Solana Forms Double Bottom Pattern, Targets $195 After Breakout
Solana has developed a technical double bottom pattern, signaling a potential bullish reversal. The cryptocurrency found strong support at $135, with resistance NEAR $155—a breakout above this level could propel prices toward the $170–$195 range.

REX Shares Proposes Innovative Solana ETF with Staking Component
REX Shares has filed for a groundbreaking Solana-focused ETF that incorporates staking rewards—a first in the U.S. market. The fund's novel legal structure under the Investment Company Act of 1940 ('40 Act) may bypass traditional SEC approval processes, potentially accelerating launch timelines.
Market analysts highlight the product's dual appeal: price exposure to SOL paired with yield generation through staking, all wrapped in a familiar ETF format. Bloomberg's Eric Balchunas suggests operational readiness, while ETF Store's Nate Geraci notes the creative regulatory approach could set a precedent for crypto investment vehicles.
The proposal arrives as institutional interest in blockchain-native yield mechanisms grows. Unlike previous crypto ETFs, this structure eliminates technical barriers for traditional investors seeking passive staking income.
