Solana sets records for monthly new and active addresses amid price rally
Quick Take Following its token’s 100% gain from last month’s price, the Solana network has also set records for new and active addresses on the network.
According to data from The Block, Solana's network has also already set records for monthly new and active addresses, despite the week still remaining in the month.
The number of active Solana network addresses has increased about 50% over its November numbers to hit over 15.6 million, an increase over its former record of 15.2 million in January of this year.
The number of new addresses has also set a record of 6.8 million in December so far, compared to the former record of 6.6 million in May 2023.
One metric that hasn't yet set a record: non-voting transactions, which are still below their November numbers. On the Solana network, the same transactions that send money or trigger smart contracts are also used to validate the network, making non-voting transactions an important metric for real user activity.

Bloomberg columnist Claudia Sahm believes that as Trump continues to pressure for rate cuts while inflation remains well above the 2% target, raising rates is becoming an option again, leaving Waller facing a tough decision next week. The Federal Reserve has three paths: raising rates without Waller’s support, which could trigger rare internal divisions; holding steady, which may invite criticism of political interference; or Waller leading a rate hike, which could withstand White House pressure and defend policy independence.
