> Solana’s share rose 9.88% over the past month, while Bitcoin held 6.48% and Ether 3.93%.

Solana (SOL) accounted for 16.74% of crypto mindshare, moving well ahead of Bitcoin (BTC) and Ether (ETH) in the reported measure even as SOL’s price declined over the past 24 hours.

Solana’s share increased 9.88% over the past month. Bitcoin held 6.48% of crypto mindshare, while Ether held 3.93%, leaving Solana ahead of both major crypto assets in the comparison.

SOL traded between $105 and $108 after falling 4% to 5% during the previous 24 hours. Solana’s price declined despite the increase in reported mindshare.

Prediction-market pricing placed the probability of Solana reaching $190 in October below 1%. The pricing reflects a cautious outlook for that specific threshold, while the reported mindshare figures show stronger attention toward Solana than toward Bitcoin or Ether.

Regulatory developments, network upgrades, adoption by major financial institutions and changes in spot trading volume could influence Solana’s price outlook and market volatility. Conditions affecting Bitcoin and Ether could also change the relative distribution of crypto-market attention as October progresses.
