Solana (SOL) is once again back in the spotlight as bullish momentum returns to the crypto market. After briefly touching $212 last week, the altcoin retraced to around $209 but has held strong, sparking renewed optimism among traders. Related Reading: Bitcoin LTH Aging Velocity Turns Negative: Distribution Phase Unfolds Analysts now see a potential rally toward the $250 level, supported by growing institutional flows and speculation around a Solana spot ETF. Bitget Wallet’s CMO Jamie Elkaleh noted that “ETF conversations around SOL are further amplifying interest,” pointing to the more favorable regulatory tone emerging in the U.S. Market watchers believe a Solana ETF could drive adoption at scale, positioning SOL as one of the strongest altcoins to buy ahead of the next wave of institutional products. Solana ETF Buzz Fuels Momentum for Altcoins Solana isn’t the only digital asset grabbing attention. Wall Street analysts increasingly expect the U.S. SEC to broaden ETF approvals beyond Bitcoin and Ethereum. Among the top contenders are Solana, XRP, and Cardano, three coins that already boast high liquidity and established derivatives markets. Bloomberg’s James Seyffart suggested that assets like Solana and XRP are “well-positioned to qualify under existing listing rules,” with institutional demand likely to surge once funds launch. If approved, the introduction of a Solana ETF could trigger a demand shock, unlocking new inflows and strengthening its long-term market structure. Why Traders Are Watching SOL Closely Beyond ETF speculation, Solana’s on-chain growth continues to capture attention. The network recently hit a milestone with Real World Assets (RWAs) surpassing $500 million, underscoring growing institutional adoption of tokenized traditional assets. At the same time, Solana has maintained strong trading activity, with daily DEX volume reaching nearly $7.93 billion, even outpacing Ethereum. On the technical front, SOL is showing signs of resilience. Trading at around $209.30, the token sits comfortably above key moving averages, with the 7-day SMA at $206.70 providing immediate support.

Source: SOLUSD on Tradingview Analysts are watching the $218 resistance level closely, as a breakout could open the door to higher targets between $230 and $250. The RSI at 56.27 points to sustainable momentum with room for further upside before reaching overbought territory.

Despite recent volatility and price swings, XRP has remained firm above critical support levels, with technical indicators suggesting a possible breakout. Crypto analysts who closely monitor momentum on the daily time frame, particularly the Relative Strength Index (RSI), indicate that XRP bulls are regaining strength, paving the way for a potential move above the $ 3.60 mark. RSI Turns Bullish As XRP Eyes Higher Levels In his latest analysis on X social media, crypto market expert Dark Defender noted that XRP’s price structure is holding steady above essential support zones, with the $2.85 level emerging as a pivotal point in the current cycle. Previously identified as strong support, $ 2.85 has now flipped into a resistance barrier. Related Reading: XRP Price Could See 20% Bounce To $3.4 If This Trendline Holds A sustained push above this threshold could unlock a path toward $3 and beyond, ultimately setting the stage for a potential retest of the $3.6 weekly resistance line. At the time of writing, the price of XRP is $2.87, meaning a surge above $ 3.60 would represent a significant increase of more than 25%. On the daily chart, XRP has completed a corrective ABC pattern, with the recent bounce from the $2.74 level marking the start of a new upward wave. The RSI indicator has begun trending upward from oversold conditions, signaling renewed buying momentum. This bullish divergence strengthens the case for a potential breakout rally, provided that price maintains its footing above the retracement levels of 23.6% and 38.2%. Currently, momentum indicators suggest that XRP’s next target lies in the $2.85 and $3 zone, with the possibility of a stronger increase if volume supports the move. Dark Defender’s analysis underscores that although XRP’s price action remains slow and consolidating, its structure continues to align with bullish technical signals, reinforcing expectations of further upside in the near term. Analyst Signals Caution As XRP Exchange Reserves Spike Crypto analyst Greg Miller has announced on X that XRP exchange reserves have surged to a one-year high—a development often interpreted as a sign of selling pressure. Sharp increases in reserves typically suggest that more tokens are being moved onto centralized platforms, with investors possibly preparing for liquidation. Related Reading: Analyst Predicts The XRP Price If 10% Of Global Assets Are Tokenized The CryptoQuant‘s chart reveals a clear divergence between XRP’s exchange holdings and price action. While the cryptocurrency is consolidating around the $2.7 to $2.9 range, the sharp uptick in reserves reflects growing caution among investors. Historically, similar trends have preceded price corrections, and XRP’s earlier breakdown from the $2.74 level confirms that bearish momentum has not fully dissipated. According to Miller, the surge in reserves introduces a significant risk in September. While some technicals favor an upside breakout, the heavy supply in exchanges could cap gains prematurely, stalling any meaningful rally. Without a surge in demand to absorb inflows, Miller argues that XRP’s recovery toward $3 or higher remains unlikely. Featured image from Getty Images, chart from Tradingview.com

Dogecoin (DOGE) is leading the altcoin market higher as speculation surrounding a potential Rex-Osprey Dogecoin ETF intensifies. The memecoin surged 7% in the past 24 hours, climbing to $0.231, with daily trading volume spiking 123% to $2.6 billion. Related Reading: American Bitcoin, Backed By Trump, Ends Nasdaq Debut Up 17% According to prediction market Polymarket, the odds of DOGE ETF approval this week stand at 94%. Experts suggest such an approval could mark a turning point for Dogecoin, potentially placing it alongside Bitcoin and Ethereum in the regulated ETF landscape. Nate Geraci, President of NovaDius Wealth Management, noted on X that the “first Dogecoin ETF appears likely to launch this week,” fueling excitement across the crypto community. Analysts Eye Higher Targets for Dogecoin (DOGE) Technical analysts remain optimistic, with Dogecoin currently trading within a long-term logarithmic uptrend. Chart patterns highlight a broadening wedge, historically linked to explosive rallies. Analysts now point to $1.40 as the next major resistance level, with some forecasts suggesting a move toward $1.50 if ETF-driven momentum holds. Open interest in DOGE futures has surged 14.5% to $3.81 billion, while options activity has more than tripled. The skew toward bullish positions shows traders’ confidence, though analysts caution that a rejection at resistance could trigger sharp pullbacks. Despite near-term volatility risks, long-term projections remain bullish. Crypto strategist Javon Marks even suggested DOGE could see an 860% upside, targeting as high as $2.28 in the next major cycle. DOGE's price trends to the upside on the daily chart. Source: DOGEUSD on Tradingview Altcoins Join the Rally Dogecoin’s surge is lifting the broader market, with XRP, Solana (SOL), and Hyperliquid (HYPE) also recording gains. Optimism is being boosted not only by ETF speculation but also by expectations of a 50 basis point Fed rate cut at the upcoming September 17 meeting. A dovish policy shift could inject fresh liquidity into risk assets, further supporting altcoin momentum. The Dogecoin ETF, if approved, would represent the first U.S.-listed investment product tied to a meme coin. Such a milestone could expand institutional access, reinforce DOGE’s market leadership, and provide a foundation for its next price breakout.
