2s and meme coins.&nbsp;

<a href="https://coingape.com/price/solana">SOL price</a> is trending upward with a significant bullish breakout above the previous resistance level of around $172. This shows a double bottom, a bullish reversal pattern that has finished forming, and indicates more potential upside movement. 
The price of Solana is trending above the 50-day and 200-day EMA, which provide support levels around $159 and $137, respectively. There has been a recent consolidation of around $180, which makes it a zone of minor support.
