Crypto analyst Crypto Patel has made a bullish case for Solana, explaining why it is time to start paying attention to the crypto asset. This came as he noted that SOL has printed 8 consecutive red monthly candles for the first time in its history. Why It Is Time To Start Paying Attention To Solana In an X post, Crypto Patel stated that Solana had just printed 8 consecutive red monthly candles in its existence and that this is worth paying attention to. He reiterated that this has never happened and then cited the 2021 bear cycle to explain why this could be significant for SOL. The analyst noted that back then, SOL crashed to around $8 after it topped at its all-time high (ATH) of $260 in November 2021. Related Reading: Solana Price Struggles Below $100, But This Level Changes Everything Crypto Patel mentioned that the 2021 bear phase also produced 9 red monthly candles, but that they were not consecutive. The 9th red candle is said to have marked the exact bottom at $8. Following the bear market bottom, SOL then went on to record a brand new ATH near $295 over the following years. The analyst noted that the current setup appears different and arguably stronger, with SOL forming 8 consecutive red candles, from a high of $253 down to a low of $67, and now the 9th monthly red candle is forming. He said that market participants have to wait for this month’s close before confirming anything, but that history has provided a familiar map. Crypto Patel further explained that if the 9th candle plays out as in the last bear cycle, it would signal a potential macro accumulation zone. He highlighted the $80 to $50 zone as the accumulation range to watch if the price extends lower. Meanwhile, if the fractal repeats itself, the analyst predicts that SOL could rally to a new ATH between $500 and $1,000. SOL Likely Heading Back To $67 In an X post, crypto analyst Jack Adams stated that he is almost certain that Solana is heading back to retest between $67 and $58 once more before it reverses to between $120 and $175 this year. He also mentioned that, based on the SOL/BTC and ETH charts, the crash should happen quickly rather than a slow bleed with regard to the buy zone. Related Reading: If The Bitcoin Price Crosses $400,000, Will The Solana Price Reach $1,500? Meanwhile, the analyst declared that the key monthly zone is within reach before the next bull cycle happens. He made this statement based on the previous monthly wicks and the area where it got heavily rejected earlier this year. SOL has notably suffered one of the largest crashes as the Bitcoin price extends its decline. At the time of writing, the Solana price is trading at around $70, down over 5% in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap. Featured image from Adobe Stock, chart from Tradingview.com

Bankless co-founder David Hoffman has disclosed how he redeployed capital after selling ETH, revealing a new portfolio tilted toward VVV, NEAR, ZEC, HYPE and LIT. The move marks a notable shift for one of Ethereum’s most recognizable public advocates and has triggered debate over whether Hoffman is rotating into a new long-term thesis or chasing a different segment of the market. In a post on X, Hoffman said he “immediately took ~50% of the capital to VVV, NEAR, ZEC, HYPE” after selling ETH. The other half, he said, was held back for dollar-cost averaging into an asset that had not already moved sharply higher. “I left the rest as capital to DCA into something not already up multiples,” Hoffman wrote, adding that NEAR was an exception because it was “~1.40 at the time.” He then said he had completed that second leg of the rotation: “I’ve finished buying LIT with that remaining 50%.” Why Hoffman Chose LIT As Next Major Crypto Bet The disclosure quickly shifted into a broader discussion about Hoffman’s investment thesis around LIT and Lighter, particularly after Multicoin Capital’s Kyle Samani asked why a user would choose Lighter over Robinhood. Hoffman framed the answer around product specialization, market structure and auditability rather than simply token speculation. Related Reading: ‘Coldest Crypto Winter Ever’: Bloomberg’s Weisenthal Lists 12 Reasons “The easy answer is that Robinhood is an everything platform, and Lighter is highly optimized for perps specifically,” Hoffman wrote. “Lighter has more assets, including more pre-IPO markets. Lighter doesn’t require KYC sign up, and Robinhood Perps are for only a closed group of users in the EU.” He acknowledged one important constraint: “By contrast, Lighter is VPN blocked in the US.” But Hoffman argued that the deeper distinction is transparency. He pointed to zkLighter, Lighter’s zero-knowledge system, which he said allows end users to verify the exchange’s rule enforcement without permission. “zkLighter is fully auditable by end users, so anyone can permissionlessly verify the exchange is following its own rules,” he wrote. “Order matching, funding, risk checks, liquidations etc are defined in zk circuits, so Ethereum verifies that they followed Lighter’s rules before accepting state updates. Bullish crypto ethos!” For Hoffman, the auditability claim is not merely technical branding. He argued that it goes directly to trader and market-maker trust, because participants can verify that “there is no privileged party trading against users,” invoking the FTX and Alameda collapse as the relevant failure mode. Hoffman also emphasized latency and execution cost. He claimed Lighter has “the best latency of any perp exchange” and “the best fee structure,” while pointing to third-party comparisons against Hyperliquid. On Robinhood, however, he was more cautious, saying he could not judge Robinhood perps directly because he cannot access them and would not be able to audit them in the same way. Related Reading: Crypto Is A ‘Failed’ Asset Class, Says Renowned Economist “Maybe Robinhood, when it eventually rolls out perps, also has a 0-fee structure too,” he wrote. “But that means a tie between RH and Lighter, not a RH win.” The debate also exposed pushback from parts of the Ethereum community. One user accused Hoffman of going “from eth maxi to the other extreme,” while another suggested he had become more of a short-term trader. Hoffman rejected both characterizations. “The technology under all of these assets is pretty interesting too,” he replied to one critic. To another who joked about him having an investment thesis and sticking to it, Hoffman responded: “My last investment thesis I had for eight years. God forbid I get a new one!” Asked directly about LIT versus HYPE, Hoffman said he views the position as both “beta and alpha” to HYPE. His reasoning centered on relative buybacks, product quality and regulatory positioning, citing “LIT buybacks” as moving at “2x the relative speed of HYPE Buybacks,” alongside what he described as a technically superior product, better fees, stronger latency and US domicile. At press time LIT traded at $1.50. Featured image created with DALL.E, chart from TradingView.com
