Crypto Sell-Off: Is Solana Headed for $80?Without a doubt, Solana was the hottest topic in the crypto market last year and at the start of this one—especially with the meme coin craze.
However, after peaking near $300, the price began to decline in what initially appeared to be a normal correction. But once Solana broke below the $200 mark, things turned ugly, and the price quickly dropped to the key $120 support zone—a level that held strong over the past year.
Now, it looks like Solana is on the verge of breaking below this support, which could trigger an acceleration toward $80, with the $100 psychological level as an intermediate stop.
________________________________________
Why the Downside is Likely to Continue
📉 Bulls Can’t Hold Gains – Short-term rallies are fading fast, showing a lack of real buying strength.
📉 Bearish Engulfing Candle – Yesterday’s price action printed a lower high, adding further pressure on support.
📉 $120 Breakdown Incoming? – If this level fails, expect a sharp decline toward $80.
________________________________________
Trading Plan: Selling Under $130
🔻 Sell Rallies Below $130 – Targeting a move to $80 in the medium term.
🔻 Only a Sustained Move Above $130 – Would shift Solana to a neutral stance—not bullish by any means.
For now, the bearish pressure remains, and selling rallies is the strategy to follow. 🚀

Will SOL drop below $100?Hello Traders,
I hope you are all doing well. Here’s a quick analysis of SOL on the weekly timeframe.
After reaching its all-time high of $295, SOL experienced a 60% decline within 11 weeks. According to the chart, the support trendline remains strong, and technically, the price has not yet reached that level.
If we see a further dip toward the support trendline, SOL could drop as low as $90. However, a rebound from this level could lead to a significant upward move.
Long-Term Strategy:
✅ Accumulation: $90 to $125
✅ Trade Type: Spot
✅ Target: $300 to a new all-time high
✅ Period: By the end of Q3
🔔 Reminder: Always conduct your own research and analysis before investing. This is not financial advice.

Solana Correction - Is a Drop to $60 Inevitable?After an explosive 200x rally, Solana surged from its all time low at $1 to a new all time high in 2021, followed by a correction to $10 in 2022. It then made another massive run to $250 in 2024.
Now, a double-top "M" pattern is forming, signaling a reversal. As shown on the chart, we could see a drop to $60.
What's your take - has the top been set, or do you disagree with the bearish outlook? Let me know your thoughts!
Kindly support this idea with a LIKE👍 if you find it useful🥳
Happy Trading💰🥳🤗
SOLANA(UPDATE)Hello friends
Due to the heavy price drop, you can see that buyers are slowly entering and the price is creating a good ascending channel, which now provides a good opportunity to buy in stages and with capital management and move towards the specified goals.
Don't forget to save profit on each target.

Primer: Solana - A Blazing BlockchainCME Group’s newly launched Solana futures enable institutional grade access to the cryptocurrency, offering investors access to compelling relative value opportunities.
This paper provides a background to Solana in relation to other major blockchain networks and cryptocurrencies. Mint Finance will outline the execution of crypto market spread trades using CME futures in an upcoming paper.
Solana is a high-performance public blockchain launched in 2020 by Solana Labs, founded by Anatoly Yakovenko (a former Qualcomm engineer). Yakovenko first proposed Solana’s novel Proof of History (PoH) concept in 2017 as a solution to blockchain scalability. He assembled a founding team including former Qualcomm colleague Greg Fitzgerald and others and named the project after a California beach town.
Backed by early venture funding, Solana’s mainnet launched in March 2020. The vision was to enable ultra-fast, low-cost transactions for decentralized applications (e.g. DeFi, gaming), addressing limitations of Bitcoin & Ethereum in speed and fees.
Solana has grown rapidly to become one of the most used networks and amassed a market cap of USD 64 billion, making it one of the largest digital assets. What is behind the massive surge? Is it due to flip ETH as the home of DeFi?
How Does Solana’s Blockchain Rank?
While Solana’s low fees and fast transaction speeds have driven high trading volume, transaction count, and wallet growth, it still trails ETH in Total Value Locked (TVL). To achieve its high transaction throughput, Solana has made certain compromises on decentralization.
In terms of ecosystem development, Solana is seeing rapid growth. The Electric Capital 2024 developer report found Solana attracted the most new developers in 2024 – more than any other ecosystem (even Ethereum’s, despite Ethereum’s broader base).
Solana now has ~2,500 monthly active developers, second only to Ethereum’s ~8,900 (which includes many working on Layer-2s). This loyal & expanding developer base has been a key factor behind Solana’s explosive growth.
DEX Surge and Meme Coin Mania
Solana’s early growth was driven by NFTs, supported by low fees and a loyal community that made it a hub for NFT trading. These factors continued to attract users even after the NFT boom subsided. Its fast, low-cost blockchain and strong developer base have enabled the launch of many user-friendly and popular applications. More recently, Solana’s growth has been fuelled by surging decentralized exchange (DEX) volumes and a wave of meme coin minting.
By November 2024, meme coin trading accounted for an all-time high 65% of monthly DEX volume on Solana’s largest DEX, Raydium. Raydium even overtook Uniswap in monthly volume that month.
Solana’s advantages in cost and speed have been pivotal in this trend. Transaction fees on Solana are negligible and on-par with L2 chains. This cost advantage makes minting and trading low-value tokens (like meme coins) economically feasible on Solana but prohibitively expensive on Ethereum layer-1. Similarly, Solana’s block times (~0.4 seconds) and high throughput enable rapid trading. Traders can execute many rapid swaps on Solana DEXs without the delays and slippage that Ethereum’s ~12-second blocks and occasional congestion introduce. Solana’s speed and low fees thus attracted a flood of retail speculators for meme coins and high-frequency trading strategies.
Ethereum’s ecosystem still offers deeper liquidity and broader dApp selection, but Solana capitalized on specific niches (e.g. meme coins, real-time trading) where Ethereum’s costs are a barrier.
However, this explosive growth was not without turbulence. In early 2025, a “meme coin meltdown” saw activity cooling off after several scam tokens collapsed. By February 2025, Solana’s share of total on-chain DEX volume, which had topped 51% in January, retreated to 24% as some froth cleared.
Data Source: Artemis
Scandals like a fake “Libra” token (which vaporized $4.4B in market cap) and a Trump-themed token rug pull dented retail sentiment. Even so, Solana’s DEX volumes remain on par with Ethereum’s entire ecosystem (L1 + L2), a remarkable feat. VanEck’s Feb 2025 report noted that despite an 80%+ drop in new meme token launches since January, Solana DEX activity “is still holding its own – roughly matching the entire ETH ecosystem”.
In short, the meme coin mania has demonstrated Solana’s capacity to manage massive retail-driven bursts of activities that might overwhelm other chains.
Market Metrics For BTC, ETH, and SOL
Since the bottom of the bear market following the FTX collapse. Solana has delivered a stunning recovery, far outperforming both BTC and ETH, but the massive gains were partly explained by the much sharper decline following FTX.
During 2024, SOL performance moved in lockstep with BTC with both assets delivering stunning returns. However, the performance diverged sharply after Jan/2025, coinciding with the collapse in DEX trading volume. The sharp correction since has erased most of the 2024 gains while BTC has remained resilient.
Solana has, nevertheless, managed to outperform ETH which has suffered an even deeper correction over the past few months.
Data Source: TradingView
Historical volatility for all three assets shows a similar trend but differ in magnitude. SOL has the highest volatility while ETH follows second and BTC is least volatile. During spikes, the differences become exaggerated, but during lows, the values can reach similar lows.
For traders, higher volatility can be both an opportunity and a risk.
While SOL’s performance is positively correlated with both ETH and BTC, this correlation breaks frequently (more commonly with ETH) and these periods of divergence present compelling spread opportunities.
The trend for implied volatility (IV) is like HV with SOL’s IV the highest and Bitcoin’s IV the lowest. Recently, IV has started to edge up again following a decline through March.
Trading Solana and Crypto Spreads
With the launch of CME’s Solana and Micro Solana futures, investors can express views on Solana’s growth and take tactical positions that benefit from relative outperformance. Mint Finance will outline the execution of crypto market spread trades using CME futures in an upcoming paper.
CME Solana futures provide exposure to 500 SOL per futures contract and reference the CME CF Solana-Dollar Reference Rate.
CME Micro Solana futures offer a smaller notional value to create more balanced spreads and for fine-tuning exposure. The micro contract provides exposure to 25 SOL.
Additional details about the contract including margins, calendars, and specifications are available on the CME Solana product page .

SOL/USDT – Key Support Test: Will It Hold or Break?#SOL/USDT #Analysis
Description
---------------------------------------------------------------
Solana (SOL) has been in a strong uptrend since late 2023, but recent price action suggests a key test of support around the $115–$135 zone. This level was previously a major resistance and is now being retested as support.
Moving Averages: The price has dipped below the shorter EMAs but is still above the long-term moving average.
Bearish Momentum: The recent sharp drop suggests selling pressure, but the support zone could lead to a reversal.
Two Scenarios:
🔼 Bullish: If the support holds, SOL could bounce back towards $180+ and continue its uptrend.
🔽 Bearish: If support breaks, a deeper correction to $43–$60 is possible.
📊 Trading Strategy
Long Entry: If a strong bounce occurs from the $115–$135 zone, targeting $180+.
Short Entry: A confirmed breakdown below $115 could trigger a move toward $60 or lower.

Solana - The Bullrun Is Not Over Yet!Solana ( CRYPTO:SOLUSD ) might create another move higher:
Click chart above to see the detailed analysis👆🏻
As we are speaking Solana is sitting at the exact same level as it was about 3.5 years ago in the end of 2021. In the meantime we saw a lot of volatility and Solana is now once again retesting a major previous support level. Despite the harsh recent drop, the bullrun remains valid to this day.
Levels to watch: $120, $250
Keep your long term vision,

The Global BTC Shake out is coming before 1 million BTC in 2037I believe it worth stating that we might be in a moment where bitcoin is gonna shake everyone out and make everyone sell or at least all those who think 1 million BTC is coming soon. The great Bitcoin reset cycle will occur eventually before true mass adoption... we could very well retest $15,000 as bottom sometime next year.. if true BUY and hodl and invest consistantly for a whole decade and reap the reward of a 1 million bitcoin probably in 2037-38 and Bitcoin by then will be nearly on par with golds market cap by then or below it. And youll become among the weathiest of the wealth.
#SOL/USDT#SOL
The price is moving within a descending channel on the 1-hour frame, adhering well to it, and is heading for a strong breakout and retest.
We are seeing a bounce from the lower boundary of the descending channel, this support at 138.
We have a downtrend on the RSI indicator that is about to be broken and retested, supporting the upward trend.
We are looking for stability above the 100 moving average.
Entry price: 142
First target: 144
Second target: 146
Third target: 148
SOLUSD: Bottom formation in process. Target 350.Solana just turned neutral on its 1D technical outlook (RSI = 48.726, MACD = -4.803, ADX = 29.746) as it is approaching the 1D MA50 following a strong rebound on both the S1 Zone but more importantly the 1W MA100. Straight after the low, the market formed a 1D Death Cross. The previous such pattern (September 6th 2024) was formed again on a market low on the S1 Zone. Whether the rebound takes effect immediately or 2 months (max) after, we see this as a great buy opportunity to aim at the HH Zone and the 2.618 Fibonacci extension (TP = 350.00).

The key is whether it can be supported and rise near 137.28
Hello, traders.
If you "Follow", you can always get new information quickly.
Please also click "Boost".
Have a nice day today.
-------------------------------------
The April TradingView competition is sponsored by PEPPERSTONE.
Accordingly, we will look at the coins (tokens) and items that can be traded in the competition.
Let's talk about the SOLUSD chart.
--------------------------------------
(ETHUSD 1D chart)
The circled sections on the chart are important support and resistance sections.
Since the M-Signal indicators on the 1D, 1W, and 1M charts are passing through the 137.28-180.38 range, it is important to see whether it can receive support and rise this time.
If it fails to rise, it is likely to fall to the Fibonacci ratio range of 2 (80.31) ~ 1.902 (88.47).
-
We need to see if the OBV can rise above the Fibonacci ratio of 1.27 (141.08) as it rises above the middle line.
Since the OBV indicator itself has fallen below the 0 point, there is a high possibility that the selling pressure will increase.
Therefore, we need to check the support and resistance points when the OBV rises above the 0 point.
If it shows support near 180.38, I think it is highly likely that it will turn into an upward trend and rise.
-
Therefore, when the competition starts, check if it is located in the 137.28-180.38 range, and if not, it is expected that a sell (SHORT) position will be advantageous.
Even if the price is maintained above 137.28,
- There is a possibility that it will be difficult to maintain a buy (LONG) position due to the fact that the OBV is located below the 0 point,
- The M-Signal indicator on the 1W, 1M charts is in a reverse arrangement, etc.
-
Thank you for reading to the end.
I hope you have a successful transaction.
--------------------------------------------------
- This is an explanation of the big picture.
I used TradingView's INDEX chart to check the entire range of BTC.
I rewrote it to update the previous chart while touching the Fibonacci ratio range of 1.902 (101875.70) ~ 2 (106275.10).
(Previous BTCUSD 12M chart)
Looking at the big picture, it seems to have been following a pattern since 2015.
In other words, it is a pattern that maintains a 3-year bull market and faces a 1-year bear market.
Accordingly, the bull market is expected to continue until 2025.
-
(Current BTCUSD 12M chart)
Based on the currently written Fibonacci ratio, it is displayed up to 3.618 (178910.15).
It is expected that it will not fall again below the Fibonacci ratio of 0.618 (44234.54).
(BTCUSDT 12M chart)
I think it is around 42283.58 when looking at the BTCUSDT chart.
-
I will explain it again with the BTCUSD chart.
The Fibonacci ratio ranges marked in the light green boxes, 1.902 (101875.70) ~ 2 (106275.10) and 3 (151166.97) ~ 3.14 (157451.83), are expected to be important support and resistance ranges.
In other words, it seems likely to act as a volume profile range.
Therefore, in order to break through this section upward, I think the point to watch is whether it can rise with support near the Fibonacci ratios of 1.618 (89126.41) and 2.618 (134018.28).
Therefore, the maximum rising section in 2025 is expected to be the 3 (151166.97) ~ 3.14 (157451.83) section.
To do that, we need to look at whether it can rise with support near 2.618 (134018.28).
If it falls after the bull market in 2025, we don't know how far it will fall, but considering the previous decline, we expect it to fall by about -60% to -70%.
So, if the decline starts near the Fibonacci ratio 3.14 (157451.83), it seems likely that it will fall to around Fibonacci 0.618 (44234.54).
I will explain more details when the downtrend starts.
------------------------------------------------------
SOL buy/long setup (4H)In the hourly timeframes, bullish signals are visible on the Solana chart.
The trigger line has been broken. Bullish (ICH) is present on the chart. Higher lows (L) are forming.
We are looking for buy/long positions in the demand zone.
A 4-hour candle close below the invalidation level will invalidate this analysis
Do not enter the position without capital management and stop setting
Comment if you have any questions
thank you
Solana (SOL) 22.03.2025In the near term, Solana (SOL) is showing a desire to return to its price channel, but further asset allocation is likely to be delayed until the summer of 2025. Despite the possible optimistic outlook for growth, it is worth preparing for corrective moves in September. SOL is among the three assets where market makers are already active, which may indicate artificial liquidity maintenance or position accumulation.
Significant growth is likely to be expected in Ethereum (ETH), while recent momentum is more likely to manifest itself in Bitcoin (BTC) and Solana (SOL). The long-awaited altcoin season may start soon, which requires investors to be more selective. It is recommended to reallocate capital from fundamental assets to high-risk instruments with growth potential, keeping a balance between risk and return.
Special attention should be paid to the Solana ecosystem, where promising projects such as PRCL are already present, which emphasizes the technological and investment attractiveness of blockchain.

SOL - Were you entertained?At $21 I predicted SOL will get back to ATH. (see below)
This is an update of the idea where I provide detailed comparison to a bearish shark. This also plays with how I see BTC and rest of crypto. Unlike what is being said by others, I believe we are closer to the end of the crypto rally.
