Solana Bounces Back: SOL Shatters Resistance as Sell-off Fears Diminish

Solana’s native token SOL just flipped a critical resistance level into support—signaling bullish momentum after weeks of downward pressure. Traders who panic-sold last week are now scrambling to explain why ’this time was different.’

Market psychology shifts fast: The same crowd that called $SOL ’dead’ above $120 now FOMO-buys at $150. Classic crypto whiplash—where fundamentals matter less than the herd’s mood swings.

Meanwhile, institutional traders quietly accumulate positions. Because nothing pleases Wall Street more than retail investors selling low and buying high.

SOL price rebounds from weekly lows

According to CoinMarketCap data, SOL has reclaimed its key resistance level of $150 and has potential for a further rise. Solana’s price was changing hands at $150.03 as of press time, representing a 0.98% increase in the last 24 hours.

The trading volume has not rebounded and is still down by 30.71% at $3.88 billion. This suggests investors remain cautious and monitor developments to see the price trajectory.

SOL has experienced significant growth in the last seven days. In its rebound move, the asset registered an uptick of 14.09%, climbing from $133.66 to its current level.

Despite the coin’s currently low price level, renowned trader DonAlt has made a bold prediction. The trader’s prediction is significant, considering he is not a Solana enthusiast.

Per his prediction, Solana could hit $200 as the asset uses the U.S. trade tariff to attract willing investors.

ETF filings and regulatory momentum could boost Solana

Meanwhile, ecosystem development could support SOL’s recovery journey as the broader market anticipates regulatory approval for key institution-focused products.

Notably, Solana is among the leading assets with the highest number of exchange-traded fund (ETFs) filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) awaiting its attention.

Some users believe that with the new U.S. SEC chair officially sworn into office, attention could shift to the pending filings acknowledged by the regulatory body. If the SEC grants the approvals as expected, the institutional adoption could drive prices further upward.

In a surprise comment, renowned trader Peter Brandt also believes that SOL could outperform Ethereum in the long run.
