The Price of Solana (SOL) increased to $143.50 on 2nd April after a fantastic rally of 82% which has been continuing for 20 days.

Price Of Solana Dropped By 20%, Yet DApp Metrics Are Shining

In addition to this, the total data of 30 days portrays that Solana has successfully incurred $216 million of NFT sales.
The primary DApp of Solana started showing signs of weakness in the second half of March as the TVL of the network came below 50 million SOL.

An announcement was made on 7th April that nearly 1.6 million addresses of the network hold an NFT currently.
