Solana Leads Crypto Markets With Nearly 27 Percent Weekly Gain

Crypto markets had a strong week, with Solana leading the rally on a nearly 27 percent seven-day gain through Tuesday evening, August 25, 2026 Tehran time. According to CoinGecko data, Solana traded around $97 over that period. EcoIran reported the rally followed unease in US bond markets after Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent announced a long-term Treasury bond buyback plan, a development that also pushed global gold prices and bitcoin toward their recent 100-day highs. CoinGecko data shows bitcoin gained roughly 22 percent over the same week, climbing toward the $79,000 range.
