Solana's native asset (SOL) has recently exhibited mixed technical trends, hovering around $165 after reclaiming this price on November 9 following a period of consolidation. Although this movement coincided with a broader crypto market recovery—Bitcoin increased by 3% and
Despite these technical uncertainties, Solana's DEX infrastructure remains central to its expansion. Based on Defillama figures shared by community member Solanasensie, Solana DEXs saw $5.11 billion in daily trading volume on November 9, surpassing Ethereum's $3.8 billion and
Institutional trust in Solana has grown as well, fueled by the rollout of U.S. spot ETFs. Since their launch on October 28, offerings like Bitwise's BSOL and Grayscale's GSOL have drawn more than $342 million in total inflows, with BSOL alone accumulating $329 million in assets

Adrena's move to maintenance mode mirrors a broader industry shift, as projects focus on long-term stability rather than rapid expansion. While this may mean slower innovation in Solana's perpetual DEX sector for now, it fits with the ecosystem's efforts to strengthen its foundation ahead of possible macroeconomic catalysts. With robust DEX activity and continued institutional investment, Solana's ability to manage short-term volatility will likely shape its path in the near future.
