With Bitcoin (CCC:BTC-USD) down 14% the past week, altcoins are feeling the effects as well. Popular cryptocurrency Solana (CCC:SOL-USD) is no exception, and the SOL crypto has lost more than 30% in the past week. After the decline, Solana now carries a market capitalization of $29 billion. In addition, Solana’s market cap makes it the eighth-largest cryptocurrency, trailing behind Cardano (CCC:ADA-USD) by roughly $6 billion. So, where is SOL headed next? Let’s take a look at some Solana price predictions.
Solana has picked up negative feedback from Solana network users the past few days. Many of Solana’s traders and validators have launched complaints because they were unable to execute transactions on Solana’s blockchain. According to Solana, the error was caused by “excessive duplicate transactions.”
The Solana team addressed the error by releasing update 1.8.14, which will “attempt to mitigate the worst effects of this issue” and improve the state of the Solana network. The official Solana website added that “With the adoption of 1.8.14 the incident has been resolved.”
With the recent price decline and transaction issues in mind, investors are wondering how the SOL crypto will fare the rest of the year. Let’s take a look at Solana price predictions for 2022.
