Solana to surpass all-time high despite activity decline, expert predicts

As an experienced analyst, I have closely observed the recent developments in the Solana blockchain, and although it has witnessed a 30% drop in total value locked (TVL), I remain optimistic about its future prospects. The decline in Solana’s performance can be attributed to the fall of Bitcoin after its rapid growth in March and the decline in excitement around meme coins on this blockchain.


As an analyst, I’ve observed that Solana experienced a significant decrease of approximately 30% in its total value locked. However, this setback doesn’t necessarily mean the end for Solana. There are indications that it may have the potential to reach new record highs in the near future.

As a crypto investor, I’ve noticed that the decline in decentralized applications’ value, as reported by DefiLlama, amounted to approximately $10 billion in April. Furthermore, the TVL on the Solana blockchain has taken a hit, dropping from its March peak of $4.64 billion down to $3.8 billion at present.

Solana to surpass all-time high despite activity decline, expert predicts

In the midst of waning enthusiasm for meme coins on the Solana blockchain, and following Bitcoin (BTC)’s dramatic drop after its significant surge in March, Solana’s own performance suffered a setback.

Despite a recent drop in Solana’s activity, Tristan Frizza, the founder of Zeta Markets, remains optimistic and thinks that Solana could not only hit but also exceed its previous record high.

As an analyst, I can confidently state that Solana’s ecosystem is not only enduring but thriving. It consistently ranks at the forefront in metrics such as active addresses, transactions, and volumes. The recent issues with network congestion have actually acted as a catalyst for advancements within the network, leading to enhancements in its user interface and the speed of decentralized applications.

Solana aims make headway behind Stripe’s crypto re-entry

Additionally, he noted that recent milestones like Stripe’s adoption and Solana’s live demonstration of mass transactions have strengthened the network’s appeal to retail users and large-scale sales. Consequently, Solana is well-positioned to secure a spot among the leading three ecosystems during this market cycle.

“Solana’s ascent to a top three blockchain by market cap seems inevitable.”

In April, Stripe, a well-known international payment system, declared its re-entry into the cryptocurrency sphere. This marks Stripe’s first foray into crypto transactions since 2018. Starting now, Stripe users can process payments in USDC stablecoin on three distinct blockchains: Solana, Ethereum, and Polygon. The company intends to expand this support to additional digital assets and blockchain platforms in the future.
