All eyes on altcoins as crypto market kicks off 2024 with a bang

Solana is a high-performance cryptocurrency blockchain that supports smart contracts and decentralised apps. It uses timestamps in transactions for maximum efficiency. Solana's algorithm allows 50,000-65,000 transactions to be processed per second, with a theoretical limit of over 700,000 transactions per second. Bitcoin, by comparison, can process seven transactions per second, while Ethereum can process 15 transactions per second. 

SOL is the Solana blockchain's native cryptocurrency and has a total supply of 500 million coins. Of those, 36.2% have been sold to private investors in four rounds of closed sales, 12.8% has been allocated to the Solana team. In addition to that, 10.4% has been allocated to the Solana Foundation, a not-for-profit organisation dedicated to educating people and disseminating blockchain technologies. The remaining 39% have been left for the Solana community as rewards for node validators.

Solana is being developed by the eponymous company based in San Diego, California. The Solana team is made up of former employees from Qualcomm, Google, Apple, Microsoft and Dropbox.

SOL's capitalisation at the beginning of April 2021 was over $7 billion.

SOLUSD's average intraday volatility in 2020 was 8.6%.
