- Brave Software has partnered with blockchain platform Solana to offer users access to top Solana dApps on the browser.
- The Brave browser is increasing in popularity in the Web 3.0 ecosystem.

In addition to storing, sending, and buying SPL tokens in the wallet, you can now also connect and interact with apps like @MagicEden, @Orca_so, and @JupiterExchange, right in your browser app.
Furthermore, Brave has explained that the integration will allow Brave software users to seamlessly access top Solana dApps such as Magic Eden, Orca, Jupiter Exchange, and others to perform DeFi and NFT-related transactions on both the mobile and web versions of the browser.

With more than 50 million active monthly Brave users, the integration of Solana into the Brave browser could propel the Solana ecosystem as it looks to regain its losses from 2022.
Solana Flying Closer to the Sun?
Solana has a history of being a top-performing digital currency and is considered one of the most renowned Ethereum killers.
As 2023 kicked off, Solana’s early performance was reportedly fueled by the rapid embrace of its meme coin, Bonk (BONK), which tripled in value eight days after its launch but has since decreased in value.
After the collapse of FTX, Solana has required a unique and positive fundamental to re-energize its ecosystem and increase the buying of SOL.
The Brave browser is increasing in popularity in the Web 3.0 ecosystem, and the addition of Solana dApp support can result in the expanded reach to communities “seeking fast and friendly ways to use their crypto on the go,” according to Brendan Eich, CEO and co-founder of Brave.
At the time of writing, the price of Solana (SOL) has increased by 1.60% to $23.20 USD in the last 24 hours. A continued upward trajectory for the price of SOL would potentially represent anticipation and support from the community about the partnership.
On the Flipside
- Criticism about Solana being too centralized may affect the viability of any of the ecosystem’s ventures and partnerships in Web 3.0 circles.
- Despite having robust DeFi and NFT ecosystems, Solana has no known protocol upgrade scheduled in its roadmap, unlike its competitors like Cardano (ADA).
