Is Solana truly bullish after praise from analysts and investors?
Solana (SOL/USD) has increased in terms of investor appeal due to the fact that it was analyzed by Santiment and by Synapse COO Max Bronstein. Furthermore, the Solana Foundation held $180 million worth of crypto assets on FTX.
BetDEX Exchange also went live on the Solana mainnet, and all of these updates have sparked debate over the future of Solana.
Solana is a blockchain-based platform purpose-built to host decentralized applications (dApps) and improves on the Proof-of-Stake (PoS) consensus by also implementing Proof-of-History (PoH).
Analysts predict a bullish outlook for the SOL Token
In the latest Solana news, the behavior analytics platform for cryptocurrencies that sources on-chain, social, and development information on over 900 cryptocurrencies known as Santiment, posted a tweet on November 23, 2022.
? There are not a lot of big #Solana believers, even as its price bottomed out at $11.02 and rebounded to $12.70 over the past 15 hours. This #FUD could cause more rebounding until traders slow down their nearly unanimous bets against $SOL’s price. https://t.co/e2jSAmLEqf pic.twitter.com/1qisr8inaj

In it, they discussed how the value of the token bottomed out at $11.02 and rebounded to $12.70 between the span of November 22 and November 23 or within 15 hours.
In the report, they claimed that this could cause more rebounding until traders slow down their unanimous bets against the value of SOL.
Synapse COO Max Bronstein also shared why he believes that this might be a great time to invest in SOL, because the root cause of its issues, citing Alameda Research and Sam Bankman-Fried, are gone, and Ethereum’s (ETH/USD) roll-up visions are accelerating.
Through this, Bronstein claims Solana can be the main monolithic challenger.
Think $SOL is one of the most asymmetric bets today
Criticisms that were more true at the peak are comfortable to make down 95% +
The root causes of its issues — alameda/sam — are gone and as Ethereum’s roll-up vision accelerates, Solana will be the main monolithic challenger https://t.co/5WmbjQA5KI
