Solana: Block Times Drop 17% in Speed Upgrade

Solana reduced block times 17% in its newest speed upgrade, extending the network's edge in Solana network performance benchmarks vs Ethereum. The move builds on Solana's reputation for high throughput that previously drove its price to an ATH of $216. SOL now sits at $111.52 inside a bullish structure where the EMA50 at $103.84 and EMA200 at $96.2 act as layered support. Momentum shows a MACD golden cross at 3.31 while RSI at 69.13 leaves room before overbought territory. Price tests the upper Bollinger Band near $117.06, suggesting a healthy pullback toward the 50-EMA could precede continuation if volume holds. Traders tracking SOL price prediction models will watch whether this performance lift sustains the trend above $111.
