SOL investors are enjoying this year\u2019s festive season as Solana enters the $70 mark today, backed by extremely bullish market conditions. According to <\/span>CoinGecko<\/span><\/a>, the token is up 12% in the weekly timeframe, with the biggest jump in the monthly at 30%.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

A Not-So Far Off Possibility<\/b><\/h2>\n

VanEck recently <\/span>released<\/span><\/a> a list of 15 predictions for the crypto world for 2024. In summary, the post favors a bullish 2024 for crypto, especially in the realms of Web3 gaming and DeFi. According to the prediction, both Web3 and DeFi will start 2024 on a strong note; with Web3 gaming getting a breakout and DeFi finally reconciling with the Know-Your-Customer <\/span>issues<\/span><\/a> it\u2019s known for.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

However, the most eye-catching of these is the speculation that SOL will be part of the spot ETF race in 2024.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

\u201c<\/span>Solana will become a top 3 blockchain by market cap, Total Value Locked (TVL), and active users,\u201d said VanEck in the blog post.\u00a0<\/span><\/h4>\n<\/blockquote>\n

VanEck sees Solana as a top player within the DeFi space, eyeing even the possibility of SOL flipping Ethereum in the long run. This prediction is influenced by the fact that VanEck is running an exchange-traded note (similar to an ETF) with SOL being the underlying asset. This Solana ETN was released in 2021 in the heyday of the crypto boom.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

If Solana does become part of the ETF race in 2024, it will bring in more institutional investors that willing to take some exposure from crypto investments.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Short-Term Pain For Long-Term Gain<\/b><\/h2>\n

The token sits at a high price point after following Bitcoin in its rally. This naturally brought SOL to a position that is slightly untenable in the short term. So far, investors and traders should be careful as the current price level might result in a slight dip in the next couple of days.<\/span><\/p>\n

However, a dip in price shortly shouldn\u2019t be feared. This will only bring SOL in a better position for higher gains. If the token settles on the $70 price level, we might see gains far beyond $80 to $90 in the coming days.<\/span><\/p>\n

For now, the year will end on a positive note as SOL is on the road towards $100.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Apparently, watching his pets just chillin\u2019 helps him analyze and write meticulously formatted articles even better. Here's the thing about this guy: He works a lot, but he keeps himself fueled by enough coffee to make it through the day - and some seriously delicious (Filipino) food. He says a delectable meal is the secret ingredient to a killer article. And after a long day of crypto crusading, he unwinds with some rum (mixed with milk) while watching slapstick movies. Looking ahead, Christian sees a bright future with NewsBTC. He says he sees himself privileged to be part of an awesome organization, sharing his expertise and passion with a community he values, and fellow editors - and bosses - he deeply respects. So, the next time you tread into the world of cryptocurrency, remember the man behind the words \u2013 the crypto crusader, the grease monkey, and the feline philosopher, all rolled into one.","sameAs":["jomarjet01"],"url":"https:\/\/www.wncen.com\/author\/jomarjet01\/"}]}},"parsely":{"version":"1.1.0","meta":{"@context":"https:\/\/schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","headline":"Solana Shows Its Mettle As SOL Barrels Past $70 – Details","url":"http:\/\/www.wncen.com\/news\/solana-enjoys-better-pastures-as-sol-blows-through-70\/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"http:\/\/www.wncen.com\/news\/solana-enjoys-better-pastures-as-sol-blows-through-70\/"},"thumbnailUrl":"https:\/\/www.wncen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/a-93.png?resize=200%2C200","image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https:\/\/www.wncen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/a-93.png?fit=874%2C581"},"articleSection":"Solana","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Christian Encila"}],"creator":["Christian Encila"],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"NewsBTC","logo":"https:\/\/www.wncen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/cropped-cropped-cropped-favicon.png?w=32"},"keywords":["2024 prediction","price analysis","sol","solana","vaneck"],"dateCreated":"2023-12-14T11:30:38Z","datePublished":"2023-12-14T11:30:38Z","dateModified":"2023-12-14T11:30:38Z"},"rendered":"<script type=\"application\/ld+json\">{\"@context\":\"https:\\\/\\\/schema.org\",\"@type\":\"NewsArticle\",\"headline\":\"Solana Shows Its Mettle As SOL Barrels Past $70 – Details\",\"url\":\"http:\\\/\\\/www.wncen.com\\\/news\\\/solana-enjoys-better-pastures-as-sol-blows-through-70\\\/\",\"mainEntityOfPage\":{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"http:\\\/\\\/www.wncen.com\\\/news\\\/solana-enjoys-better-pastures-as-sol-blows-through-70\\\/\"},\"thumbnailUrl\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.wncen.com\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2023\\\/12\\\/a-93.png?resize=200%2C200\",\"image\":{\"@type\":\"ImageObject\",\"url\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.wncen.com\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2023\\\/12\\\/a-93.png?fit=874%2C581\"},\"articleSection\":\"Solana\",\"author\":[{\"@type\":\"Person\",\"name\":\"Christian Encila\"}],\"creator\":[\"Christian Encila\"],\"publisher\":{\"@type\":\"Organization\",\"name\":\"NewsBTC\",\"logo\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.wncen.com\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2020\\\/06\\\/cropped-cropped-cropped-favicon.png?w=32\"},\"keywords\":[\"2024 prediction\",\"price analysis\",\"sol\",\"solana\",\"vaneck\"],\"dateCreated\":\"2023-12-14T11:30:38Z\",\"datePublished\":\"2023-12-14T11:30:38Z\",\"dateModified\":\"2023-12-14T11:30:38Z\"}<\/script>","tracker_url":"https:\/\/cdn.parsely.com\/keys\/wncen.com\/p.js"},"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/www.wncen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/a-93.png?fit=874%2C581","amp_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.wncen.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/565390"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.wncen.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.wncen.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.wncen.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/557"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.wncen.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=565390"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.wncen.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/565390\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.wncen.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/565411"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.wncen.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=565390"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.wncen.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=565390"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.wncen.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=565390"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
