Solana continues to demonstrate network growth and market resilience, recently reclaiming the $105 price level after a dip to $96. This recovery follows a major network upgrade that increased block production speed by approximately 17%, reducing block times from 300 to 250 milliseconds. The price movement occurred despite market uncertainty following the US Senate’s vote against the CLARITY Act and a 25 basis point interest rate hike by the Federal Reserve. On-chain utility remains a significant driver. The Real-World Asset (RWA) sector is seeing structural expansion, with the total value of tokenized assets reaching approximately $38.25 billion.
