Solana's story embodies crypto's extremes: a meteoric rise from under $1 to $260, then a 97% crash to $8 after FTX's collapse — followed by a dramatic recovery. Those who bought at the bottom saw life-changing returns, but those who bought at the top experienced devastating losses.

Solana's deep ties to FTX in November 2022 taught investors a harsh lesson about counterparty risk in crypto. The recovery was driven by an active community, meme coins, and dApps — but this also means part of the value is based on speculation rather than fundamentals.

Solana is extremely volatile — past performance doesn't guarantee future results. The network has suffered multiple outages that halted transactions for hours, raising questions about centralization and reliability. Indian crypto gains are taxed at 30% plus 1% TDS.

Is this better than a SIP investment?

Solana has shown explosive growth but also catastrophic drops (97% in 2022). A 12% annual SIP in NIFTY 50 delivers consistent, reliable compounding without such extremes. For Indian investors, a diversified SIP should form the core strategy, with Solana as a high-risk satellite allocation only if you can stomach the volatility.
