SpaceX shares went live on Solana the same day the company hit Nasdaq, and that simultaneity is the signal worth paying attention to. The token, trading as SPCX, opened eleven percent above its offer price.

Standard Chartered trimmed its twenty twenty-six price target from three hundred ten dollars to two hundred fifty, a nineteen percent cut. The analyst maintained the two thousand dollar twenty thirty target, which implies roughly three times upside from current levels.
Separate from the price story, there's a hard infrastructure deadline arriving in August. Agave v4.2 enables eXpress Data Path by default on mainnet.
