Solana is a fast, low-fee blockchain that launched in 2020. It runs smart contracts like Ethereum but processes many more transactions per second. Its coin, SOL, pays fees and is staked to secure the network. It's popular for trading, payments and meme coins. Full Solana fact sheet →
What moves the Solana price
No one sets the Solana price. It's the last price at which buyers and sellers traded on exchanges, averaged across many markets. It moves with demand from investors and traders, news and regulation, interest rates and the wider stock market, big holders buying or selling, and leverage being wiped out in fast drops. Short-term moves are close to impossible to predict. See why crypto prices fall and how to read a crypto chart.
What the numbers mean
- Price is the latest traded price in US dollars, averaged across exchanges. The price on your exchange can differ a little, and buying usually costs more than the quoted price because of spreads and fees (see the true cost calculator).
- 24h change compares now with the price exactly 24 hours ago, and 7-day change with a week ago. The chart shows hourly prices over the last 7 days.
- Market cap is price × coins in circulation. It's a snapshot of size, not money invested (market cap explained).
- Volume is how much was traded in the last 24 hours across tracked exchanges.
- All-time high is the highest price ever recorded and how far today's price is from it.
