Solana News - February 9, 2026

📈 Solana (SOL) Current Price: ~$244.15 (+1.2% in 24h) Top News: Solana opens the week with renewed strength, successfully holding the $240 support and pushing toward $245. The catalyst today is a surge in DePIN (Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Networks) activity; specifically, a major Solana-based telecom project announced a pilot partnership with a Tier-1 Asian mobile carrier this morning. This real-world validation has triggered a fresh wave of institutional buying, as investors bet on Solana becoming the backbone for global decentralized connectivity, distinguishing it from purely speculative assets.
