Solana's 2025 Story: Strong Start, Then Reality Kicked In



2025 opened on fire for Solana. The blockchain rode waves of momentum into the new year—Trump-themed meme coins were everywhere, and the token hit fresh all-time highs. Hype was real. But here's the thing: riding the momentum wave and sustaining it are two different animals.

The early-year rally showed what happens when narrative and adoption align. Meme culture collided with market psychology, pushing prices into uncharted territory. Yet as the months rolled on, the gains didn't hold their shape. The market does what markets do—it corrects, consolidates, prints red candles.

The lesson? Solana's strength isn't just about single catalysts or seasonal peaks. It's about what the ecosystem builds underneath the noise. Meme coins grab headlines, but network growth, developer activity, and actual use cases determine staying power.

It's the same old trick. Early hype goes crazy, and then it gets brought back to reality. The meme coin trend is over, and whether it can truly survive depends on ecosystem development.

It's the same story again, first hype up the meme, then the price drops, cyclical harvesting.

According to on-chain data, the fund flow pattern during the meme coin frenzy of is quite interesting. Through multi-address tracking, the wallets that entered early are now mostly in the hands of others, a typical pump-and-dump strategy by the manipulators. When SOL reached a new high, large investors quietly reduced their positions, which is quite obvious.
