Solana\u2019s price rally reached a new milestone on Monday. SOL<\/a> traded at $195.50 per coin, pushing the total valuation to over $105 billion for the first time since January\u202f25.<\/p>\n

That jump reflects growing optimism around the token. Short\u2011term gains have been strong, but questions remain about how deep the recovery really runs.<\/p>\n

DeFi TVL Rises With Price<\/h2>\n

Based on reports, Solana\u2019s total value locked<\/a> in DeFi hit $14.18 billion. That\u2019s the highest level in six months, back to where it stood in January when SOL first reached its all\u2011time high.<\/p>\n

A big chunk of that gain comes from the token\u2019s own price climbing. When SOL moves up, every coin locked in lending pools and vaults gets worth more on paper. Users haven\u2019t needed to rush in and lock fresh tokens to boost TVL numbers.<\/p>\n

The overall ecosystem feels larger. Yet true usage growth may be slower than those headline figures suggest. Experts are keeping a close eye on how many new deposits actually show up. After all, token value and real\u2011world demand don\u2019t always rise at the same pace.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

DEX Trading Activity Shows Uptick<\/h2>\n

Between July\u202f14 and July\u202f20, Solana\u2019s decentralized exchanges handled over $22 billion in trading volume<\/a>. That\u2019s up from close to $19 billion the week before.<\/p>\n

Raydium led with $8.4 billion, followed by Orca at almost $6 billion and Meteora at $5.3 billion. Based on data, traders are coming back. But weekly volumes still sit far below the $98 billion peak set in mid\u2011January.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

That gap signals a market that\u2019s warming up but not yet boiling over. Volume gains show renewed interest among active users. It also hints that fresh strategies and new tokens may be finding feet after a slower spell.<\/p>\n

\nStaking Dominates Network Security<\/p>\n

According to on\u2011chain figures, about 355\u202fmillion SOL remain staked with validators. That stake is worth roughly $69 billion, or about 65% of all tokens in circulation.<\/p>\n

Those coins aren\u2019t counted in DeFi TVL or in DEX volumes. Instead, they\u2019re busy securing the network and validating transactions.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, SOL is predicted to increase<\/a> another 3.50% and hit $210 by August\u202f21, 2025. Sentiment is currently bullish while the Fear & Greed Index is at 71 (Greed).<\/p>\n

In the past 30 days, SOL experienced 19\/30 green days and 8.61% price fluctuations, indicating both strength and volatility in today’s market, data from CoinCodex shows.<\/p>\n
