GoChain (GO) Surges After Listing On Binance
Ever since cryptocurrencies exploded as a trend back in late 2017, numerous new altcoins started emerging on the market. While some of them disappeared very quickly, many still managed to survive. However, not a lot of them can say that they are making as much progress as GoChain (GO).
GoChain is a very young coin and has only been a part of the crypto world for a few months. However, during that time, it achieved a lot, and it is currently among the most popular coins to talk about.
GoChain was launched in May 2018, which was a peculiar period, when even the top cryptocurrencies had a difficult time staying relevant. The last thing that anyone expected was that a new altcoin will appear during this time, and its chances of surviving it were slim, at best. However, GoChain managed it, and since then, it only picked up the pace.
Its rise to popularity started with a mission of reaching as many big digital currency exchanges as possible. So far, it managed to reach Bittrex, Upbit, Binance, KuCoin, and Bilaxy. While it still has no trading pairs against the USD or any other fiat currency, it can still be bought via Bitcoin or Ethereum.
Its total supply is a bit over 1 billion coins, while only 625,412,261 GO is currently in circulation. However, GoChain remains highly popular, with a trading volume of nearly $40 million in the last 24 hours.
GoChain: Winner of Binance’s Coin of the Month contest
In recent days, GoChain started experiencing a significant price surge, which has brought double-digit gains. Its current price is $0.068145, with a 14.18% increase in the last 24 hours. While this is still not enough for GoChain to enter the top 100 largest coins by market cap, investors remain optimistic, believing that it will get there eventually. At the time of writing, GoChain is ranked as a 125th largest coin on CoinMarketCap.
The new price surge is believed to be inspired by the fact that GO managed to win Binance’s competition. Each month, Binance reviews multiple unlisted coins, and if one of them satisfies certain criteria, the coin gains free listing. It appears that Binance was impressed with GoChain, as it chose it as a winner last month.
As a result, GO attracted a lot more attention, and its community continues to grow. In a recent Tweet, GoChain announced that their Telegram community now counts 10,000 real members.
We want to thank the community for helping us reach a milestone over on telegram! We now have 10,000 real members over there! RT & share with your friends to help us continue growing the community! ???????? https://t.co/olljGfBg0T pic.twitter.com/wORasBWt0u

Following the Binance listing, GoChain’s value increased by over 40%. Many expected that this development might trigger a bull run, although now it would seem that this is unlikely to happen. Regardless, GO is still growing in value, with a current increase of 14%. This is still noteworthy, considering that most of the other cryptocurrencies, Bitcoin included, are currently experiencing losses.

Solana Price Surges Beyond $100, Dethroning Ripple and BNB To Secure Fourth Place
Solana price performance in recent times has been remarkable, surpassing Ripple and Binance Coin to become the fourth-largest cryptocurrency by market cap. The SOL price breached the critical level of $100 for the first time since April 2022 over the weekend to imbue optimism among investors. However, the altcoin has corrected by 7%, suggesting that the market is overheated. At the time of writing, the ‘Ethereum killer’ was trading slightly lower at $111.60.
SOL Outlook
Solana price has made a significant recovery over the past few weeks, climbing above the psychological level of $100. The altcoin has been one of the best-performing assets this year, extending its year-to-date gains to more than 1,025%, with more gains recorded in the past month alone. However, even with such growth, analysts have noted that Solana has a bleak chance of topping its ATH of $260.
The reason behind this is the increase in supply relative to its value. In November 2021, when the Solana price hit its all-time high of $260, its total market capitalization was around $78 billion. Despite the value of the crypto asset being less than half of what it was at the top, its market cap is currently hovering near $50 billion.
This has been brought about by the increase in the Solana supply by more than 100 million SOL over the past two years. According to some analysts, for the altcoin to retest $260, its…

Solana Price Skyrockets to 20-Month Peak Amidst Memecoin Frenzy
Solana price has noted significant gains over the past few weeks, climbing to its highest level since April 2022. The ‘Ethereum Killer’ almost topped the crucial level of $100 on Friday, before pulling back slightly. The asset’s recent surge has catapulted Solana’s total market cap to $39.6 billion, ranking 5th after and above BNB and XRP, respectively. Solana has jumped by more than 22% in the past week and more than 80% in the month to date. At the time of writing, SOL price was trading 0.90% lower at $93.10.
Catalysts Behind SOL’s Rally
Solana price has been on a strong bull run over the past few days, rocketing to its highest level in 20 months as the network benefits from the substantial activity and strong interest in memecoins. The SOL token, the native digital asset of the high-performance blockchain platform Solana, has shown some serious strength over the past few weeks, outperforming all the altcoins in the market.
The recent surge in the Solana price has been linked to heightened on-chain activities on the Solana blockchain. Notably, the ongoing hype for the blockchain’s speedy transactions, cheap fees, and a lottery of meme coin issuances has buoyed SOL’s on-chain activity. Metrics have revealed that Solana has been the strongest draw among on-chain traders, with trading volumes and network fees outperforming Ethereum- the largest altcoin by market cap.

Solana Price Breaches $60 Amid a Symphony of Bullish Indicators
Solana price has jumped more than 8% over the past week, breaching the important level of $60. At the time of writing, Solana was trading 3% higher at $61.07. The asset’s total market cap has climbed to $25.9 billion over the past week, ranking it the 6th largest cryptocurrency after XRP. The total volume of SOL traded over the last day has declined by 8%.
SOL’s Bullish Cues
Solana’s price has been among the best-performing cryptocurrencies this year amid continuous growth. The “Ethereum killer” has consistently impressed investors throughout the year on the back of a resurgence in bullishness, which saw SOL’s price climb more than 513% in the year to date. Institutional investors have also shared the bullish sentiment, making Solana their most preferred altcoin.
In the week ending November 24, Solana recorded inflows worth nearly $3.5 million, significantly more than the other altcoins’ inflows combined. The asset’s monthly inflows were higher at $40.2 million, lower than Ethereum’s $99.6 million inflows in the same period. Other altcoins, including Litecoin and Ethereum, noted significant outflows, making Solana nearly half of the home for DeFi. This implies that when it comes to institutions, Solana is currently the best-performing altcoin with the potential of a long-term rally much higher than other digital assets.
Notably, the Solana DeFi ecosystem accomplished a significant milestone earlier this week. Its Total Value Locked (TVL) hit a new yearly peak of over $655 million,…
