Solana Price Prediction: Will SOL Break Above $200?

Published by

After an impressive breakout last week, Solana (SOL), a rapidly growing layer one (L1) blockchain with many decentralized finance (DeFi) protocols, is gaining significant bullish momentum. Currently valued at about $98 billion, with a daily trading volume averaging around $4.6 billion, this large-cap altcoin has recently retested its support/resistance level above $161, signaling a potential upward movement.

Trading at around $168 at the time of writing, Solana’s price is now just 35% away from its all-time high (ATH). From a technical standpoint, SOL needs to consistently close above its July 2024 peak of about $190 to prevent a possible retracement to the support level of approximately $120, which has held steady during the past seven months of consolidation.

Why Solana Bulls Remains Undefeated

At the heart of the Solana network is the vibrant online community of developers and investors. With around 2,223 validators, the Solana network has scaled to over 330 billion transactions since its inception. In the last 24 hours, the Solana network registered over 7.6 million active addresses, compared to about 350k on the Ethereum (ETH) network.

Driven by increasing demand for Solana’s services, including staking, the total value locked (TVL) in the network has reached a multi-year high of about $6.41 billion. Additionally, Solana’s stablecoin market cap has surged to over $3.58 billion.

DeFi Activity on the Rise

The recent increase in Solana’s DeFi activity can be largely attributed to the meme coin market, which has a valuation of around $11.2 billion and a daily trading volume of about $2.6 billion.

Solana’s future is bright, but the road ahead is uncertain. What do you think is next?
