Solana to see 5x growth by final quarter of 2025, per analyst
The price of Solana, the world’s fourth-largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization, has jumped over the weekend to reach a new price of nearly $160 a token, according to data from CoinGecko.
Solana’s price history over the past month has reflected an upward growth trajectory. The cryptocurrency has languished near $150 for more than 220 consecutive days, spurring some analysts to forecast that the token could witness a 5x growth ahead of the last quarter of 2025.
“The magnitude of this economy could propel it 5x before Q4 2025 and the yields on native Solana DeFi are the highest based on its insane user count and volumes,” said one crypto analyst. “This project has the best chance of delivering the second internet.”

At the end of last year, Solana was posting price performance that was 75% higher than November 2022, including total overall gains of 776% from January 2023.
Last December, Solana was even labeled “crypto’s next big thing” after it reached a valuation of $38 billion. Recently, the cryptocurrency's value has increased due to technological upgrades to its popular blockchain network, which now offers faster transaction speeds and lower costs than its rivals.
The blockchain network is also toying with the possibility of making the blockchain network more efficient by adjusting its default compute budget, but some Solana developers are pushing back against the idea.
