SOL Price Recovers as Vitalik Tweets Support for Solana Community

Ethereum creator Vitalik Buterin seemingly helped Solana recover single-handedly today, Dec. 29, as he praised the project on Twitter. Buterin wrote in a tweet: Some smart people tell me there is an earnest smart developer community in Solana, and now that the awful opportunistic money people have been washed out, the chain has a bright future. Hard for me to tell from the outside, but I hope the community gets its fair chance to thrive. The price of Solana (SOL) sat close to $9.44 for much of today. It then fell 13.2% to $8.19 in a matter of hours. Following Buterin’s tweet, the price rose 24.8% to $10.22. (cryptoslate)

  • Trump team files complaint over Harris inheriting $96 million in Biden campaign funds

    According to reports from foreign media, the Trump campaign team has filed a complaint with the Federal Election Commission, claiming that Biden's transfer of $96 million in campaign funds to Harris is illegal. David Warrington, a lawyer for the Trump campaign team, said that this was a "shameless money-grabbing act" and would constitute the largest excessive donation and most serious violation in the history of the Federal Election Law. Shortly after Biden withdrew from the election and appointed Harris as his preferred successor, she took over Biden's campaign committee's bank account. Steve Roberts, a lawyer who represented Republican candidates, said that the argument against the transfer was a "wishful thinking" of his Republican colleagues. The Harris campaign team said that this complaint would not affect its fundraising or spending.
