One of the most successful blockchain projects, Solana (SOL), has established itself as one consistent prodigy. Yet, with its meteoric rise, substantial returns have become less likely for new investors attempting to find the next big opportunity. Headlines are discussing a new AI trading platform that has reached $8 million in its presale. Based on its technological advancements, experts believe it could very well be the ‘Next Solana’.
Launched in 2020, Solana (SOL) gained popularity as developers and traders embraced its unique hybrid consensus model. Through proof of history (PoH) and proof of stake (PoS) it managed to reach a TPS (transactions per second) of 65,000. Solana recently hit a new all time-high of $294 in January of 2025.
However, SOL experienced a steep correction. At press time, Solana is changing hands at around $212.98, with the SOL price falling over 25% in the last 2 weeks. Fueled by a lawsuit against the SOL-based platform Pump.fun, which allegedly facilitated trade of unregistered securities. Analysts claim that Solana could drop below $200 in the short term.
Combining AI with the blockchain technology to launch a next gen trading ecosystem – IntelMarkets (INTL) is hailed as the ‘Next Solana’. Unlike other traditional crypto exchanges, IntelMarkets’ AI-powered trading robots perform real time market analysis and high frequency trading strategies. The Intell-M bots learn from the market trends, execute optimized trades, and perform complex automated strategies at mind blowing speed.
The dual-chain architecture of the project allows transactions to be processed on Solana and Ethereum blockchains allowing users to tap into hybrid ecosystems with SOL’s speed with ETH’s security and liquidity. With obvious growth potential in the application of AI on finance, INTL has already caught a lot of investor attention. With more than $8 million raised in sales it’s clear that the project’s vision has been embraced by the community.
In 2020, SOL began its ICO at a price of only $0.22, compared to today when its price increased 1,000x. Currently, in the 9th ICO stage, INTL tokens are priced at just $0.08, with the potential for an SOL-like 1000x increase. The AI narrative will aid in the next crypto waves of adoption, as it did for DeFi and NFTs. Leading this trend, IntelMarkets is emerging as an AI-driven ecosystem to increase trading efficiency and is one of the most promising investment opportunities in 2025.
With SOL facing some legal issues, the next big opportunity is IntelMarkets (INTL), which has AI solutions that could change the trading world. Its $8 million fundraising milestone, combined with its low presale price of $0.08, indicates buyers are buying up in huge numbers. Being one of the fastest-growing ICOs with its innovative technology and AI integration, IntelMarkets can become a top-performing altcoin in 2025.
