In a significant development for the cryptocurrency industry, Binance has announced the integration of Solana, the fifth largest cryptocurrency by market cap, into its Web3 Wallet. This move marks a major step forward in the platform’s commitment to enhancing the user experience and expanding its services within the Web3 space.
With Solana‘s integration, Binance Web3 Wallet users gain access to a suite of decentralized applications (dApps) based on the Solana network, as well as upcoming airdrops.
Users can also easily trade and manage their Solana assets in the multichain wallet, as well as explore popular Solana dApps in the dApp hub. They can also swap Solana-based tokens and get access to exclusive Solana airdrops.
The integration is expected to increase activity on the Solana network, as Binance’s large user base now has direct access to its features. This could lead to increased adoption of Solana-based dApps, thus driving even more network innovation.
At the start of March, withdrawals on the Solana (SOL) network were intermittently suspended on Binance due to the increased volume of transactions on the network. Binance then identified areas for optimization and proposed a reliable and long-term solution to be implemented.
At the time of writing, SOL has risen 0.28% in the previous 24 hours to $171.30, defying the general market decline that saw Bitcoin plummet from its most recent record high of $73,794 to lows of $65,569 in today’s trading session.
Even though Solana’s price is 33.68% off its all-time high, the cryptocurrency’s market capitalization has lately achieved a record high. The previous market capitalization peak was approximately $77.9 billion in November 2021.
