On January 12, 2026, automated trading bot platform Trojan introduced a Solana-based trading terminal that integrates MetaMask as its native wallet. The new terminal, branded as the Trojan on Solana Bot, targets millions of existing users with features like lightning-fast execution, custom routing, copy trading, and auto-selling. With support for Ethereum, Solana, and Bitcoin via MetaMask, the platform aims to enhance the trading experience and draw in users from multiple blockchains.

On January 12, 2026, data attributed to analyst Rand showed that Ethereum's gas costs have fallen to a five-year low following recent network upgrades such as Fusaka and Pectra. The network reportedly processed 2.2 million daily transactions with an average fee of $0.17 at the end of December, improving its competitiveness with rivals like Solana. Despite these on-chain gains, Ether's price has largely struggled below $3,000 for most of 2025, though observers suggest sustained lower fees could eventually support stronger market performance.
