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

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&#8217;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&#8217;s repeated failure to reclaim it reflects the market&#8217;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. Featured image from Dall-E, chart from
