Cryptocurrencies Price Prediction: Solana, LUNC & Crypto – European Wrap 1 December

Solana likely to extend gains as DeFi airdrop season could boost user base

Solana ecosystem is set to experience a surge in activity from decentralized finance (DeFi) projects that offer users airdrops in the following months, according to a report from crypto market intelligence company Messari. A higher user base – together with the gradual increase in weekly active addresses on the layer 1 blockchain – benefits Solana (SOL) token’s valuation, which has risen nearly 4% over the last day and a whopping 59.20% in the last month.
