Solana Price Rebounds as AAVE Launches on Network

Solana's price has rebounded from April lows after AAVE launched natively on the network through Sunrise DeFi. The move brings one of the largest lending protocols to Solana's decentralized finance (DeFi) layer, with approximately $15 billion in global deposits.

The launch is seen as a significant development for Solana, which has been touted as a potential growth driver for 2026. According to Artemis, Solana's economic activity reached $1.1 trillion during Q1, a substantial increase from the previous quarter.

Despite this, experts still predict further price growth, with some forecasts suggesting a peak near $107 or even $500 by year-end. However, a new presale project called Pepeto is generating interest among traders with its potential to deliver 100x returns if listed at current prices.
