Cryptocurrencies Price Prediction: Solana, Bitcoin & Polygon – European Wrap 24 April

Solana price could crash to $18.50 as SOL participants tanks by 60%

Solana (SOL) price was once primed to be the Comeback Kid for altcoins as traders were looking for the next best thing to put their money in. At the beginning of the year, Solana made the cut for that but has recently seen interest fading. Recent numbers revealed that the number of active wallets had dropped by 60% in the Metaverse, despite several efforts.

Solana price looked to be a safe space for altcoin traders as it appeared to be reasonably immune to the fallout of FTX. With a quick lead recovery, SOL was primed to become the next best thing to invest in next to the majors like Bitcoin, Ether or Ripple. Unfortunately, that pole position is now being removed from Solana as the altcoin is struggling in the Metaverse.
