Solana: Price prediction
Given the highly bullish outlook for Solana, some predictions are very optimistic. According to the estimates of Wallet Investor, SOL token is expected to be operating at a price level of $300 in a year’s time while the five-year projection places the cryptocurrency at a staggering price of $1123. However, crossing $1000 is the projection of only one analyst platform only. Digital Coin Price is also bullish on the token but does not predict the price to reach near $1000 any time soon. According to their estimates, SOL token is expected to be operating at a price level of $300 in five years’ time. This does show one thing – the future of Solana is bullish whether or not it crosses $1000, making it one of the best bets in the market.
