Solana’s key metrics grow, but there’s a catch

Solana’s NFT trade count and trade volume in USD both spiked in the last seven days.

Solana’s NFT space witnesses growth, will SOL follow the same trend? 
  • SOL’s TVL and DEX volumes registered upticks, which looked encouraging. 
  • Despite a green weekly chart, SOL’s market indicators remained bearish. 

Solana’s [SOL] Magic Eden has become the top performing NFT player in its ecosystem. The network’s NFT metrics also went green last week, as evident from CRYPTOSLAM’s charts.

As per the data, the number of NFT sellers and buyers both went up by more than 20% in the last seven days. Not only that, but the number of transactions also increased marginally.

Solana noted growth on other fronts as well. For instance, after a dip, SOL’s daily transactions gained upward momentum.

Additionally, its DEX volume also spiked, reflecting its popularity among traders. Artemis’ data revealed that Solana’s TVL also increased in the last few days, which by and large is a positive signal for a blockchain.

Investors’ confidence improved 

The improvement in the metrics might also have played a role in improving sentiment around SOL in the market. After a dip, Solana’s weighted sentiments registered an uptick, which is a positive signal.

Moreover, its social volume also increased, again reflecting the token’s popularity in the crypto space. Interestingly, SOL’s development activity was also high, which indicated that the developers were pouring in more effort to improve the network.
