Solana's biggest opportunity may be the financial ecosystem forming around it rather than SOL's price, as more trading, lending, staking, tokenized assets and derivatives create demand for its blockspace. Jupiter is expanding into lending, Helius builds staking infrastructure, Sentora runs stablecoin vaults and xStocks brings tokenized equities. SIMD-0553's resource-based pricing could turn more activity into more fees and SOL burned. Solana ETFs drew $10.26M last week, a seventh week of inflow. x.com
