Trezor hardware wallets add support for Solana and SPL tokens

SUMMARY Trezor, the crypto hardware manufacturer, has expanded its support to include Solana (SOL) and Solana Program Library (SPL) tokens, responding to the rising interest and price surge of Solana. The company announced the integration on its social media platform X, emphasizing compatibility with its hardware wallets Model T and Safe 3.

The Trezor Safe 3, priced at $79 and equipped with a dedicated security chip, and the Model T, featuring a touch screen interface with a $179 price tag, now enable users to manage over 8,000 coins and tokens, facilitating functions such as sending, receiving, and trading assets.

SOL, the native token of the Solana blockchain, and SPL, Solana’s equivalent to Ethereum’s ERC-20 token standard, are now supported by Trezor. This move aligns with the heightened interest in Solana, reflected in its current price of $80.34, marking an 8.62% increase in the last 24 hours and a remarkable 266.8% surge from approximately $22 in early October.

The surge in Solana’s popularity is further evident in Google search volume, which rose by 250% between early October and mid-December, showcasing a growing trend in both trading activity and online searches for Solana.
