Technically, Solana’s price chart is forming a bullish “cup-and-handle” pattern, a classic indicator of a potential rally. If this pattern plays out, Solana could be poised for a massive 2,000% surge, with a potential price target of $4,500 on the horizon.
As Solana continues to dominate both TVL and DEX volume metrics, the blockchain’s ecosystem is seeing renewed interest and excitement from investors and developers alike. With Liquid Staking Tokens gaining traction and Solana’s price chart pointing to a potential breakout, the network is well-positioned for further growth in the coming months.
