THE LATEST CRYPTO NEWS

The Solana price has fallen by a considerable amount after hitting an all-time high of almost $300 back in January 2025. Even with the recent market recovery, the price is still sitting over 45% below its all-time high price, highlighting the struggles that the altcoin has faced in recent times. Amid this, a crypto analyst has suggested that the Solana price could crash even further from here, predicting a 40% crash could be in the cards once more. Why Solana Could See A Price Crash Crypto analyst The Alchemist Trader has highlighted the development of a rare bullish harmonic pattern on the Solana price chart. Now, while this pattern formation is inherently bullish for any digital asset, the shorter term does come with some hurdles for the altcoin to surmount first. Related Reading: Bitcoin Open Interest Climbs Above December 2024 Levels, Here’s What Happened Last Time The main thing to focus on here is that this bullish pattern does initially trigger a liquidity sweep of previous lows. In this case, the recent Solana price low lies at the $95 level, which is a 40% decrease from its current price, trending above $150. The possibility of this low sweep is made even more prominent by a couple of technical developments on the chart. The first technical point the analyst shows is the Point of Control (POC) Battle. According to the analysis, the Solana price is now testing this POC level with low momentum, shown by the slow climb over the last few days. Additionally, there is also mounting resistance at the Value Area High and the 0.618 Fibonacci level, which lies just above $163. Then, there is the completion of the C-leg of the wave, putting it as low as $95. A crash to this level becomes more likely if the Solana price fails to break through the resistance with conviction. If the price is rejected and the C-leg does play out, then this correction is expected to trigger the 40% crash to the $95 level. It’s Not All Bearish News As already mentioned above, the bearish leg of the rare bullish harmonic pattern is only temporary and often gives way to an even stronger impulse move. As the crypto analyst explains, the crash to $95 will only happen in the immediate short term, but it does not actually invalidate the overall bullish trend. Related Reading: Market Expert Says It’s Now ‘Illegal’ To Short Bitcoin, Here’s Why Once the D-leg is over and the crash is completed, the crypto analyst predicts that the Solana price will start to rally again. From the predicted $05 lows, an over 100% move is expected to take it back to $200 and beyond before the rally is over. The analyst explains that “Until this scenario is confirmed or invalidated, Solana remains range-bound between major high time frame levels.” Therefore, “Traders should stay alert for signs of rejection at current resistance — or, conversely, a volume-backed breakout above the value area high that would negate the harmonic setup.” Featured image from Dall.E, chart from TradingView.com

Solana meme coin launchpad Pump.fun has lost a significant chunk of its market share to LetsBonk.fun. This comes just ahead of the former’s token generation event, in which the launchpad could raise up to $4 billion.  Solana’s Pump.fun Loses Dominance To LetsBonk.fun In an X post, Solana News revealed that Pump.fun has hit a new all-time low with just a 36% market share, while LetsBonk.fun’s market share has surged to 54%. Jup data also confirms this development. At press time, LetsBonk boasts a market share of 48.90%, with a 24-hour trading volume of $539 million. On the other hand, Pump boasts a market share of 39.80%, with a 24-hour trading volume of $438 million.  Related Reading: Analyst Says Buying This Meme Coin Is A 3X Leveraged Play If Solana ETFs Go Live This development comes amid Pump.fun’s proposed public token sale, scheduled for July 12. Well-known Solana influencer Lynk has described this token sale as the “final scam” for the meme coin launchpad. The platform has been under heavy criticism for the amount of money that it has extracted from the Solana ecosystem, without incentivizing community members in any way.  Some community members had expected Pump.fun to airdrop its token to rewards platform users instead of conducting a public token sale. Lynk shared details of the public sale, with the meme coin launchpad planning to sell the ‘PUMP’ tokens $0.004 each. The token boasts a total supply of 1 trillion, meaning a fully diluted value (FDV) of $4 billion.  However, Pump.fun plans to raise around $600 million from the public token sale, as only $150 billion tokens will be available. The meme coin launchpad is expected to also conduct a private sale in order to complete its $1 billion capital raise effort, as earlier reported.  LetsBonk.fun To Keep Dominating Pump.fun In an X post, crypto influencer Unipcs, also known as ‘Bonk Guy,’ opined that Pump.fun isn’t done, but that LetsBonk.fun will likely continue to be the industry leader. He predicts that this will be the case for the foreseeable future. He outlined several reasons why he believes this would be the case.  Related Reading: Solana Picture Bigger Than $420: Analyst Predicts 140% Surge To New ATHs Firstly, he stated that LetsBonk’s pro-creator, pro-people, pro-Solana ecosystem alignment is a massive strength over Pump.fun. Secondly, Bonk Guy remarked that the strong culture of support within the BONK ecosystem is incredibly hard to replicate by any other platform in a short period.  Furthermore, the crypto influencer remarked that Pump.fun had a lot of momentum as a tokenless protocol, especially with a token generation event (TGE). However, LetsBonk.fun was able to flip the platform during this period. As such, Bonk Guy believes that it is hard to see Pump.fun sustainably recover the kind of market share it once had after the TGE event.  He also suggested that a “non-negligible amount of activity on Pump.fun is inorganic with a lot os users farming on the platform, hoping that there was going to be an airdrop. As such, the influencer believes that the traffic will dry up once the TGE is over. Featured image from Adobe Stock, chart from Tradingview.com

Solana is facing a critical test this week, consolidating in a tight range between $145 and $160 since Monday. The price action reflects strong buying interest but also hesitation as bulls struggle to reclaim higher levels. Despite holding above key support, Solana must break decisively above resistance to confirm a bullish breakout and continue its upward trend. Related Reading: Ethereum Forms Rising Wedge Pattern – $2,200 Support Back In Focus? Market momentum has favored bulls in recent weeks, but Solana’s inability to breach the $160 zone raises questions about the strength of this trend. Top analyst Carl Runefelt shared insights highlighting that Solana is currently ranging within a rising channel pattern—a structure that, while seemingly bullish, can often precede a breakdown to lower demand zones if support fails. This makes the coming days especially important for SOL’s trajectory. As macro conditions improve and Bitcoin flirts with new all-time highs, Solana is expected to respond in kind. However, technical signals suggest caution. A break below the rising channel could target the $128.50 support area, while a successful breakout above $160 could open the door to retesting local highs. Traders and investors alike are closely watching Solana’s next move in this high-stakes consolidation phase. Solana Holds Key Support Amid Rising Channel Formation Solana is currently trading below the $150 level, reflecting a notable 20% decline from its local high set in May. Despite this setback, the asset continues to hold a strong support base, signaling that bullish sentiment has not entirely faded. The broader market remains in a consolidation phase, with Solana showing signs of indecision as it moves sideways within a tightening price range. Analysts remain cautiously optimistic, pointing out that a breakout above the key $150–$160 supply zone could spark renewed upside momentum. However, the current price structure suggests that Solana may not be ready yet to retest previous highs. According to Carl Runefelt, Solana is ranging within a rising channel—a pattern that can lead to sharp movements if broken. While rising channels can sustain bullish continuation, a breakdown below the lower trendline often results in accelerated downside moves. Runefelt warns that if Solana breaks below the channel, the next key support area lies around $128.50. This level has historically acted as a strong demand zone and could serve as the next target in the event of a bearish move. In the meantime, Solana’s consolidation reflects broader market uncertainty, with traders waiting for a decisive breakout or breakdown to guide positioning. A successful reclaim of the $150 level would improve sentiment significantly and could set the stage for a push toward the $170–$180 range. On the other hand, failure to hold above current levels may shift the narrative toward further downside risk. Related Reading: Chainlink Consolidates Above Key Support – Bulls Eye $20 Range SOL Holds Range Amid Resistance Solana (SOL) is currently trading at $147.62, moving sideways within a tightening range and forming a potential rising channel pattern. The daily chart reveals that SOL has been unable to break decisively above the $155–$160 resistance zone, while strong support remains near the $140 level. Price action shows repeated rejections near the 100-day moving average (blue line), which now acts as dynamic resistance around $155.60. The 200-day moving average (red) sits further above $165.54, marking a long-term resistance area. Volume remains relatively low compared to early June spikes, suggesting market participants are waiting for a clear breakout direction. A push above $160 would likely trigger bullish momentum, potentially opening the door toward the $170 level. However, the rising channel identified by analysts suggests a possible downside risk if the lower trendline fails. Related Reading: Litecoin Surges Past Descending Resistance – Bulls Target $97.10 Level If Solana breaks below the $145 support and falls out of the channel, the next target would be the $128.50 area, which previously acted as a demand zone in mid-May. Until then, bulls must defend current levels and aim to reclaim the 100-day SMA to maintain the broader recovery structure. The coming sessions may offer clarity as consolidation nears its resolution. Featured image from Dall-E, chart from TradingView

Solana has returned to the spotlight as speculation around a potential Solana ETF approval gains momentum. While still unconfirmed, growing signals from market insiders suggest that regulatory green lights may not be far off. If approved, a Solana ETF would mark a major milestone for the ecosystem, opening the door to traditional capital flows and broader institutional exposure, similar to what Bitcoin and Ethereum experienced following their own ETF breakthroughs. For long-term investors, this development could set the foundation for a new phase of sustainable growth. Related Reading: Strong Ethereum Accumulation Detected: LTH Buying Heavy During June Consolidation Supporting this bullish outlook is fresh data from Glassnode, which shows that the number of wallets holding over 0.1 SOL has reached a new all-time high. This milestone marks an increase in retail participation and growing confidence in Solana’s long-term potential. As the network continues to mature, the rise in small holders also signals expanding grassroots adoption—an encouraging sign during a period of market uncertainty. While short-term price action may still be driven by broader macro trends, sentiment around Solana is clearly improving. If ETF approval becomes a reality, the combination of increased accessibility and rising on-chain adoption could significantly boost Solana’s market position in the coming months. Solana Growing On-Chain Adoption Solana is currently trading below the $150 mark after experiencing a sharp retracement from its May high. The asset has lost more than 20% in value since peaking earlier this cycle, driven largely by broader market consolidation and declining risk appetite across altcoins. Despite the recent pullback, SOL continues to hold a strong support zone near the $135–$140 range, which has proven resilient during previous sell-offs. Analysts remain cautiously optimistic, noting that a sustained push above key supply zones—particularly the $155–$165 range—could reignite bullish momentum. However, the market remains in a phase of indecision. Price action across major assets, including Solana, reflects uncertainty as traders wait for a clear breakout or breakdown to confirm the next move. Without a strong catalyst, SOL may continue to consolidate alongside the broader altcoin market. Amid the sideways price action, one encouraging signal is the growing on-chain adoption. Top analyst Ali Martinez shared data from Glassnode showing that the number of wallets holding over 0.1 SOL has reached a new all-time high, now exceeding 11.44 million. This steady rise in non-zero wallets points to expanding retail participation and long-term holder confidence, even as short-term volatility persists. The divergence between price action and user adoption suggests that Solana’s fundamental growth remains intact. If momentum returns and macro conditions improve, Solana may be well-positioned for a breakout, especially with ETF rumors fueling speculative interest. For now, the $150 level remains a psychological pivot as the market watches for signs of direction. Related Reading: Bitcoin Dominance Shows Bearish Divergence – Altseason Could Be Near SOL Price Action Details: Key Levels To Watch Solana (SOL) is currently trading at $149.30, just below the key resistance confluence of the 50-day, 100-day, and 200-day moving averages, all clustered between $150 and $151. This area has acted as a strong technical barrier, and SOL’s repeated failure to reclaim it reflects the market’s hesitancy amid broader uncertainty. After rallying to $159.99 earlier in the session, bears stepped in and pushed the price back down, closing the candle with a bearish wick, signaling ongoing selling pressure. The chart reveals a prolonged consolidation pattern that has developed since the mid-May rejection near $180. Despite several bounce attempts, SOL has not been able to regain bullish momentum. The volume profile also suggests fading interest during upswings, a common trait during accumulation or exhaustion phases. Notably, price remains above the March low, preserving a key higher low structure, which is crucial for the broader bullish outlook. Related Reading: Bitcoin Struggles Below ATH After Weeks Of Failed Attempts – $109K Level In Focus If SOL breaks above the $151–$155 range with sustained volume, it could trigger a move toward $180. However, failure to clear this resistance might lead to another test of support around $135. Traders should watch for a decisive close above the moving average cluster to confirm trend continuation, especially with ETF speculation fueling long-term optimism.

As the crypto market looks toward a recovery and the likes of Solana make their way out of losses, a crypto trader has called out one meme coin that could be a great play as the SOL price recovers. The BONK meme coin, currently the largest meme coin in the Solana ecosystem and billed for triggering the revival of the blockchain, continues to receive a lot of support as a meme coin that could outperform as the market ushers in the next altcoin season. Solana’s BONK Meme Coin Is The Play Crypto analyst and trader Unipcs became popular in crypto circles on the social media platform X (formerly Twitter) after turning $16,000 into more than $10 million with a long BONK trade. Despite making what many have referred to as a life-changing trade, the trader has refused to close this trade, with the expectation that the meme coin will continue to rise. Related Reading: TD Sequential Flashes Buy: Dogecoin Ready For Rebound To $0.21 In a recent post, Unipcs has once again reiterated his support for the BONK meme coin and why he believes it’s a great play to be involved in. The post mainly points to bullish developments surrounding the Solana ecosystem and why BONK could be a way to maximize gains as the Solana price rallies. The first bullish development the crypto analyst points to is the fact that a Solana ETF is expected to hit the market soon. When this happens, the Solana price is expected to recover in response, possibly rising toward new all-time highs, something that would translate into more bullishness for meme coins domiciled on the blockchain. As for BONK, Unipcs explained that the meme coin acts as a 3X leveraged bet on the Solana price. This is because historically, the BONK price has often risen 3X higher than any gains that Solana puts in. Its highly volatile nature as a meme coin also contributes to this, as it is prone to rapid bursts of rising prices, the same way it is prone to quick crashes. Related Reading: Bitcoin Price At $110,000: Why BTC Must Break Out Of This Wedge Furthermore, the expectations of a Solana ETF being approved by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) are not the only thing propelling the bullishness of BONK. BONK, itself, also has a pending ETF filing with the commission, and the approval of a Solana ETF increases the likelihood of a BONK ETF approval, giving the meme coin even more fuel to rally. Given these bullish factors, the crypto analyst believes that being in BONK could be a good play, especially as the price remains 75% below its all-time high. “Ff we do get Solana season soon, you do not want to be underexposed to BONK,” Unipcs said in closing.

Solana has broken down decisively, losing a critical support level following news that the United States launched an attack on Iranian nuclear facilities. The unexpected geopolitical development triggered widespread panic across financial markets, with altcoins taking the hardest hit. Solana, in particular, has seen significant selling pressure, dropping 20% from its May high of approximately $185 and now trading near $148. Related Reading: Ethereum Charts Signal Potential Bottom – All Eyes On Next Move This breakdown confirms investor concerns that SOL’s uptrend has weakened. Top analyst Carl Runefelt noted that Solana has completed a Head and Shoulders pattern—a bearish technical structure often signaling deeper downside. The price has broken below the neckline of this pattern, confirming the potential for continued declines in the short term. Adding to the bearish outlook is Solana’s inability to reclaim its prior support levels during brief bounces. With momentum indicators turning negative and broader market sentiment rattled, the likelihood of a swift recovery appears slim unless macro conditions stabilize. Solana Faces Deeper Correction As Bearish Pattern Unfolds Solana’s bullish momentum from late 2024 has all but faded, replaced by stagnation and sharp corrections as market conditions worsen. Now trading more than 50% below its all-time high, SOL continues to struggle under the weight of global macroeconomic uncertainty and rising geopolitical tensions. The US military strike on Iranian nuclear facilities has only added to the volatility, sending shockwaves through both traditional and crypto markets. While Solana was one of the strongest performers during the previous cycle, its price action has turned decisively bearish in recent weeks. Bulls have failed to maintain critical support levels, and the asset has now broken below its short-term trend structures. According to Runefelt, Solana has completed a Head and Shoulders pattern, a classic technical signal that often precedes a prolonged downtrend. The pattern’s neckline has been breached, and the projected bearish target now stands around $106.30—a level not seen since February. The breakdown also reflects broader weakness in the altcoin market. Despite earlier hopes for an altseason, capital has rotated out of risk assets, favoring Bitcoin and stablecoins amid uncertainty. Solana’s inability to reclaim prior highs or establish higher lows points to a market in retreat. Momentum indicators continue to flash red, and unless bulls reclaim lost ground quickly, SOL could be facing an extended period of consolidation or further losses. Related Reading: Tron Energy Usage Surges 108% – Smart Contract Activity Accelerates SOL Price Analysis: Breaking Below Key Support Solana is under pressure as it breaks below the critical 200-day simple moving average (SMA) around $149.54, a level that had previously acted as dynamic support. This breakdown signals growing bearish sentiment as price action confirms a loss of momentum following weeks of consolidation below the $155–$160 resistance zone. As of now, SOL is trading at approximately $135.99, down nearly 3% on the day and over 20% from its May highs. The chart shows a rejection near the 100-day SMA (green line), and the sustained move below both the 200-day and 50-day SMAs (blue line) points to a shifting structure, leaning heavily toward the downside. Volume remains elevated on red candles, confirming that the breakdown is supported by increasing sell pressure rather than a low-liquidity move. Related Reading: Ethereum Prepares For A Decisive Move: ETH/BTC Setup Could Trigger Altseason If the current trend continues, Solana could revisit the $120–$125 range, which previously served as strong support in early Q1 2025. The broader context of macroeconomic volatility and geopolitical tension, particularly the recent U.S. attack on Iran, adds to investor unease across risk assets, including altcoins like Solana. A daily close back above $149 would be needed to neutralize the short-term bearish structure and shift sentiment. Until then, downside risks dominate.

Solana is currently testing a critical demand zone near the $150 level after enduring weeks of persistent selling pressure and a broader shift in market sentiment. The asset is now trading roughly 20% below its May high of $185, with recent attempts at recovery facing strong resistance. Despite holding above major support for now, the overall structure suggests that downside risk remains if market conditions don’t improve soon. Related Reading: Ethereum Analyst Eyes High Timeframe Close – Range Break Above $2,800 Could Be Violent Top analyst Efloud shared a technical analysis on X, highlighting the importance of tracking Solana’s response to broader Bitcoin dynamics. He noted that if Bitcoin (BTC) continues to consolidate sideways while Bitcoin dominance (BTC.D) rises, altcoins like SOL may struggle. In that case, Solana could continue retracing to find stronger support at mid-zones, particularly around the $123 and $116 levels. These price zones have previously acted as solid support/resistance areas and could serve as key inflection points should bearish momentum persist. A breakdown toward these targets would likely coincide with increasing BTC.D and continued investor caution in the altcoin market. Until then, SOL remains vulnerable within a fragile technical structure, and traders will closely watch for either a rebound or deeper correction in the coming days. Solana Holds Key Support As Analysts Eye Bullish Scenarios Solana is currently trading about 50% down from its all-time highs, with the explosive momentum seen at the end of 2024 now replaced by more subdued price action. The asset’s underperformance has left investors cautious, but many analysts remain optimistic about Solana’s potential once a new altcoin rally begins. For now, the focus is on holding critical demand zones that could determine whether SOL is gearing up for a recovery or further downside. According to Efloud, if Bitcoin continues consolidating sideways while Bitcoin dominance rises, Solana may find support at several mid-zones, particularly around $123 and $116. The $140 region has historically acted as a strong support/resistance flip, and a deviation around this level—losing it briefly before regaining it with strength—could present a short-term buying opportunity. Efloud notes that this scenario doesn’t necessarily imply that SOL must drop to those levels, but current market conditions—aside from Bitcoin—lack strong pair structures. If SOL can decisively break above the $168 resistance, a new leg upward could be triggered, with $230 potentially acting as the next major resistance zone. On the SOL/BTC pair, Efloud is watching for a reclaim of the 0.0015 level or a pullback toward 0.00115 for confirmation. Another key support sits at 0.000988 sats. Despite the current cooling, the structure may still offer solid opportunities for new entrants. If these levels hold and macro conditions improve, SOL could be setting the stage for a sustainable rally, ultimately leading to new all-time highs. Related Reading: Ethereum Mirrors Bitcoin 2017-2021 Pattern – $4,000 Is The Trigger Point Weekly Chart Analysis – Holding the Line Near Key Support Solana is currently trading at $148.33 on the weekly timeframe, showing a 3% decline over the past seven days. The price has dropped roughly 20% from its May high of around $185 and is now testing the critical $140–$150 support zone. This level has repeatedly acted as a pivot point in the past and could define SOL’s short-term trajectory. The chart shows that Solana has been unable to reclaim the 50-week moving average (currently near $170), which now acts as key resistance. A decisive weekly close above this level would open the door for a bullish continuation toward $185 and possibly $200. However, failure to hold above the 100-week moving average around $132 could lead to further downside pressure, with $123 and $116 as the next demand zones to watch—levels identified by analyst Efloud in his mid-zone scenario. Related Reading: Bitcoin Consolidates as Realized Profits Stay Low – No Signs Of Major Sell-Off Yet Volume has declined steadily over the past three weeks, signaling reduced participation, but also suggesting that aggressive selling is fading. If bulls manage to reclaim $160 with conviction, the structure remains favorable.

After a volatile but bullish start to June, Solana (SOL) is now facing strong selling pressure amid rising global uncertainty. The sudden escalation in the Middle East—triggered by Israel’s recent strike on Iran—has sparked market-wide volatility, prompting a flight to safety and a pullback across risk assets. Solana, which had been showing momentum alongside Bitcoin and Ethereum, has dropped over 15% since June 11, erasing much of its early-month gains. Related Reading: Ethereum Repeats History – Key Support Holds Again Ahead Of Potential Rally As macro risks continue to rise, the altcoin market remains vulnerable to further downside. SOL is now approaching a critical technical level, and a breakdown could signal deeper losses if global tensions persist. Top analyst Cheds shared a technical analysis revealing that Solana is now re-testing a key daily demand zone, a level that previously supported bullish continuation. If this area fails to hold, Solana could revisit lower support levels seen earlier this year. For now, traders are watching closely to see if buyers step in to defend the zone or if further conflict will fuel more risk-off behavior. The next few days will be critical in determining whether SOL can bounce or if the broader market downturn intensifies. Solana Re-Tests Key Support As Market Tensions Mount Solana is standing below key levels, retracing after a brief rally attempt earlier this week. The asset had spent several days consolidating beneath the $170 level, failing to break above resistance as selling pressure intensified amid rising global tensions. Now, with the broader market on edge following the Israel–Iran conflict escalation, SOL finds itself back at a critical support zone. Bulls remain cautiously optimistic, encouraged by the broader market’s resilience and the potential for Bitcoin and Ethereum to regain strength. However, caution dominates sentiment as Solana, like most altcoins, still trades significantly below its all-time high near $260. The current environment of geopolitical risk and macroeconomic uncertainty has suppressed momentum in the altcoin space, making support levels all the more important. Cheds highlighted in a recent update that Solana is now re-testing a key daily demand zone around the $145 level. This zone has previously acted as a launchpad for bullish moves, and holding above it could provide the structure needed for a new leg higher. However, failure to maintain this level might open the door for further downside, with the next major support below $130. For now, all eyes are on how Solana reacts around $145. A solid bounce with increased volume could attract short-term buyers looking to ride a potential recovery. But with global markets rattled by uncertainty, the coming sessions will be crucial in determining whether this demand zone becomes a springboard—or a trapdoor. Related Reading: Ethereum Tests Previous Resistance As Support – Can Bulls Defend This Level? SOL Price Analysis: Re-Test of Support as Volatility Spikes Solana is currently trading at $145.24 after an aggressive drop from the $165–$170 range. The 4-hour chart shows a clear breakdown below all key moving averages (50, 100, and 200), which had previously served as dynamic support. The red 200 SMA at $165.33 now acts as overhead resistance, capping short-term recovery attempts. The recent sell-off—triggered by broader geopolitical tensions in the Middle East—pushed SOL straight into a key demand zone around $143–$145, where buyers have historically stepped in. The long lower wick from today’s candle reflects strong intraday buying at these levels, suggesting that some participants see this as a value zone. However, volume remains elevated, and the structure appears fragile. Any failure to hold $145 could open the door to a deeper retracement toward the $130 region. On the flip side, reclaiming the 100 SMA at $157.46 would be an early sign of renewed bullish momentum. Related Reading: Solana Forms Higher Low: Charging Toward Range Highs? Momentum indicators likely remain oversold, and if the broader market stabilizes, this level could mark a temporary bottom. Still, with volatility high and macro uncertainty looming, traders may want to stay cautious until a clear direction emerges. For now, $145 is the line in the sand.

Solana is holding firm above the $150 level as bullish momentum builds across the broader crypto market. With both Bitcoin and Ethereum pushing into higher prices, investor sentiment is improving, and altcoins like Solana appear poised to follow once the major players confirm a breakout. After weeks of consolidation and volatility, the stage may be set for a stronger move if current trends hold. Related Reading: Ethereum Approaches Decisive Level – Trading Around 200 DMA Resistance Top analyst Jelle shared a technical analysis revealing that SOL has formed a higher low on the chart—a key bullish signal—and is now charging back toward the range highs. This structure indicates growing strength and the potential for Solana to retest and break through key resistance levels if buyers maintain pressure. The $150 zone now acts as a short-term support base, and as long as SOL holds above it, the bullish case remains intact. A confirmed breakout in BTC and ETH could act as the catalyst Solana needs to enter a new phase of upside. With the market leaning bullish and Solana’s technicals aligning, traders are watching closely to see if this move is the beginning of Solana’s next leg higher in the ongoing altcoin cycle. Solana Approaches Resistance As Bulls Regain Momentum Solana is showing renewed strength after spending several days consolidating below the $160 level. With a fresh move upward, SOL is now pushing into key resistance just under $175, a zone that has capped price advances multiple times over the past few months. This renewed momentum comes as the broader crypto market heats up, with Bitcoin and Ethereum breaking higher and dragging sentiment with them. Still, despite the optimism, caution lingers. Most altcoins, including Solana, remain well below their all-time highs. Jelle highlighted a critical development in Solana’s structure: the formation of a higher low. This bullish signal suggests growing buyer confidence and technical strength, as SOL now charges back toward the top of its range. According to Jelle, a breakout above $185 would be the key trigger that opens the door to new all-time highs. While the short-term trend favors the bulls, one key hurdle remains — flipping the $175–$185 resistance zone into support. This region has consistently rejected upside attempts, and clearing it with strong volume and follow-through is essential for confirming the next leg higher. Until then, Solana remains in a recovery phase. But with improving market conditions and clear signs of accumulation, momentum is shifting. A confirmed breakout could mark the return of “Solana season,” where SOL reclaims leadership among top altcoins. For now, all eyes are on the $185 level — the line between consolidation and a potential explosive rally toward uncharted territory. Related Reading: Ethereum Still Rangebound Below $2,735 Level – No Clear Breakout Yet SOL Price Action Details Solana is currently trading at $165.80 on the daily timeframe, showing continued strength after reclaiming the 50-day SMA at $160.99. Price is now approaching the 100-day SMA at $175.70 — a key level that previously rejected multiple breakout attempts. The recent bounce from the $142–$145 support zone marked a higher low, reinforcing a bullish structure and setting the stage for another attempt to break through resistance. Volume has been rising modestly as price moves higher, suggesting growing interest and momentum among buyers. The crossover between the 50-day and 100-day SMAs would add further confirmation of trend strength, especially if SOL can maintain its current pace and push above $175 with conviction. Related Reading: Ethereum Consolidates As Momentum Builds – Analyst Has $3K In Sight For June A breakout above $175 would likely open the door for a retest of the psychological $190–$200 range, which has acted as a supply zone in recent months.

In a recent post on X, crypto analyst Grayhoood observed that Solana (SOL) is currently showing signs of a bullish trend. Over the past 24 hours, the price has climbed by 2.8%, with candlestick charts revealing a noticeable upward trajectory.  Solana Stochastics And CCI Signal Short-Term Strength Earlier in the day, SOL briefly dipped to around $151 but managed to recover steadily, reaching a current price of $155.35. Grayhoood pointed out that this short-term strength is consistent with Solana’s 7-day performance, which shows a modest 1.4% increase. However, the longer-term outlook remains volatile, with SOL still down by 3.9% over the past year.  Related Reading: Solana Picture Bigger Than $420: Analyst Predicts 140% Surge To New ATHs Grayhoood revealed that technical indicators are suggesting a cautiously optimistic outlook for SOL. As price action continues to show signs of recovery, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) is likely positioned in a neutral zone, indicating the recent uptick. This positioning allows space for further gains, but also signals a potential shift into overbought territory if SOL’s price surges too rapidly. The Stochastic Oscillator and Commodity Channel Index (CCI) also point to short-term bullish momentum, especially with SOL breaking through the $154 resistance level. These indicators suggest that buyers are regaining control. However, Grayhoood cautioned that while momentum appears to be building, the recent price dip observed earlier in the day reveals that sellers are not entirely out of the picture. Recovery Gains Traction, But Yearly Losses Still Weigh In To further reinforce his claim, the analyst pointed to Solana’s moving averages, which currently present a mixed but insightful technical outlook. In the short term, the 7-day and 14-day moving averages hint at a hold or mild buying pressure. This aligns with SOL’s recent bounce from $151 to $155.35, signaling that momentum may be shifting in favor of the bulls. Related Reading: Solana’s Old Hands Are Moving—Is Trouble Brewing? However, when viewed from a broader lens, long-term averages continue to reflect lingering weakness. The 30-day and yearly trends, which show declines of 9.3% and 3.9% respectively, suggest that the larger market remains cautious. These figures reveal that while the recent gains are encouraging, they have not fully reversed the bearish structure seen over the past months. Overall, the analyst believes that despite the volatility seen over the past few weeks, market sentiment is beginning to lean bullish in the short term. Solana’s recent performance, supported by its ability to reclaim key levels and maintain upward momentum, offers a more favorable outlook heading into the near future. If current trends persist and key resistances are successfully challenged, the path may open for a broader shift in sentiment. Featured image from Adobe Stock, chart from Tradingview.com

Solana (SOL) is showing resilience amid broader market weakness, as volatility shakes crypto assets across the board. After a sharp retrace alongside Bitcoin and Ethereum, Solana is stabilizing above key demand levels, sparking cautious optimism among investors. Many are eyeing this zone as a potential launchpad for the next leg up, especially as the market seeks to recover and regain bullish momentum.

Analysts point to strong structural support and a history of sharp rebounds from similar technical setups. Among them, top crypto analyst Ali Martinez recently shared a key signal that has caught the attention of traders: the TD Sequential indicator has flashed a buy signal for Solana on the daily timeframe. Historically, this signal has preceded notable price rallies, particularly when it aligns with strong support zones. With Solana holding firm and broader sentiment gradually improving, bulls are watching closely for a push into higher supply zones. If confirmed, a breakout from this range could send SOL toward new short-term highs. The coming days will be critical in determining whether Solana can sustain this momentum and lead the next altcoin rally. Solana Tests Support As TD Sequential Signals Rebound Solana is holding a critical support zone near $145 after shedding more than 20% of its value since late May. The correction has brought SOL into a key demand area, where bulls appear to be defending the level with strength. Despite attempts to reclaim $160, the altcoin has faced persistent resistance, with fading momentum and rising macro risks clouding short-term price action. Market-wide conditions haven’t helped either. Both Bitcoin and Ethereum have stalled below key resistance zones, failing to spark a broader rally in altcoins. This hesitation has intensified uncertainty, with some analysts calling for a deeper retracement in SOL if market leaders continue to slide. However, others remain optimistic that Solana could soon turn the tide. A key signal for Solana has emerged, with analyst Martinez reporting that the TD Sequential indicator printed a buy signal on the daily chart. Historically, this indicator has been a reliable precursor to significant local bottoms and bullish reversals, particularly when seen near strong support levels. With SOL recently experiencing a selloff and now stabilizing, this signal underscores the growing bullish potential. For now, Solana’s ability to hold above $145 will be key. A bounce from this level, combined with improving sentiment across large-cap assets, could trigger a fresh push toward $160 and beyond. If confirmed, such a move would signal that SOL is regaining strength and ready to retest higher resistance levels in the weeks ahead. Related Reading: Ethereum Stabilizes After Market Drop – Key MA Reclaim Could Trigger A June Rally SOL Retests Support After Prolonged Correction Solana (SOL) is trading at $148.44 after attempting a modest rebound from its recent local low near $145. The daily chart shows that SOL has lost momentum since peaking above $180 in late May, marking a 20% correction. Price is now holding just above the 100-day moving average (144.68), a key technical level that previously acted as support during consolidation phases. The 50-day and 34-day moving averages are now trending downward, with the 50-day SMA around $159.33 and the 34-day EMA near $159.35 — both acting as dynamic resistance. Meanwhile, the 200-day SMA remains higher at $177.49, reinforcing the presence of a strong overhead supply zone between $160 and $180. Despite the bearish pressure, volume has remained relatively muted during the recent drop, suggesting that panic selling hasn’t taken over yet. If SOL manages to hold above the $144–$145 region, this could form the base for a rebound, especially if broader market sentiment improves.

Solana (SOL) is currently navigating a challenging environment as the broader crypto market experiences a cooldown. After an impressive run earlier this year, momentum has slowed significantly, and SOL is struggling to reclaim the $160 level with conviction. The lack of strong demand has been evident in recent sessions, as buying pressure fades and volume remains low across major altcoins. Related Reading: Ethereum Consolidates Against BTC – Altseason Hopes Hinge On ETH/BTC Breakout Despite this cooling phase, many investors remain optimistic. A growing number of market participants believe Solana could lead the next altseason once conditions stabilize and liquidity returns to the market. Historically, SOL has shown the ability to recover rapidly and outperform in bullish phases, making it one of the top contenders for explosive upside when sentiment shifts. However, in the short term, caution prevails. Top analyst Carl Runefelt has highlighted a key technical development, noting that Solana might be on the verge of breaking a horizontal support zone. This event could trigger further downside in the near term. If this support fails, traders should prepare for increased volatility. Still, the broader consensus remains that SOL’s structural strength and ecosystem development position it well for long-term upside once macro conditions align. Solana Faces Bear Flag Breakdown Risk As Uncertainty Grows Solana has been locked in a tight range just below the $160 mark, struggling to reclaim key levels despite multiple attempts. For several days, momentum has faded, and with global markets under pressure, traders are bracing for increased volatility. The broader crypto market is losing steam as Bitcoin and Ethereum fail to sustain upward moves, which puts added pressure on altcoins like Solana. Geopolitical tensions between the U.S. and China continue to weigh on investor sentiment, with ongoing tariff disputes and rising bond yields fueling macroeconomic uncertainty. The US bond market, in particular, is flashing signs of stress, adding to the caution in risk-on assets. If these conditions persist, altcoins may face a challenging period as capital retreats to more stable assets like Bitcoin or exits the market altogether. Runefelt recently highlighted a key technical pattern on Solana’s chart—a bear flag forming around horizontal support. According to his analysis, this structure could break down any hour now, which would confirm the bearish setup and potentially send SOL down toward the $142 level. This target aligns with previous support zones and could act as a temporary bottom if the broader market stabilizes. Despite the short-term risks, long-term sentiment around Solana remains cautiously optimistic. The network’s continued development and strong DeFi presence could fuel a recovery once market conditions improve. For now, however, traders are closely watching the $160 resistance and the $150–$152 support area, which could determine the next directional move. A clean break below support would likely trigger a wave of selling, while a reclaim of the $160 level could invalidate the bearish setup and open the door for a bullish reversal. Related Reading: Solana Analyst Sets $300 Target – Can Bulls Sustain A Rally? SOL Tests Key Support As Bearish Momentum Builds Solana (SOL) is currently trading at $152.62 on the 4-hour chart, testing a critical horizontal support zone as bearish momentum continues. The recent price action shows a clear downtrend, with lower highs and lower lows forming since the rejection from the $176–$180 area in late May. All key moving averages—34 EMA, 50 SMA, 100 SMA, and 200 SMA—are positioned above the current price, signaling short-term weakness and a lack of bullish momentum. Volume has picked up slightly as price nears support, suggesting increasing market interest at this level. However, the failure to break above the 34 EMA (currently at $157.70) reinforces the view that sellers are still in control. The flattening 200 SMA at $165.31 and declining 50 SMA around $159.82 indicate that SOL must reclaim the $160–$165 zone to regain strength. Related Reading: Ethereum Daily Chart Signals Strength Amid Market Uncertainty – Analyst If the $150–$152 support range fails to hold, Solana could break down and target the next key support area around $142, in line with the projected move of the bear flag pattern identified by analysts. For now, bulls must defend this level to prevent deeper losses and keep hopes of a recovery alive in the near term. Featured image from Dall-E, chart from TradingView

Solana (SOL) continues to face resistance at the $160 level, failing to reclaim it despite multiple attempts over the past several days. As market momentum weakens and volatility rises, investors are growing cautious. Bitcoin and Ethereum—typically leading indicators—are also showing signs of exhaustion, unable to break past their recent highs. This has triggered concerns that a broader market retrace could follow. Related Reading: Ethereum Daily Chart Signals Strength Amid Market Uncertainty – Analyst Still, not all analysts are turning bearish. Prominent trader Kaleo shared a bullish technical outlook, suggesting that Solana remains one of the most promising altcoins if the crypto market regains strength. According to Kaleo, if momentum returns and the market heats up in the coming months, SOL could rally sharply and tag the $300 level—a move that would nearly double its current price. However, such a scenario would likely require broader participation and renewed appetite for risk across digital assets. For now, SOL trades in a tight range, with its short-term outlook hinging on the behavior of Bitcoin and Ethereum. If leading assets stabilize and bulls step back in, Solana could be primed for a breakout. Otherwise, further downside cannot be ruled out as uncertainty weighs on sentiment. Solana Faces Uncertainty But Eyes Explosive Breakout Above Multi-Year Resistance Solana (SOL) is currently struggling to find strong demand as market conditions cool following an intense rally earlier this year. While trading has slowed and bullish momentum appears to be fading, optimism persists among long-term investors. Many expect that once broader market strength returns, SOL could initiate a powerful move into higher supply zones and potentially reach new all-time highs. This cautious optimism comes amid growing global tensions. The ongoing tariff conflict between the United States and China continues to unsettle financial markets, and stress signals in the US bond market are raising alarms about systemic risks. Should these macroeconomic pressures intensify, altcoins like Solana may face renewed headwinds as investors rotate into safer assets. However, despite the current uncertainty, Kaleo maintains a bullish long-term outlook for SOL. According to his analysis, once Solana reaches the $300 level—a key historical resistance—it could break into price discovery. This would mark the end of a multi-year consolidation phase and potentially unleash a parabolic rally. Such a breakout would not only validate the strength of Solana’s fundamentals and ecosystem but also signal broader confidence returning to the altcoin sector. Until then, patience and strategic positioning remain crucial. Related Reading: Ethereum Reclaims Pivotal Level – Key Resistance Around $2,650 Key Support Holding But Momentum Remains Weak Solana (SOL) is trading at $157.46 after bouncing slightly from recent lows around $154, showing modest signs of stability. The price is testing the 34-day EMA near $162, which has acted as a dynamic resistance in recent sessions. SOL remains trapped below its 200-day SMA at $178.88, suggesting the broader trend remains under pressure. A reclaim of that level is crucial for bulls to regain confidence. Volume remains relatively muted, indicating a lack of strong conviction from either side. If SOL manages to push above the $162–$165 range, it could open the door for a retest of the $180 resistance zone. However, failure to break above the 34-day EMA soon may result in another leg down toward the 100-day SMA support near $144. Related Reading: Ethereum Poised For A 5-Figure Breakout – Volatility Is Shaking ‘Weak Hands’ The chart shows lower highs forming since mid-May, adding pressure to the bullish structure. However, the fact that SOL continues to hold above the $150 zone shows that buyers are still defending key demand. A decisive break and close above $165 on strong volume could confirm a short-term reversal. Until then, SOL remains range-bound with a neutral-to-bearish bias unless momentum accelerates to the upside. Featured image from Dall-E, chart from TradingView

Solana (SOL) has remained under the radar in recent weeks, with market attention primarily centered on Bitcoin and Ethereum. While the broader crypto market digests recent volatility, SOL has been quietly consolidating just below key resistance. This silence, however, might not last much longer. Top analysts are starting to turn their focus back to Solana, suggesting that a powerful move could be brewing. Related Reading: Ethereum Bulls Defend Support – Key Indicator Hints At Short-Term Rally According to analyst Bluntz, the recent price action in SOL is showing promising signs. He notes that after sweeping the lows, Solana is now working on a reclaim of support — a classic bottoming pattern that often precedes a strong rebound. Although it’s still early days, this reaction could lay the foundation for a sharp rally if SOL manages to break back above the $160–$165 range. The sentiment echoes a broader belief among market watchers that Solana could become a major leader in the next leg of the altseason, especially if Ethereum breaks out from its current resistance. As bullish structure builds and technical indicators begin to align, the setup for SOL appears to be quietly strengthening, making it a key altcoin to watch in the coming weeks. Solana Setup For Breakout Remains Strong Solana (SOL) has been on a consolidation path over the past few weeks, struggling to reclaim the $180 resistance level. After peaking in early May, SOL has retraced steadily, now trading around the $150 range as it searches for renewed demand. This retracement aligns with a broader market pullback, as global tensions — especially surrounding US–China tariffs and rising interest rates — inject volatility and caution into financial markets. Despite the current slowdown, analysts remain optimistic about Solana’s medium-term outlook. Top trader Bluntz recently shared that SOL’s reaction after taking the lows is promising. According to him, the altcoin is now working on a reclaim of support, which could be the precursor to an aggressive rally. The key lies in whether Solana can push back above the $180 zone — an area of heavy supply that has repeatedly rejected bullish momentum. If SOL does manage to flip this level into support, the price structure suggests there’s ample room for a sharp breakout. The setup aligns well with rising calls for an altseason, particularly if Bitcoin dominance continues to roll over and Ethereum confirms a breakout above its multi-month resistance. In this scenario, Solana could emerge as one of the leading assets in the next crypto leg up, given its strong developer ecosystem, scalability, and growing DeFi sector. While current price action remains neutral to slightly bearish, a reclaim of $180 would likely flip sentiment quickly and attract fresh capital. As market focus shifts from major caps like BTC and ETH, SOL could be poised to capture the spotlight — and potentially lead the next altcoin rally. Related Reading: Solana Flashes Buy Signal – $159 Support Key For Rebound SOL Tests Key Support As Price Action Stalls Below $160 Solana (SOL) is currently trading at $154.47 after losing the $160 support, facing continued pressure following its rejection from the $180 resistance level earlier in May. The chart shows that SOL is now hovering just below the 34-day EMA and the 50-day SMA, indicating a breakdown in short-term bullish momentum. Volume has also decreased, signaling hesitation from both buyers and sellers amid broader market uncertainty. The 200-day moving average at $179.73 remains the major resistance level to reclaim in order to resume a bullish structure. Meanwhile, the zone between $150 and $156 is now acting as a critical demand area. A sustained close below $150 could open the door for deeper corrections, possibly toward the $140-$130 range, which aligns with previous consolidation levels in April. Related Reading: Ethereum Daily Gas Usage Hits New Highs – Real Demand Powers ETH Growth Despite the current weakness, the longer-term trend remains neutral-to-bullish as long as Solana holds above the 100-day SMA around $144.58. If SOL can consolidate and reclaim the $160–$165 region, it could trigger renewed upside momentum and challenge the $180 level once again. Analysts remain cautiously optimistic, with some expecting a rebound if market conditions stabilize and altseason momentum picks up in the coming weeks.

Solana is under pressure after failing to reclaim the $180 level, pulling back as part of a broader market correction. The recent rejection highlights a key resistance zone that bulls have been unable to overcome. As global markets experience increased volatility due to rising geopolitical tensions and ongoing trade disputes between major economies like the US and China, risk assets—including crypto—are consolidating or retracing. Related Reading: Ethereum Pulls Back To 20DMA After $2,700 Rejection: Testing Strength At Key Support Despite the pullback, top analyst Ali Martinez believes Solana could still be poised for a rebound. In a recent analysis, Martinez pointed out that as long as SOL holds above the $159 support level, the asset maintains a structurally bullish outlook. This zone now serves as a key threshold for the bulls to defend in the short term. If Solana finds enough demand at these levels, it could set the stage for a sharp recovery and renewed attempts at breaking above $180. For now, the market remains tense, with traders watching both macroeconomic developments and technical levels closely. SOL’s ability to hold critical support may determine whether it joins the next leg of a potential altcoin rally or slides into a deeper correction. Solana Consolidates Quietly While much of the market’s attention remains locked on Bitcoin and Ethereum, Solana has been quietly consolidating in a tight range below the $180 resistance. The lack of volatility in recent days may seem uneventful, but analysts warn that this calm could be the precursor to a sharp breakout. As the broader market digests macroeconomic uncertainty and prepares for a potential altseason, Solana’s technical setup suggests it may be one of the first major altcoins to move. Martinez recently shared an optimistic outlook for Solana, highlighting the importance of the $159 support level. As long as SOL holds this zone, the structure remains bullish. Martinez also noted that the TD Sequential indicator has flashed a buy signal on the chart, typically seen during the final stages of a retracement before a new impulse begins. This aligns with the current low-volume, sideways environment that often precedes large price expansions. If Solana breaks above the $180 resistance with strong momentum, the move could spark an aggressive rally toward previous highs. Given its strong fundamentals, vibrant ecosystem, and historical leadership during bullish phases, Solana is well-positioned to lead if the market transitions into a full-fledged altseason. Related Reading: Ethereum Daily Gas Usage Hits New Highs – Real Demand Powers ETH Growth Solana Tests Support As Market Corrects Solana (SOL) is currently trading around $153.49 after failing to reclaim the $180 resistance zone. The daily chart shows a sharp decline over the past few sessions, with price breaking below the 34-day EMA at $163.20. This move highlights growing bearish momentum and places the spotlight on the $150–$156 support range, where the 50-day and 100-day SMAs converge. Volume has ticked higher during this drop, suggesting stronger selling pressure as traders de-risk amid broader market uncertainty. The failure to hold above key moving averages weakens the short-term bullish outlook, though the structure hasn’t fully broken down yet. If SOL manages to stabilize above $150, this zone could act as a base for a rebound. However, continued weakness below this level may lead to a retest of lower support zones around $144 and $135. That said, RSI levels suggest Solana is approaching oversold territory on lower time frames, hinting that buyers could step in soon. Related Reading: Altseason Loading?

Solana is currently consolidating just below the $180 level after a strong rally, facing clear resistance as bulls attempt to maintain momentum. While the overall structure remains bullish, upward progress has stalled, and the market is entering a more cautious, tense phase. Buyers are still in control, but they’re struggling to push SOL decisively through this key barrier, keeping the price range-bound in the short term. Related Reading: Bitcoin UTXO Signal Approaches 99% Level – Bullish Signal Or Profit-Taking Setup? Adding to the intrigue, new data from Glassnode reveals that Solana is the only top 10 cryptocurrency (excluding stablecoins) with a negative funding rate. This could signal the early stages of short-side pressure building in the derivatives market. Negative funding suggests that traders are increasingly betting against the asset, even as spot price action holds relatively firm. This divergence between price consolidation and growing bearish positioning could act as a short-term catalyst if bulls regain momentum. Alternatively, it may hint at hesitation from traders who see limited upside in the immediate term. With sentiment on edge and key levels in play, Solana’s next move could set the tone for broader market behavior in the days ahead. Solana Faces Key Test After Rally Solana is at a critical inflection point after gaining more than 95% in value since April. The explosive rally has pushed SOL back to a major resistance zone, where previous supply has repeatedly capped upward momentum. Now, bulls must confirm the uptrend by pushing above this level and establishing a new higher range. A successful breakout here could solidify Solana’s bullish structure and set the stage for a move toward $200 and beyond. However, risks remain. While Solana has outperformed most top assets in recent weeks, some analysts warn that the broader crypto market may be approaching a short-term correction. With Bitcoin consolidating near its all-time highs and macroeconomic conditions tightening, any downside pressure could drag altcoins—including Solana—lower before continuation. Adding to the uncertainty, Glassnode shared a notable data point showing that Solana is currently the only top 10 crypto asset (excluding stablecoins) with a negative funding rate. At -0.0002%, it’s a small shift, but one that may signal the early stages of bearish positioning among futures traders. Negative funding means that short sellers are paying to hold their positions, potentially indicating growing skepticism about short-term upside. This divergence between bullish spot performance and subtle bearish sentiment in derivatives could set up a high-stakes move. If bulls can absorb the pressure and flip resistance into support, Solana could enter a fresh price discovery phase. But if selling intensifies and funding remains negative, a deeper pullback may be on the horizon. For now, SOL is at a key decision point—and the next move could set the tone for the weeks ahead. Related Reading: Solana Bulls Watch The $190 Level – ATHs Back In Sight? SOL Approaches Resistance As Weekly Structure Turns Bullish Solana (SOL) is currently trading at $175.68 on the weekly chart, consolidating just below the $180 resistance zone. After a strong rebound from April’s lows near $90, SOL has gained over 95% and is now approaching a critical level that has historically acted as a supply zone. The recent bullish momentum is notable, with three consecutive green weekly candles and price now trading above the 34-week EMA at $164.82—a level that previously capped upside attempts. The 50-week SMA at $169.48 has also been reclaimed, reinforcing the strength of the current move. Volume remains steady, suggesting buyer conviction is still intact as SOL pushes into this resistance zone. The next key test lies in whether bulls can break and close above the $180–$185 area, confirming a structural breakout and opening the door for a potential retest of the $200–$220 range. Related Reading: Bitcoin Liquidity Builds At $105K Level – Sweep Before New Highs? Failure to reclaim this zone could lead to short-term consolidation or a mild pullback toward the 34 EMA or 50 SMA.

If broader market conditions remain stable, Solana looks poised to attempt a breakout in the coming weeks. Featured image from Dall-E, chart from TradingView

Solana is trading at critical levels after weeks of strong price action and tight consolidation around current prices. Following an impressive 80% rally from its April lows, SOL is now testing a key horizontal resistance zone that could decide whether the uptrend continues or stalls in the short term. The recent consolidation has allowed the market to cool off while keeping the bullish structure intact—an encouraging sign for traders watching for a continuation move. Related Reading: Bitcoin Liquidity Builds At $105K Level – Sweep Before New Highs? Top analyst Jelle shared a technical analysis highlighting that Solana is now retesting a significant horizontal level that previously acted as resistance. A successful flip of this level into support could provide the momentum needed to push toward new local highs and potentially open the door to a full recovery rally. While overall market sentiment remains cautious amid broader macro uncertainty, Solana’s recent strength stands out among altcoins. Its ability to hold above key support during periods of volatility has positioned it as one of the better-performing assets in the current market cycle. If bulls maintain control and volume returns on the next breakout attempt, Solana could be gearing up for another leg higher in the days ahead. Solana Consolidates As Market Eyes Bullish Expansion Solana is currently consolidating just below a critical resistance level—the last major barrier before a potential breakout toward the weekly range highs. After gaining over 80% since its April lows, SOL is showing remarkable strength compared to most altcoins. However, the broader market remains on edge, as Bitcoin continues to trade just below its all-time highs, leaving investors uncertain about the potential for a correction. Despite this uncertainty, momentum across the crypto market suggests that the recent rally may be more than just a short-term bounce. Many analysts believe this could be the beginning of a larger bullish phase, one that carries significant upside if key resistance levels are cleared. Solana’s current consolidation is taking place directly under a major technical ceiling—if bulls can reclaim this zone, the path toward much higher prices opens quickly. Jelle echoed this view in a recent post, highlighting the importance of the $190 level. According to his analysis, “Above $190, all bets are off.” Reclaiming that resistance would likely confirm a breakout and shift sentiment decisively in favor of the bulls. It would also place Solana back on track to retest its all-time highs. For now, SOL is holding its ground while the market waits for Bitcoin’s next move. If BTC confirms strength and Solana breaks above $190, it could mark the beginning of a new wave of bullish price action, not just for SOL, but for the broader altcoin market as well. The coming days may be pivotal. Related Reading: Bitcoin Profit-Taking Remains Healthy – Data Shows No Signs Of Overheating Technical Details: Price Testing Key Moving Average Solana (SOL) is trading at $177.30, consolidating just below a key resistance level around $181, marked by the 200-day SMA. The daily chart shows that after a strong impulse rally from the April lows, SOL has entered a tight consolidation phase, forming a potential base for the next leg higher. The 34 EMA ($162.95), along with the 50 and 100 SMAs, are all trending upward and stacked in bullish alignment below the price, supporting the overall bullish structure. This indicates that the recent move is supported by strong trend momentum and healthy pullback dynamics. Volume has decreased slightly during the consolidation, which is typical during a pause before a potential breakout. However, the 200-day SMA continues to act as resistance, capping price advances multiple times over the last few days. A clean break and daily close above $181 could confirm the continuation of the uptrend and open the path toward the $200–$220 range, which aligns with the weekly range highs.

Solana (SOL) is once again in the spotlight, as a market analyst has forecasted a massive rally that could propel the token’s price to new All-Time Highs (ATHs) by late 2025. The prediction suggests a staggering 140% surge from current levels toward a bold price target of $420 and beyond. Solana Prepares For Parabolic Move Toward $420 A fresh chart analysis shared by a TradingView crypto analyst, Master Ananda, reports that Solana has completed a textbook rounded bottom pattern, indicating a bullish reversal to new ATHs. Notably, the analyst forecasts that SOL is gearing up for a parabolic surge to $420, emphasizing that this bullish projection is not the cryptocurrency’s final target.  Related Reading: Analyst Tells Investors To Be Patient As Solana Price Hits Resistance The analysis, as stated earlier, is based on the formation of a rounded bottom pattern, which has been developing since early 2025. This pattern has now transitioned into a breakout structure, with the Solana price reportedly holding firm above the $160 support line — a level considered the baseline of the rounded bottom and a psychological stronghold for the market.  Notably, Solana faced a strong rejection at a key resistance area on May 23. However, despite the pullback, Master Ananda emphasized that the price action remains resilient, suggesting that bullish momentum is still intact and the dip has not altered the altcoin’s positive long-term outlook in the months ahead.  In addition, Solana also dropped to a low on May 19, marked by the blue line on the price chart. Despite this, the analyst strongly asserts that there is “absolutely no bearish action” on the current chart.  As long as the $160 level holds, the current trend is likely to accelerate toward higher Fibonacci resistance levels, culminating in the 1.618 extension at around $419.78. This bullish target would represent approximately 140% growth from the current price of around $178 and would place Solana at a new all-time high.  Interestingly, Master Ananda noted that even if Solana falls below the key support level, it would be of little concern. Such a move would likely signal a market shakeout or a bear trap rather than a pullback or an invalidation of Solana’s bullish thesis. This view stems from the belief that SOL’s bullish bias has already been confirmed, positioning the market for potential strong growth over the long term.  The key point of Master Ananda’s analysis is that Solana’s rise is expected to be sudden and powerful, leaving those on the sidelines regretting missed opportunities. As the market matures and liquidity improves following Bitcoin’s steady rise, the sharp upside potential for Solana could unfold much quicker than anticipated.  Macro Catalysts Align For Massive Crypto Growth While explaining his bullish case for Solana, Master Ananda revealed that changes in macroeconomic factors could become a catalyst for astonishing growth in the crypto market. With the US Federal Reserve (FED) expected to initiate interest rate cuts in the coming months, the broader risk-on environment is set to benefit the crypto sector significantly. Related Reading: Solana Rebound To $900 Is Coming, But This Resistance Stands In The Way The analyst suggests that Solana’s current price levels, while not at absolute lows, still represent a significant buy zone. Master Ananda revealed that Solana’s potential is substantial, and as the next bull cycle gains momentum, $300 will no longer be seen as expensive. Before this happens, Master Ananda has stated that investors “should be fully invested and buy like it’s the end of the world”. Featured image from Adobe Stock, chart from Tradingview.com

Solana (SOL) is beginning to show signs of renewed strength as technical indicators hint at a potential breakout. On the weekly chart, the MACD is curling up and has recently crossed above the signal line, a bullish signal that often precedes major price movements. With momentum slowly building, traders are now watching closely to see if this shift marks the beginning of a larger rally. Momentum Builds For A Possible Solana Breakout In a recent X post, market analyst Willjayducks drew attention to a significant bearish divergence that unfolded on the Solana weekly chart. He pointed out that as the price surged into its blow-off top, the RSI and MACD indicators showed weakening momentum. This divergence between price action and momentum indicators is a classic technical pattern that typically precedes sharp corrections. Related Reading: Solana Flips Bullish: Price Climbs Above Ichimoku Cloud With Strong Momentum Following this setup, Solana experienced a steep decline, shedding approximately 67% of its value in just 84 days. According to Willjayducks, this dramatic drop suggests the bearish divergence has “arguably played out,” implying that the correction phase may be nearing its end.  He further elaborated that the MACD is now curling upward and has recently crossed above the signal line. This crossover suggests that the recent downward pressure may be easing, setting the stage for a potential recovery. According to his analysis, if SOL can gather enough strength and sustain its current upward momentum, the MACD line could eventually cross above the zero line, a more definitive bullish signal that typically confirms a shift in trend. Should this scenario unfold, the analyst believes Solana may be poised to push toward new highs, reigniting interest among traders and investors. However, he also noted a word of caution: if or when this bullish breakout occurs, he’ll be closely monitoring the chart for any emerging signs of bearish divergence, which could once again hint at an overheated market. Bearish Outcome Still On The Table In the climax, the analyst mentioned that there is still a chance things just fizzle out here and continue into a bear trend. Despite recent bullish signals and technical improvements, he cautioned that the current momentum might not be strong enough to sustain a full reversal.  Related Reading: Solana Short-Term Indicator Signals Potential Risk – Reversal Or Pause?

Solana is trading at a critical level as the broader crypto market consolidates below key resistance zones. After an impressive 90% surge since early April, SOL has experienced a modest pullback, sparking speculation that this may be the final dip before a significant move higher. While many assets are struggling to maintain momentum, Solana has shown remarkable strength and resilience, bolstering bullish expectations. Related Reading: Dogecoin Momentum Fades – Analyst Expects $0.213 Retest Top analyst Cas Abbe shared a technical view suggesting that the long-term bullish structure for Solana remains firmly intact. According to Abbe, last month’s retest of the multi-year trendline marked a pivotal moment for the asset, reinforcing support and resetting sentiment for a potential continuation. Since the bounce from that level, SOL has continued to climb steadily, and many now believe that Solana is gearing up for another leg up. With fundamentals improving and historical patterns pointing to renewed upside, the market is watching closely. A successful reclaim of nearby resistance levels could be the trigger that drives Solana back toward its previous all-time high—and potentially beyond. For now, SOL holders are eyeing this consolidation phase as the calm before the storm. Solana Holds Critical Support As Market Eyes Bullish Continuation Solana is testing a crucial demand zone around the $165 level, attempting to establish a foundation for its next major move. This range has become a key battleground between bulls and bears, especially as broader market sentiment is shaped by Bitcoin’s struggle to push past its all-time high. With BTC stalling just below $109K, uncertainty clouds the outlook for many altcoins, including SOL. However, Solana continues to show signs of relative strength. Despite recent pullbacks, the overall trend for Solana remains bullish. According to Abbe, the asset’s multi-year uptrend remains intact. Last month, Solana successfully retested its long-term trendline, which Abbe believes marked the bottom of the recent correction. Since that bounce, SOL has surged over 50%, demonstrating strong investor confidence and solid underlying momentum. Abbe maintains that the $290 high seen earlier was not the final peak for Solana, projecting a new all-time high sometime in 2025. His bullish thesis is supported by improving fundamentals across the Solana ecosystem, including rising developer activity, growing DeFi participation, and increasing on-chain usage.

The chart shows SOL climbing over 90% since its April low, confirming bullish momentum and renewed interest across the market. However, the price is now stalling just below the 200-day SMA at $181.03, which is acting as dynamic resistance. The key support lies near the 200-day EMA at $162.55. As long as SOL holds this level, the short-term structure remains bullish. A clean break above the $181 level would open the door for a move toward the psychological $200 mark and potentially higher. But if bears regain control and price breaks below $160, the uptrend could be in jeopardy. Related Reading: Chainlink Struggles At Key Resistance Level – $10 Support Back In Focus Volume has decreased slightly since the early May breakout, hinting at possible exhaustion or consolidation before another leg.

According to GemXBT on an X post, the Solana chart shows a promising recovery after a recent downtrend, with the price bouncing off a key support level around $168. This price action suggests that SOL has found a solid foundation at this support zone. Support levels like this are important in technical analysis, as they indicate areas where buying interest may be strong enough to halt a decline. A sustained bounce from this level could attract more buyers, fueling further upward momentum and setting the groundwork for a stronger rally in the coming days.  Solana Rebound Sparks Hope For A Renewed Rally GemXBT has observed that SOL is currently trading above the 5-day and 10-day moving averages, which is a key indicator of bullish price action. When an asset’s price remains above these moving averages, it suggests that the market sentiment is positive and that the asset could continue to trend upward.  Related Reading: Solana Price Rally Targets $360—But This Support Must Hold Additionally, a bullish crossover in the MACD has been noted, which further confirms upward momentum. The MACD crossover occurs when the MACD line crosses above the signal line. This is a widely recognized technical signal that suggests the market may continue to favor the bulls, supporting the case for more gains in SOL’s price. At the same time, the RSI is approaching neutral levels, suggesting that there is still room for movement in either direction and that the indicator is not yet in overbought or oversold territory. This neutral reading gives Solana the chance to build on its renewed bullish momentum without facing immediate resistance from overbought conditions. However, the key resistance for SOL is near the $180 level, which could present a hurdle for the ongoing rally. This price point will likely be an area where sellers may re-enter the market, potentially halting or slowing down the upward performance. A Broadening Wedge On The SOL’s 4-Hour Chart Whales_Crypto_Trading recently shared an insightful analysis on X, noting that Solana is approaching a key breakout point from a broadening wedge formation on the 4-hour chart. This chart pattern, characterized by fluctuating highs and lows, suggests that the market is experiencing increased volatility and that a decisive price movement is imminent.  Related Reading: Solana (SOL) Over $150 — More Upside on The Horizon? The broadening wedge typically precedes a breakout, and Whales_Crypto_Trading highlights that the likelihood of an upward breakout is growing. If the price breaks above the upper boundary of the wedge, it could signal the start of a strong rally. When this happens, the analyst suggests that it might trigger a significant uptrend, pushing the price toward key resistance levels at $215, $228, $243, and $265. These levels represent crucial targets where the price may face challenges, but a successful breach of these zones would pave the way for further upward movement.

Solana (SOL) is trading around key levels after reaching a local high of $184, struggling to hold support above the $170 zone. This price region is shaping up to be a pivotal battleground, as bulls aim to extend the rally while some analysts warn of an incoming retracement. Optimism remains strong across the market, with altcoins gaining momentum alongside Bitcoin and Ethereum. However, conflicting views persist, with several traders cautioning that Solana may be overheated in the short term following its recent surge. Related Reading: $1.2B In Ethereum Withdrawn From CEXs – Strong Accumulation Signal Supporting the bullish narrative, new data from Glassnode shows that Solana may be undergoing a trend reversal. After months of realized cap outflows, SOL’s 30-day capital inflows have turned positive, currently growing at a steady rate of 4–5%, a pace similar to that of XRP. This uptick in capital inflow indicates renewed demand entering the ecosystem, hinting that investors may be positioning for further upside. As the broader crypto market heats up, Solana’s ability to stay above the $170 level will be crucial in determining short-term direction. A confirmed hold could pave the way for a push toward new highs, while a breakdown might trigger a deeper retrace. Renewed Demand And Key Resistance Define Next Move Solana is currently trading above a critical demand zone, showing strength as it holds firmly above the $170 level. However, to confirm the continuation of a sustained bullish rally, SOL must break and close decisively above the $185 resistance level. This region has acted as a strong ceiling in recent price action, and reclaiming it would likely unlock the momentum needed for further gains. The current rally across the broader crypto market, including Bitcoin and Ethereum, has fueled optimism that a larger bullish phase may be underway. For Solana, this could mark the start of a powerful trend reversal after months of volatility and uncertainty. Importantly, on-chain data supports this bullish case. According to Glassnode, Solana has reversed its negative realized cap flows, with its 30-day capital inflows now back in positive territory. These inflows are growing at a rate of approximately 4–5%, comparable to what is currently being observed in XRP. This shift signals a return of investor confidence and renewed demand within the Solana ecosystem. Such metrics are critical, as they reflect actual capital commitments rather than just speculative sentiment. If momentum continues and SOL reclaims the $185 level, it could trigger an aggressive breakout and lead the altcoin sector higher. The next few days will be crucial for Solana. Holding above support while attempting to break resistance could define the structure of the next major move. A successful push higher would support the idea that Solana is not only recovering but potentially leading the next phase of altcoin expansion. Traders and investors alike are watching closely as this key test unfolds.

As shown on the chart, the price briefly pushed above both the 200-day EMA ($162.21) and SMA ($181.16), two key technical indicators closely watched by traders. This move signaled strength but was quickly met with selling pressure just below a significant resistance zone near the $185 level — the same region where multiple failed attempts have occurred in the past. Despite the recent 3.5% daily drop, the price action remains bullish as long as SOL holds above the 200EMA. The higher low structure remains intact, and the recent retrace could be viewed as a healthy consolidation if bulls defend this range. A sustained move above the 200SMA at $181.16 would likely trigger a fresh wave of bullish momentum and open the door for a push toward the $200-$220 area. Related Reading: XRP Open Interest Surges 41% As Speculation Grows – Over $1B Added In Just One Week Volume remains elevated, suggesting active participation, though a drop in buying interest may signal caution.

Solana’s native token is extending an impressive May run that has already carried the market-cap leader among non-EVM smart-contract platforms from $146 at the end of April to as high as $18” in Wednesday trading, the highest daily close recorded since mid-February. Against that backdrop, independent analyst More Crypto Online (MCO) released a fresh video update outlining why the move is technically “very full but not necessarily overextended or overstretched.” In the clip, MCO reiterates that the advance from the 30 April swing low traces out “a five-wave pattern” and stresses that, because “there was no confirmed top, one more high was still likely especially as long as this micro-support area held.” The micro zone he referenced earlier in the week lay between $159.67 and $168.23, a range Solana tested briefly before powering higher. Solana Could Surge To $360 Zooming in, the channel’s Elliott-wave count now shows five clean waves even on what MCO calls “the nano level,” a configuration that, in classical wave theory, typically finishes either an impulsive first wave or the terminating leg of a diagonal. “If it’s a five-wave move, it can be a so-called A-wave,” the analyst explains, which would “result in a B-wave, ideally a higher low, and then a C-wave up.” The alternative—and MCO’s preferred scenario—treats the structure as wave 1 of a much larger impulse that could ultimately “easily get to $360 or higher.” Related Reading: Solana Network Activity Grows As 11M Wallets Now Hold 0.1 SOL Or More – Analyst For traders trying to calibrate risk in the near term, MCO isolates two numbers that matter most. On the upside he names $191.25 as “the next upside level to watch,” describing it as the 61.8 percent extension of waves 1 and 3—a textbook Fibonacci target for a fifth wave. On the downside he warns that “it takes a break below $172, which is the last swing low, to indicate that a price top has formed in wave 1.” In a follow-up post on X he put it even more succinctly: “5th wave to the upside is confirmed. $191.25 is the next upside level to watch … it takes a break below $172 … to indicate that a price top has formed.” Related Reading: Solana Rallies Into Pivotal Zone – $180 Level Could Define Next Move A clean, high-volume break of $191.25 would confirm that the immediate corrective risk has been deferred; a decisive daily close beneath $172 would instead signal that the first leg of the new advance has exhausted itself and that a retracement toward the upper-$160s or even the mid-$150s is underway. As ever, traders should remember that Elliott-wave projections are probabilistic rather than predictive. With volatility historically elevated in Solana, position sizing—alongside a clear plan for the two technical levels singled out in today’s analysis—remains the first line of defence. At press time, SOL traded at $180. Featured image created with DALL.E, chart from TradingView.com

Solana (SOL) has officially broken above the Ichimoku Cloud on the daily chart, a key technical signal that often marks the beginning of a bullish trend reversal. After weeks of sideways movement and uncertainty, this decisive breakout suggests that momentum is finally shifting in favor of the bulls. While confirmation from volume and follow-through price action is still needed, the technical outlook is becoming increasingly optimistic. Solana Ichimoku Breakout And Momentum Check Solana’s breakout above the Ichimoku Cloud is more than just a technical checkpoint; it marks a critical shift in its market structure and trader sentiment. This breakout represents a move from uncertainty to confidence, as buyers begin to gain the upper hand after a period of consolidation and hesitation. Related Reading: Solana At A Crossroads: Consolidation Before The Next Major Surge? So far, momentum indicators are leaning bullish, providing early signs that Solana may be entering a new upward phase. One of the most notable signals comes from the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD), which has recently made a positive crossover. Not only has the MACD line crossed above the signal line, but the two lines have now moved above the zero line. This double confirmation strengthens the signal significantly. When the MACD and signal lines rise above zero, it typically marks the transition from bearish to bullish territory, indicating that momentum is not just shifting but accelerating in favor of the bulls. However, a clear uptick in volume is essential for SOL to sustain and build on this breakout. Volume is what turns a breakout into a trend, and without it, upward momentum can quickly stall. If volume starts to pick up alongside continued price strength, it could ignite the next leg up, potentially pushing Solana toward key resistance levels. Key Levels To Watch Now As Solana begins to show signs of a bullish reversal, identifying and monitoring key price levels becomes essential for both short-term and long-term investors. These levels act as decision points where price action is likely to react, facing resistance or finding support. Related Reading: Solana Network Activity Grows As 11M Wallets Now Hold 0.1 SOL Or More – Analyst On the upside, it can be observed that the immediate resistance of $164 has been cleared, with SOL now attempting a move toward the $211 resistance level. A clean breakout above this area, especially backed by strong volume, would open the door for a rally toward the $240 mark. Beyond that, $260 remains a major resistance to watch, marking a key round number and prior rejection area. On the downside, $164 now serves as the nearest support following the recent breakout above the Ichimoku Cloud. Holding above this level is crucial to maintain the current bullish structure. A breakdown below it could drag Solana back to the $148–$118 support range, where buyers previously stepped in. Featured image from Adobe Stock, chart from Tradingview.com

Just like the rest of the market, the Solana price had previously hit a roadblock as resistance mounted. This stopped its recovery dead in its tracks before hitting the $180 level, and triggering a downward spiral. However, a crypto analyst has cautioned investors against panicking during this time, explaining that this is the time to be patient. Wait For More Defined Trends In a TradingView post, crypto analyst SiDec explained the current situation surrounding the Solana price, warning investors to not be in a hurry to enter into the coin. They points out that at this level, where the Solana price has hit resistance, it presents a lot of risk for those rushing to get into the market. Related Reading: Why The US-China 90-Day Tariff Slash Can Push Bitcoin Price Above $110,000 As explained, $175-$183 are historical resistance zones for the altcoin, so it is no surprise that investors are choosing these levels to exit after the recent market dump. Additionally, smart money is also looking for liquidity at these levels, and the Solana price is prone to false breakouts due to this development. When it comes to trading Solana, the crypto analyst explains that investors must wait for one of two things to happen. Either there is a pullback in the Solana price and it falls toward a “confluence-rich support zone” or wait for a clean breakout above the resistance at $183, as well as a retest and confirmation. With the current trend, the analyst identified the two key zones for the Solana price now. The first lies at $179.85, which was recently tested, and then $180.52, which is yet to be tested. The latter, at $180.52, holds the key as a break above this level would be the confirmation needed for a strong bullish continuation. Solana Price Completes Elliot Wave Count Another interesting development for the Solana price that the crypto analyst points out is the fact that the altcoin has completed a 5-wave sequence. The Elliot Wave Theory comes in only five waves and with the completion, it could mean that the bull rally is over for the Solana price. The next thing that could happen from here is that the price continues to correct, before confirmation leads to a bullish continuation. Related Reading: Bitcoin Price Targets $110,000 All-Time High After Consolidation Trend Ends The formation of the Fib Speed Fan pattern, as pointed out by the analyst, also suggests that the price could correct further from here. “The 0.618 Fib Speed Fan — drawn from the all-time high at $295.83 to the swing low at $95.26 — aligns perfectly with this resistance zone, adding more weight to the idea of a potential rejection or pause,” the analyst wrote. Given these developments, the crypto analyst has preferred possible entry points for long ad short positions. For bulls going long, the $165.42-$164.25 level could offer opportunity. While for short traders, the best setup shows a reversal play and entry at $200. Featured image from Dall.E, Chart from TradingView.com

Solana has rallied more than 22% since last Thursday, riding the wave of renewed bullish momentum across the broader crypto market. As Bitcoin pushes toward all-time highs and Ethereum breaks key resistance levels, Solana has followed suit with impressive strength. The price surged to a local high of $181 before encountering resistance, where it now consolidates just below that mark, searching for support to fuel the next leg higher. Related Reading: Ethereum Hits Major Level After Biggest Weekly Candle In Years – What Comes Next? While price action cools at a pivotal level, on-chain data shows significant growth in Solana’s user base. According to Glassnode, the number of wallets holding 0.1 SOL or more has surged to 11.04 million in the past two weeks. This rapid increase in smallholder wallets points to a rising wave of adoption and network participation, particularly as interest in altcoins intensifies. Solana’s consolidation just under $181 may act as a healthy pause before a continuation if bullish momentum persists. With the market heating up and retail interest returning, the current price structure could offer the foundation for a strong breakout in the coming sessions. The combination of price performance and rising user engagement suggests Solana may be positioning for a larger role in the next phase of the bull cycle. Solana Holds Key Support As Wallet Growth Signals Optimism Solana is now facing a crucial test as it consolidates just below the $181 resistance zone. After a sharp 22% rally over the past week, bulls must defend current levels to validate the uptrend and sustain momentum. Holding above the $170–$175 support range would confirm strength and could pave the way for a renewed push toward the $200 level. However, the path forward isn’t without risk. The broader macroeconomic environment remains fragile, with persistent fears of a global slowdown and continued uncertainty around inflation and interest rate policy. Despite these headwinds, the crypto market is staging a powerful recovery, and Solana is among the top performers. This rally may be more than just a short-term bounce—it could mark the early stages of a larger bullish phase with significant upside potential. Investor sentiment is improving, and so is user engagement across key ecosystems. Top analyst Ali Martinez shared compelling on-chain data that reinforces this perspective. According to Glassnode, the number of wallets holding 0.1 SOL or more has surged to 11.04 million over the last two weeks. This rapid growth in smaller holders suggests growing retail interest and a widening user base—critical indicators for long-term strength. If bulls can maintain control at current levels and macro conditions don’t worsen, Solana could be poised for a major move. The combination of technical momentum and on-chain engagement provides a strong foundation for the next leg higher. All eyes are now on whether the $181 resistance breaks—or if Solana needs more time to build strength before the next phase of the rally begins. Related Reading: Ethereum Recovery Gains Strength: Massive Comeback Above Key Support Solana Faces Resistance As Price Pulls Back To Retest Support Solana (SOL) is consolidating just below the $181 level after a strong 22% rally from last week. As shown in the chart, price action surged above both the 200-day EMA ($161.88) and 200-day SMA ($181.11), signaling renewed bullish momentum. However, the current pullback from $180 to around $173.48 shows that the $181 level is acting as a key resistance, which has previously served as a rejection zone multiple times in the past. Volume remains healthy, and the recent move shows strong market participation, but bulls now need to hold the $170–$172 range to maintain control. A successful retest of this area as support could set the stage for a breakout above $181. Failing to hold above this zone, however, could trigger a correction back to the $160–$165 region, near the 200 EMA.

Until then, traders will closely watch the $181 level for a decisive breakout or rejection. Featured image from Dall-E, chart from TradingView

In an interview that spanned everything from macro-economics to meme-coin mania, veteran trader and Asymmetric founder Joe McCann laid out a forceful—but narrowly targeted—thesis: Bitcoin’s institutional flows can propel it to the high six-figure range, Solana is “the fastest horse” toward a mid-three-digit print, and Ethereum’s investment case is increasingly threadbare. Bitcoin To $400,000 McCann began by striking at one of crypto’s longest-lived touchstones. “It’s become clear to anyone who follows crypto that the four-year cycle is effectively dead,” he told host Scott Melker, arguing that traditional patterns of post-halving rotation have been overwhelmed by spot-ETF inflows and by what he calls an unprecedented “headline-driven market.” Those flows, he said, are only beginning. Sovereign wealth funds, pensions, and corporations are “hoarding Bitcoin the way they once hoarded gold,” but unlike bullion, the supply cap is immutable. With uncertainty indices at all-time highs and US trade policy setting the tempo of risk assets, McCann sees a probabilistic path toward enormous upside once “local maxima” on tariffs are understood. Related Reading: Bitcoin 6-Month Flight Plan To $188,000, Here’s The Roadmap “If Trump does deregulation, if he chills out on tariff policy, you could see Bitcoin actually rip two, three, four-hundred thousand dollars. It really is just a number. It’s more about the flows.” Pressed for timing, the CEO of Asymmetric would not anchor to a specific date, but he did outline the mechanics: reflexive price action in a thinly supplied market. Bitcoin, still a “fraction of the market cap of gold,” now trades in an environment where gold’s 40% year-to-date rally has revived the digital-gold narrative. A break of the Bitcoin-gold cross to the upside could lure capital away from bullion “simply because it’s easier to transport and censorship-resistant.” The implication is that a decisive break above the psychological $100,000 could accelerate quickly to the headline figure of $400,000 on ETF demand alone—particularly if the US administration moves ahead with initiatives such asUS President Donald Trump Strategic Bitcoin Reserve buys in a budget neutral way or Senator Cynthia Lummis’s proposal.

If Bitcoin is McCann’s 70% core position, Solana is his high-conviction satellite. He credits the network’s throughput during last month’s Trump-branded meme-coin launch—“the chain did not suffer; it hummed right along”—as a proof-of-scale moment. Wallet abstractions such as Moonshot, and the migration of stable-coin flows from Ethereum, have in his view removed the UX friction that capped the last cycle. “When the most popular person on the planet launches a meme-coin on Solana, what does that tell you? We have infrastructure ready for mass adoption.” Related Reading: Sovereigns Are Buying Billions Of Bitcoin, Says Anthony Scaramucci With spot-Solana ETFs already live in Canada and US filings advancing, he projects that “given the fundamentals coupled with ETF flows… Solana’s got to be at least $420,” a figure he reiterated more than once. By contrast, McCann’s hedge-fund book carries only one structural short: ETH. He offered a blunt rationale: once-innovative technology, but an asset now “being cannibalized by its own L2s.” With gas averaging one cent, fee revenue is insufficient to reward holders, and institutional channels prefer tokens that either accrue protocol cash-flow or sit inside ETF wrappers—criteria he does not see Ethereum satisfying. “The asset is not worth owning,” he concluded. “Anytime Ethereum rips, usually take profits across the board on everything.” McCann doubts the return of the indiscriminate “alt-season” that characterised prior tops. Liquidity, he argued, has bifurcated into Bitcoin ETFs on one end and high-velocity meme-coin venues such as Pump.Fun on the other. Tokens in between must now defend themselves with “real protocol revenue, not just governance.” If they do, he foresees a coming wave of dividend-style crypto ETFs aimed at yield-hungry boomers; if they don’t, “most of them will trade to zero.” At press time, BTC traded at $104,528.

Solana is gaining momentum once again, with price action pushing above the $175 level for the first time in weeks. The move comes as crypto markets roar back to life, fueled by Bitcoin’s push above $100K and Ethereum’s explosive rally past $2,500. Solana has surged more than 20% in the past week alone, signaling strong demand and a renewed bullish outlook from traders and investors alike. Related Reading: XRP Whales Are Back – 880 Million Tokens Accumulated This Month Top analyst Big Cheds shared a technical analysis revealing that Solana is now making a strong advance into a key spot—the underside of the daily 200 moving average (DMA). The asset is also approaching a lower high around the $180 mark, which previously acted as resistance during the last failed breakout attempt. Cheds notes that reclaiming this zone would be a significant win for bulls, potentially triggering a sharp continuation toward new highs. Market sentiment is turning optimistic across the board, and Solana’s technical setup reflects that shift. As price approaches the 200DMA, all eyes are on whether SOL can hold this momentum and break through key levels to join the broader market rally. The coming days will be crucial for confirming a full trend reversal. Solana Approaches Pivotal Level As Bulls Eye Breakout Solana is showing renewed strength after a clean breakout above the $160 resistance zone, a level that had capped price action for several weeks. The surge has brought SOL into a critical region that could act as a pivot point—either igniting a fresh bullish rally or marking a temporary top before a retrace. As global tensions between the US and China and broader macroeconomic uncertainties linger, the crypto market remains exposed to sudden sentiment shifts. However, recent price action in Solana, along with Bitcoin and Ethereum, suggests that investors are increasingly optimistic about a continued market recovery. Solana’s current structure reflects that optimism. The asset is now testing the underside of its daily 200 moving average, a level often viewed by traders as a trend-defining indicator. A successful push above this moving average would add further confidence to the bullish thesis. At the same time, Solana is approaching a lower high near the $180 zone, where the price was previously rejected in March. Cheds points to this convergence as a crucial area: a breakout here could mark the beginning of a larger reversal pattern. Still, risks remain. A rejection at the $180 level could reinforce resistance and trigger a pullback toward the $160 support, especially if macro conditions worsen or profit-taking sets in. For now, however, bulls appear to be in control, and the technical landscape supports a potential continuation—if momentum holds. Related Reading: Bitcoin 4H Chart Shows Bullish Consolidation – Classic Continuation? Technical Levels: Price Action Shows Strength Solana (SOL) is exhibiting strong momentum as it trades at $176.41, advancing toward a crucial resistance area around the $180 level. The daily chart shows that SOL has surged rapidly from April lows, breaking above both the 200-day EMA ($161.67) and approaching the 200-day SMA ($181.10), a key area that could determine the next major trend. This zone acted as support and resistance multiple times in the past, particularly during Q4 2024 and early 2025. Now, as price returns to this range, it becomes a potential pivot point. If bulls can sustain pressure and close above $181.10 with volume confirmation, it may trigger a continuation toward $200 and possibly retest February highs above $260. However, failure to break above this range could prompt a rejection and consolidation below the 200 SMA. Related Reading: Bitcoin Whale Entry Prices Diverge Sharply – Confidence Builds At Higher Levels Volume has picked up significantly over the last few days, indicating rising interest and participation from traders.

Solana is still facing a lot of resistance and it seems that the $200 target is getting harder to reach. This has been made harder by the bearish market winds, as well as declining participation from investors in online activities. As such, the Solana price is still struggling to stay above $150. However, given that there is starting to be a turn in the market sentiment toward the positive, the Solana price could be headed for a quick rebound. This is echoed by crypto analysts who have predicted that the altcoin still has room to run and one in particular suggests that new all-time highs are even possible. Why The Solana Price Is Turning Bullish Crypto analyst TradingShot has explained why the Solana price has been turning bullish recently. In a recent analysis, they explain that the rebound at the beginning of April has shown strength in the digital asset. This came as Solana bounced off the 1-Week MA200 at the start of last month, and this bullish start carried on to the end of the month.

This level is now the major point to break if Solana is to continue its bullish run in the month of May. The interesting thing about this level, as the crypto analyst explains, is that if the SOL price is able to surmount it, then it is expected to turn into support for the altcoin. Support at $170 would be quite bullish for the Solana price, serving as a possible bounce off point toward $200 once again. Targets From Here As stated above, the first thing is for the Solana price to actually test and break the blue trend line at $170. If this is successful and the bottom is in, then the next big target from here is the $350 level. The crypto analyst explains that this $350 target is the higher high of the wedge.

In a recent update on X, analyst GemXBT highlighted that Solana (SOL) is moving within a consolidation phase, with the price hovering near the $147 level. The pattern indicates that SOL is coiling up, potentially preparing for a significant move once a breakout occurs. This period of sideways trading isn’t without significance. Historically, such consolidation phases can act as a prelude to sharp breakouts or breakdowns. Traders are now closely watching for volume spikes or candlestick signals that could hint at the next major trend. Current Market Context: Why Solana Consolidation Matters GemXBT emphasized that key support lies below the current price, around the $146 level, which has acted as a crucial buffer, preventing further declines and helping to maintain short-term stability. On the upside, immediate resistance is forming near $150, a level that has previously halted bullish advances. This resistance zone is now being closely monitored, as a breakout above it could trigger a stronger upward push.

He noted that the Relative Strength Index (RSI) continues to hover in the neutral zone, reflecting the prevailing market indecision.  This midpoint reading indicates that neither bullish nor bearish momentum is dominant at the moment, which aligns with Solana’s sideways price movement. The lack of an overbought or oversold signal suggests that a breakout in either direction is still on the table, making the coming sessions particularly crucial for confirming the next trend. In addition, GemXBT highlighted that the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) has recently formed a minor bearish crossover, which could be an early warning sign of building downward pressure. Although the signal isn’t strong enough to confirm a trend reversal yet, it does raise concerns, especially if the $147 support level fails to hold.  The Battle Between Bulls And Bears Based on GemXBT analysis, as Solana continues to consolidate between the $146 and $150 range, the market is at a crucial indecision point. After breaking out of the zone between $146 and $150, the next resistance to watch is the $164 level. If buyers are able to push the price past this barrier, it could pave the way for a rally toward the $211 level and beyond, marking a significant shift in momentum and market sentiment.

In that case, lower support areas such as $137 and $118 would come into play quickly.  With both Solana bulls and bears eyeing these pivotal levels, the next decisive move is likely to set the tone for SOL’s short-term trend.
