New EOS Wallet Charges No Transaction Fees
Freewallet, the third most popular online wallet for Android devices, has just announced a new EOS wallet. The new wallet will support multiple currencies apart from EOS, but its most important feature is that it will not charge any fees for transferring EOS coins or exchanging them for other tokens.
The new wallet will be available for Android and iOS users alike, and it can be used for storing, receiving, or sending EOS coins. Also, all transactions are completely fee-free, which is a large improvement when compared to many other wallets.
Additionally, the wallet will reportedly support almost any cryptocurrency. That way, all coins can be exchanged for one another in a single place, without having to go to specific exchanges. Furthermore, Freewallet also allows users the ability to swap ERC-20 EOS for the new EOS coin, which is native to EOS blockchain.
Exchange EOS ERC-20 tokens via the new EOS wallet
While EOS has launched its MainNet months ago, on June 1st, there are still EOS holders that have yet to exchange old EOS tokens for the new ones. This is why Freewallet’s founder and CEO, Alvyn Hagg, announced that EOS ERC-20 tokens that were held on Freewallet got swapped for the real EOS coin automatically. The ability to swap the coins on the new wallet as well is included for those users who held their old EOS tokens elsewhere.
Freewallet is known for being very user-friendly, and so far, it supported numerous coins, including Bitcoin, Litecoin, Ethereum, Dogecoin, and even Monero, in addition to numerous others. It was first released in January 2016, and since then, it expanded to include Multiwallet, 9 single-currency wallets for iOS, as well as 22 single-currency wallets for Android.
With the addition of a new EOS wallet, Freewallet continues to attract attention and interest from a lot of users. The new wallet will serve as a one-stop shop for numerous cryptocurrency traders, as well as for all EOS. It will certainly make trading easier, and the team’s current goal is to reach, and possibly even beat, MyEtherWallet, a cryptocurrency wallet centered around Ethereum (ETH).

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,…
