SOL withdrawals in high volume could be a culmination of enthusiasm around the meme coin and a surge of 11.23% in its token value over the past 24 hours.

An increased enthusiasm around SOL is likely the result of the launch of TRUMP meme coin which is now live on Solana. It can be bought using a debit card or a cryptocurrency.

Meanwhile, Binance has asked users to register to receive notifications when SOL withdrawals resume. The platform has not given a timeline but the withdrawal function should resume soon.

SOL price is now at $236.38, which also reflects an uptick of 26.90% in the last 7 days and an increase of 12.39% in the last 1 month. The 24-hour trading volume has jumped by 57.02%, with an increase of 11.19% in the market cap.
