Solana (SOL), until recently a top-performing digital asset, shed 15% of its value over the past week. The decline briefly pushed SOL to the seventh spot in market capitalization rankings below Circle’s USDC stablecoin before it reclaimed the sixth position despite a 4.54% drop over the prior 24 hours, according to CoinMarketCap data. 

At press time, SOL traded near $118.49 with a valuation of approximately $60.74 billion.
