Cryptocurrencies Price Prediction: Bitcoin, Solana & Avalanche – American Wrap 03 October

Bitcoin Lightning Network capacity falling to a 14-month low should not worry BTC investors

Before Bitcoin Ordinals and BRC-20, the world’s first cryptocurrency network ran the most prominent Layer-2 solution – Lightning Network (LN). Over the past, the network was widely utilized for conducting faster transactions, but LN seems to be losing the amount of BTC on it at the moment.

Solana (SOL), the eighth-largest crypto by market capitalization, continues to outshine other altcoins due to Total Value Locked (TVL) growth and consistent inflows. The altcoin is trading at a price of $24.26 at press time. After gaining close to 26% in the past week, the rise in dollars locked on the blockchain is keeping the holders bullish.

Avalanche Network will soon get an upgrade known as "Firewood," which is an efficient system for storage of Merkalized blockchain state. Ava Labs announced that Firewood is currently in the development stage and is not ready to be deployed yet.
