New tokens are minted every few minutes on Solana, with extremely low liquidity. Older meme tokens still go through rallies and pumps, remaining a source of returns for risky short-term traders. Solana's network is still congested due to bot-driven traffic, required for high-speed decentralized trading. SOL holding steady in a range between $130-$150 is helping the decentralized minting of tokens with predictable liquidity.
