The Solana price has held still in the past 24 hours, remaining at $115.86 as the crypto market enjoys a 1.5% lift.
Despite not moving today, SOL has surged by 20% in the last seven days, with the altcoin also sitting on a 425% gain in the past year.
Such growth has followed from the performance of the Solana blockchain, which has attracted plenty of NFT usage in recent months and also proven a hotbed for new meme tokens.
