Solana (SOL) maintains its price near $84, supported by Visa's and Meta's expansion of USDC payments on its network, signaling growing enterprise adoption. However, ongoing security issues, including a recent $285 million exploit, and sluggish inflows into Solana ETFs continue to limit price gains. Technical indicators suggest a potential breakout above $85.50 could lead to higher targets around $87 and beyond, but institutional caution remains. Upcoming protocol upgrades aim to improve scalability and transaction finality, which may enhance Solana's appeal for payments and real-world asset processing in the future.
