 <p class="paragraph">As the majority of assets in the cryptocurrency sector start to reverse the exceptionally bullish gains from previous weeks, some are correcting faster and more intensely than others, including Solana (SOL), which has lost over $3 <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="billion" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/billion.html">billion</a> from its market capitalization in a single day.</p>
 <p class="paragraph">Specifically, Solana’s market cap has declined by over 6% in the last 24 hours, having dropped from $48.58 <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="billion" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/billion.html">billion</a> to $45.54 <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="billion" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/billion.html">billion</a> during this time, which represents a loss of $3.04 <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="billion" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/billion.html">billion</a> to its market value, as per data obtained from the crypto analytics platform <em>CoinMarketCap</em><em> </em>on February 21.</p>

 <p class="paragraph">In the meantime, the price of Solana has dropped 6.07% in the past 24 hours, adding up to the loss of 10.78% across the last seven days, but nonetheless still clinging to the 16.94% total gain accumulated over the previous month, and currently trading at $103.41.</p>

 <h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-why-is-solana-declining">Why is Solana declining?</h2>
 <p class="paragraph">Notably, the bearish streak coincides with the general change in sentiment across the wider crypto market, which seems to have enough impact to counter the positive developments for Solana, including its decentralized finance (DeFi) ecosystem surpassing $2 <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="billion" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/billion.html">billion</a> for the first time since June 2022.</p>
 <p class="paragraph">Indeed, the total value locked in DeFi projects on the Solana network briefly crossed the $2 <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="billion" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/billion.html">billion</a> threshold on February 20, with the current value staked on it standing at $1.98 <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="billion" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/billion.html">billion</a>, according to the most recent information retrieved from the DeFi analytics platform <em>Defi Llama</em> on February 21.</p>

 <p class="paragraph">On top of that, the layer 1 blockchain has announced integration with the decentralized file storage network Filecoin (FIL) to host Solana’s block history in the future, allowing the ecosystem and Solana-based projects to move away from centralized data storage solutions.</p>

 <p class="paragraph">Upon the news, the price of Filecoin immediately started to rally and has increased 24% since the announcement, adding up to the gain of 32.77% on its weekly chart. However, Solana has failed to mimic this surge and threatens to fall further down as its relative strength index (RSI) dips below 50.</p>
