Solana could reach $500 before Christmas: Analyzing BONK and IntelMarkets

Comparing IntelMarkets and Bonk as Solana targets $500 by Christmas.

Christmas is known to bring huge surges to the crypto market. As the days till Christmas count away, many analysts are wondering what the season will bring to cryptocurrencies like Solana (SOL) and  Bonk (BONK). At the same time, IntelMarkets (INTL) is emerging among the best crypto bets for this festive period.

Solana $500 price possible by Christmas

Solana’s fast and low-cost blockchain has become a game-changer for decentralized applications and DeFi.

SOL is currently trading at around $215, with a 24-hour trading volume of $5.26 billion, and a market cap of over $100 billion. Driven by favorable market sentiment SOL reached its ATH of $263.83 in November 2024. However, the altcoin has seen a decline of around 6% in the past week. 

Despite this, analysts believe the current market sentiment gives a bullish trend that could drive SOL to reach the $500 mark by Christmas. Solana’s solid technological advancements, increasing adoption, and overall positive momentum in the crypto market further fuels this optimism. 

BONK fueled by speculative trading

The meme-inspired cryptocurrency built on the Solana network, BONK, has gained quite a reputation due to its community-driven approach. BONK was launched on December 25, 2022, to rejuvenate liquidity on Solana-based decentralized exchanges. After launch, the token skyrocketed in price and added to the growth in Solana’s value.

Currently, BONK is priced at $0.000034, with a 24-hour trading volume of $457M and a market capitalization of approximately $2.6 billion. Following the initial spike in November’s massive market hype, BONK saw a massive price correction, falling more than 50% to previous levels. It is difficult to predict BONK’s forthcoming performance, as BONK is quite volatile due to its meme nature.

While BONK can provide short-term gains, its lack of substantial real-world utility means that its price depends on community sentiment making it a high-risk investment. 

IntelMarkets among the best bets for Christmas

IntelMarkets is a trading platform that aims to integrate artificial intelligence with blockchain technology to provide top-notch trading solutions that will improve traders’ efficiency and profitability. Notably, its AI-powered bots will be able to execute trades across multiple markets.

The eighth stage of IntelMarkets’ ICO is in progress, having raised over $4,900,000, showing strong interest from investors. The INTL token is priced at $0.073.

INTL offers unparalleled growth potential in part thanks to its relatively low market cap, which could result in great upside after launch. IntelMarkets is also strategically positioning itself by following current market trends, focusing on AI and DeFi integration. 

With its listing nearing by the day, INTL could be on its way to the moon.

Conclusion

While Solana shows promise for potential gains leading up to Christmas and BONK offers speculative opportunities, IntelMarkets stands out as a strategic investment. Its approach in combining AI and DeFi positions it favorably for substantial growth in the Christmas season.
