The market capitalization of cryptocurrency has grown from $1.2 trillion on July 19 to $2.4 trillion today. Over the last month, the price of Solana, an Ethereum competitor chain that promises better transaction speeds and reduced fees, has tripled. Anatoly Yakovenko, CEO: It's not exactly a bubble comparison. The 2017 bubble was a one-time event. Solana, the Solana blockchain's native coin, has risen to seventh place on the list of most valuable cryptocurrencies by total market cap.
