According to key data from Glassnode, the launch of the TRUMP meme coin led to increased activity within the Solana network. The number of active addresses on Solana has increased dramatically, reaching 832,000 addresses per hour. This is an impressive achievement, demonstrating Solana’s ability to handle and attract significant user engagement.
This increase in activity highlights Solana’s growing appeal as a blockchain for high-speed, high-volume applications, particularly in the memecoin sector. As the market continues to speculate on Solana’s price movements, its strong network fundamentals point to a foundation that can withstand current volatility and drive long-term growth. Investors and analysts are watching closely whether this uptick in activity can sustain Solana’s momentum in the coming weeks.
The Solana network is growing rapidly
After a period of market consolidation, Solana remained strong, just below its all-time high, positioning itself as a leading force poised for a massive rally. Analysts and investors are closely monitoring Solana’s price action, and expect the breakthrough in price discovery to serve as a catalyst for the next swing season. As the Solana vs. Ethereum debate rages on, recent metrics are revealing compelling insights into the evolving dynamics between the two networks.
Glassnode recently shared a report on X This highlights Solana’s impressive network activity, fueled in part by the launch of Trump’s meme coin. Since this event, the Solana ecosystem has seen a surge in user engagement, with active addresses reaching an extraordinary figure of 832,000 per hour. This number dwarfs the activity of Ethereum, which currently averages just 31,000 active addresses per hour – a stark contrast that highlights a significant shift in user focus towards Solana.
This data not only showcases Solana’s scalability and ability to handle large transaction volumes, but also reinforces its reputation as a preferred network for startup projects, especially in the meme sector. As investors continue to evaluate Solana’s potential, its strong fundamentals and growing ecosystem suggest it is well-equipped to lead the next phase of market growth.

With strong user activity and a growing base of developers and projects, Solana appears poised to cement its place as a major player in the cryptocurrency space, rivaling Ethereum’s dominance. The coming weeks will be crucial as Solana strives to maintain his momentum and meet investors’ expectations.
Price action details: key supply levels
Solana (SOL) is currently trading at $256, maintaining its position above the key demand level that has provided strong support in recent sessions. This resilience has kept bullish sentiment intact, as traders eye further upside potential. However, the focus is now shifting to critical supply areas, particularly at $266 and Solana’s all-time high (ATH) price of $295.

A successful rally above $266 could serve as a springboard for SOL to retest ATH, indicating renewed momentum and attracting further buying interest. A break and hold above the $295 level would not only confirm an uptrend, but would also likely send Solana into price discovery, which could ignite enthusiasm across the altcoin market.
Despite the promising outlook, maintaining support above $240 remains crucial to maintaining the bullish thesis. Losing this level could increase selling pressure, which could push Solana into a deeper consolidation or correction phase. Such a move would challenge the current bullish momentum and dampen investor sentiment in the short term.
