VanEck Reviews Solana Wash Trading Claims! Explains Factors Behind SOL's Success!
In his latest report, VanEck assessed the success of his Solana and the allegations of wash trading in SOL-based memecoins.
VanEck, a global investment manager, evaluated the success of its Solana and the allegations of wash trading in SOL-based memecoins in its latest report.
What are the factors behind Solana's success?
VanEck stated that Solana experienced high interaction and trading volume due to its structural positive aspects despite wash trading concerns, and attributed Solana's high trading volume to its low transaction fees and high-speed transaction capabilities.
VanEck analysts also said they remain optimistic about Solana's potential despite concerns about wash trading.
VanEck’s latest analysis comes in response to speculation that Solana trading volumes are being inflated by wash trading in memecoins, with many arguing that the trading numbers are unrealistic and raising concerns about SOL’s future potential.
However, VanEck analysts say that SOL is successful thanks to the SOL network's low transaction fees and high transaction speed.
Matthew Sigel, head of digital asset research at VanEck, said Solana’s popularity among speculative investors stems from its low transaction fees and high transaction speeds, which attract users at a rate that other networks cannot match.
“Solana’s unique structure and advantages are driving high trading activity, particularly among speculative investors, which is contributing to revenue growth.”
According to VanEck’s analysis, around 14.2% of Solana’s revenue comes from wash trading, the practice of artificially inflating trading volumes through repeated buying and selling of the same asset. In comparison, Ethereum’s estimated wash trading volume accounts for 2% of its revenue this year.
“Solana’s low transaction fees, approximately 1/10,000th of Ethereum, create a favorable environment for speculative trading.
“While memecoin trading currently dominates Solana’s revenue, Solana’s solid fundamentals offer potential for use cases beyond memecoins, which could provide revenue stability in the future.”
