Solana (SOL) experienced a significant surge on Mar. 4, following the rally of Bitcoin, with a 7% increase in just 24 hours. This surge propelled SOL to overtake Binance’s BNB coin, securing a higher rank among the top five cryptocurrencies.

The price of SOL soared above $140, reaching a two-year high and levels not seen since April 2022, marking a milestone for the digital asset. This surge comes three months after the peak of the bull cycle in 2021.

Bitcoin also hit a new all-time high, surpassing $69,000 before retracing to around $65,000, amidst market selloffs and profit-taking by traders. The leading cryptocurrency faced a technical resistance wall at its ATH, leading to the retracement.

“The total cryptocurrency market cap saw a 3% increase in 24 hours, driven by the surge in Bitcoin and Solana prices,” according to CoinMarketCap data.

During this market rally, eCash (XEC) witnessed a remarkable surge of over 53% in a single day, with trading volumes exceeding $1.5 billion. Despite this surge, eCash remains 88% below its previous all-time high recorded in November 2021. Launched in July 2021, eCash is a digital payment method.

Additionally, Terra Classic (LUNA), the original Luna crypto, experienced a 38% jump in price, with a daily trading volume of $596 million. This surge coincided with Terraform Labs founder Do Kwon’s legal victory in Montenegro, challenging his extradition to the U.S. for criminal prosecution.
