Solana Leads Crypto Market Decline as Bitcoin Falls Below $80K Amid Inflation Fears

Solana (SOL) led the cryptocurrency market lower on Thursday as rising inflation concerns and growing geopolitical tensions between the United States and China triggered a broad sell-off across digital assets. SOL dropped 5.6% to around $90, erasing most of the gains it had accumulated over the past two weeks and making it the worst-performing major cryptocurrency of the session.
