Solana shines again... although with some caution
November is here, and with it comes that time of year when the crypto market seems to wake up suddenly. If you have been following Solana lately, you will know what I'm talking about: after hitting $295 in January 2025, the price of Solana has experienced a correction that has brought it to trade in the $140-160 range.
I'm not going to deceive you with promises of 'Solana to the moon', the market is showing mixed signals. The current technical indicators are mostly bearish, with a fear and greed index at 22 (fear).
This reflects the caution of many investors. But here’s the interesting part: historically, November has been one of the strongest months for Solana, with positive revaluation in 3 of the last 4 years.
What really matters right now is not to predict whether the price of Solana will surpass $200 again next week (although some analysts project a target of $195-200 by the end of November), but to identify the projects within its ecosystem that are building real value, regardless of Solana's daily price fluctuations.
Why Solana remains relevant (despite volatility)
Let me be clear: Solana is not without risks. It has experienced network outages in the past, its price is volatile, and it is directly exposed to the fluctuations of the overall cryptocurrency market.
But, and this 'but' is important, the network is still functioning better than ever on a technical level. With over 100,000 transactions per second and fees that don't exceed cents, Solana has become the preferred blockchain for projects that need speed and efficiency without compromising decentralization.
Institutional flows are also supporting this narrative: in the last 10 days, inflows of over $300 million have been recorded, a sign that big players are still betting on the long term.
And there is another key piece of data: the selling pressure from long-term holders is decreasing significantly, which is usually a sign that we are close to a bottom before a new bullish push.
Moreover, Solana's market capitalization continues to grow despite the recent correction, consolidating its position among the most relevant blockchains in the crypto ecosystem.
Top altcoins in the Solana ecosystem in November 2025
Let’s get to what matters. These are the projects that, in my opinion, make the most sense within the Solana ecosystem right now:
1. Jupiter (JUP) – The silent giant of DeFi on Solana
If there is a project that defines DeFi on Solana, it is Jupiter. And the numbers speak for themselves: so far in 2025, Jupiter has handled 42% of all DEX volume on Solana, with $334 billion processed. To give you an idea, that's more than double Raydium, its closest competitor.
Jupiter Lend: launched in August 2025, this lending protocol reached $500 million in value locked in its first 24 hours, becoming one of the most successful DeFi launches of the year. It offers loan ratios of up to 95%, well above the usual 75%.
JupUSD: the native stablecoin of Jupiter, expected for Q4 2025 in collaboration with Ethena Labs. The goal is to replace $750 million in USDC from its liquidity pools, reducing dependence on external assets.
Ultra V3: its new trading engine launched in October 2025 offers 34 times better protection against MEV, positive slippage, and fees that are 8 to 10 times lower.

Current price: around $0.30-$0.35
Why I like it: Jupiter is not a speculative project. It is critical infrastructure. Every swap, every DeFi operation on Solana probably goes through Jupiter. Analysts project that JUP could trade between $0.466 and $2.18 in 2026, with an average price of $1.23, representing a 385% ROI from current levels.
The risk: scheduled token unlocks could generate temporary selling pressure. Additionally, JUP is highly correlated with the overall performance of Solana.

2. Pyth Network (PYTH) – Oracles that actually work
Oracles are the 'plumbing' of DeFi: invisible when they work well, but catastrophic when they fail. Pyth has positioned itself as a serious alternative to Chainlink, with clear technical advantages in speed and operating costs.
What sets Pyth apart is its real-time data model: instead of updating prices every X minutes like other oracles, Pyth does it continuously, feeding off more than 90 first-hand data sources (exchanges, trading firms, market makers).
Why it matters: with the rise of lending, derivatives, and perpetual trading protocols on Solana, the demand for reliable price feeds is at an all-time high. Every new DeFi protocol needs oracles, and many are choosing Pyth by default.
Key for investors: PYTH is a bet on DeFi infrastructure. If you believe that trading and lending volume on Solana will continue to grow in 2025-2026, PYTH should benefit directly.

3. Bonk (BONK) – The memecoin that took itself seriously
I will be honest: memecoins give me some hives. Although I will be objective with BONK, at least in the context of Solana. What started as a joke in December 2022 (a massive airdrop to 'save' the post-FTX ecosystem) has become one of the tokens with the highest community activity on the network.
The good: BONK has shown resilience. It has not disappeared like 99% of memecoins. It has real integration in wallets, DEXs, and applications within the Solana crypto ecosystem.
The bad: it is still a memecoin. Its price is primarily driven by sentiment and speculation, not by real utility.
Key for investors: BONK is a speculative short-term bet. If the market enters euphoria mode and the price of Solana recovers to $200, BONK could multiply quickly. But just as quickly it can drop 50% in days. Only for seasoned traders with strong stomachs.

4. Tensor (TNSR) – The NFT market that challenged Blur
NFTs on Solana have had a tough year, but Tensor has remained the dominant marketplace on the network. Its incentive model for traders and creators, along with advanced analytical tools, has made it the preferred platform for serious collectors.
The problem: the NFT market in general is in hibernation mode. Volumes are well below the peaks of 2021-2022.
The opportunity: if, and it's a big 'if', the NFT market experiences a resurgence during this cycle, Tensor is perfectly positioned to capture most of the volume on Solana.
Key for investors: TNSR is a highly speculative bet in the medium term. It only makes sense if you believe in a significant recovery of the NFT market in the next 6-12 months.

Investment strategy: how not to lose your head in this market
Let's be clear: buying altcoins in November 2025 is not like investing in an index fund. Volatility is brutal, projects can collapse overnight, and market sentiment changes faster than the weather in the mountains.
Here are some rules that have saved me more than once:
Diversify, but don’t overdo it.
Don’t put everything into a single altcoin. But also don’t buy 20 different tokens that you can’t keep track of. Between 3-5 well-researched positions is optimal.Define your levels BEFORE buying.
At what price do you sell if everything goes well? At what price do you cut losses if things go wrong? Write it down. Commit to it. Follow it.Solana is the thermometer.
If Solana price loses $150, its altcoins will suffer more. Analysts see key support around $160-175. Below that, things get complicated.Liquidity is your friend.
In a bear market, low-volume tokens can drop 50% without you being able to sell.Jupiter, Pyth, and BONK have enough liquidity.Tensor, less.Use serious platforms.
Binance to buy. Avoid unknown exchanges, no matter how good the prices are.
Solana is still alive (and fighting)
November 2025 is not December 2021. We are not in full euphoria where everything goes up. The crypto market is more mature, more cautious, and frankly, more interesting for those looking for real value rather than empty promises.
With hundreds of millions of dollars in recent institutional flows and a decrease in long-term selling pressure, Solana has a solid foundation to grow. But nothing is guaranteed.
What is clear is that projects that are building real infrastructure will likely be here in two years. BONK? Who knows. Tensor? It depends on the NFT market.
My advice: invest in what you understand, don’t bet more than you can afford to lose, and always keep some liquidity to take advantage of opportunities when the market panics.
If you want to follow the price of Solana in real time and monitor these altcoins, I recommend using Binance to buy and CoinMarketCap to analyze the tokens. And please, do not make investment decisions based solely on this article (or any other). Research, verify, and think with a cool head.
The crypto market rewards the patient, not the impulsive.
