Decentralization and dependability may be sacrificed for speed, although Shah believes that the advantages outweigh these drawbacks.

Multiple Glitches

Since Binance confirmed withdrawal problems on January 12 this year, Solana has had more than its due proportion of network performance issues, including reports of delayed performance on January 7 on social media and what appeared to be a DDoS attack on January 5 – although Solana denied this was the case.

There were complaints of network congestion due to widespread botting related to an initial Dec offering (IDO) on Raydium, a decentralized exchange platform located in Solana, less than a month before this incident.

According to CoinMarketCap, the Solana price today is $152.88 USD with a 24-hour trading volume of $2,115,040,855 USD. Solana has been up 3.56% in the last 24 hours.
