SOL, the blockchain network Solana native Cryptocurrency, has lost more than 13% of its value in the last 24 hours. Solana's downtime has been attributed to a flood of bot-generated transactions, with as many as 400,000 transactions sent per second. As of this writing, node operators are coordinating a network restart in order to resume transaction validation. The outage and subsequent price action brought an unexpected halt to Solana's recent upward momentum.
