Why Solana ($SOL) Is Quietly Building Toward a Breakout

[EchoCatalyst]

While most eyes are still glued to BTC and ETH, $SOL has been moving differently.

DeFi activity on Solana has steadily increased since Q2

NFT volumes are picking back up — especially on Tensor

And unlike ETH, Solana gas fees are still close to zero

We’re also seeing more meme coins launching on SOL, and some of them are bringing in real liquidity (not just hype).

It’s not making headlines yet, but the chain is alive — and that matters.

If BTC chops and ETH stalls, I think SOL could surprise people this summer.
Just watching quietly for now. Curious what others think.

I think SOL could surprise people this summer.

I think it could too.
Unlike Bitcoin (which will always have first position in the crypto sphere) and Ether (which allows for smart contracts & decentralized apps to be utilized on its' platform) Solana has the advantage of building upon the strength of Bitcoin plus the speed/scalability that Ether posseses.

A good combination any day of the week.

Solana is a fresh network despite its repeated network outages, which makes it not 100% reliable all the time. Another downside is its high inflation, despite this, I still consider that Solana is a good investment.

which makes it not 100% reliable all the time

Which is probably the one thing holding it back.
Fix that and it will rocket.

Perhaps, but they have been dealing with these issues for a long time and should fix it as soon as possible, time is passing and the competition is increasing.
