Except for spikes in May, the user count on the platform remained remarkably stable. The chart illustrated this steady trend, where the number of users exhibited a persistent equilibrium devoid of any discernible decline.
SOL bear trend weakens
On the daily timeframe chart, Solana’s journey, post its 8% ascent on 26 July, hasn’t managed to forge a substantial trajectory. Instead, the chart reflected more of a decline rather than a resurgence.
As of this writing, it was trading at around $23.2, displaying a modest increase of less than 1%. Despite the lackluster price movement, SOL maintained its position above the short Moving Average (yellow line).
This was a testament to the momentum it garnered from the upward trend observed a few weeks earlier.
