Market Outlook for 2026

The cryptocurrency market faces challenges in 2026, but some assets show potential to grow toward a $100 billion valuation. Finbold highlights Solana (SOL) and Tron (TRX) as key candidates, driven by network upgrades, institutional interest, and on-chain activity. Both projects aim to capitalize on improving market sentiment and technological advancements.

Solana’s Growth Potential

Solana currently trades at $86 with a $49 billion market cap, needing a price near $175 to reach $100 billion. Analysts at Standard Chartered project $250 by year-end, citing infrastructure upgrades like the Alpenglow consensus protocol. Despite recent dips, technical support around $80 could trigger a rebound if broader sentiment improves.

Tron’s Path to Expansion

Tron (TRX) trades at $0.28 with a $27 billion market cap, requiring a 3.7x surge to $1.06 for a $100 billion valuation. Projections suggest $0.516 by year-end, supported by TRC-20 USDT dominance and clearer regulations. Recent treasury purchases and breaking the $0.30 resistance may signal renewed momentum for the token.
