Solana Price Rises to $144 as Network Growth Declines

Recent on-chain data indicates a decline in Solana's Network Growth, suggesting weak asset adoption despite recent price recovery.

Key Points

  • The Network Growth metric tracks the weekly number of new addresses active on Solana's blockchain. A decrease in this metric implies fewer new users and possibly lower investor interest.
  • Despite Solana's price recovery from its December lows, the Network Growth has continued to drop, indicating that the price surge hasn't attracted new investors.
  • Historically, sustainable price rallies require an influx of new investors, as increased trading activity fuels momentum.
  • In late 2024, higher Network Growth supported Solana's price increase, while current low levels might hinder long-term recovery.
  • Since November 2024, Network Growth has experienced a downtrend, falling from 30.2 million to 7.3 million addresses.

SOL Price Update

  • Solana's price briefly reached $144 but has since retraced to $139.
