The U.S.-China trade truce continues to buoy market sentiment, though inflation concerns persist with short-term expectations hitting multi-decade highs. Meanwhile, regulatory clarity under the EU’s MiCA framework and the U.S.’s pro-crypto stance under the Trump administration are fostering institutional adoption, with Solana and XRP ETFs potentially on the horizon.
SUI (Sui): The Sui Foundation is advancing high-speed, low-cost blockchain solutions, with recent hackathons driving DeFi and infrastructure innovations. Its scalability makes it a strong contender in the Layer 1 race.
JUP (Jupiter): Jupiter’s Solana-based DEX aggregator is revolutionizing DeFi with cross-chain swaps, perpetual trading, and a forthcoming SOL debit card—bridging crypto and real-world spending. Its governance model and liquidity aggregation are key growth drivers.
BOME (Book of Meme): This meme coin is gaining traction by blending viral culture with utility, leveraging Solana’s ecosystem for fast, low-fee transactions. Its community-driven momentum could defy typical meme coin volatility.
