Solana rallies as risk appetite returns

Solana's native token SOL is surging as crypto markets shake off their risk-aversion hangover. The Ethereum rival—once left for dead after last cycle's blowups—is now leading the charge as traders rotate back into altcoins.

Why the sudden momentum?

Market structure flipped bullish after weeks of consolidation, with SOL breaking key resistance levels. Meme coin degens are back in force, and Solana's low-fee, high-speed blockchain is their playground of choice. Never mind that half these projects will rug in 6 months—for now, the hopium is flowing.

The real test comes next week when Bitcoin ETF flows hit the tape. If macro stays friendly, this could be more than a dead cat bounce. But let's be real—Wall Street's 'risk-on' switch flips faster than a crypto influencer dumping their bags.
