Crash

Solana

Solana’s native token has been underperforming during the persistent bear market, but some analysts view the current levels as great buying opportunities.Others believe the asset is at a critical turning point, suggesting that a further 30% crash is not out of the question.<h2 id="more-bleeding">More Bleeding?</h2>SOL has been&nbsp;in a major decline lately, with X user WIZZ&nbsp;<a href="https://x.com/CryptoWizardd/status/2082103520388341980" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">noting</a> that it has logged nine consecutive red months and is at risk of closing a tenth&nbsp;– something unseen in its history. Ivan on Tech <a href="https://x.com/IvanOnTech/status/2082219391278854350" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">said</a> people should respect the trend and take it as a warning that the price could slip further in the near future.As of this writing, it trades at around $74 or very close to the $73.75 mark, which the popular analyst Ali Martinez <a href="https://x.com/alicharts/status/2082253016606916770" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">labeled</a> a “make-or-break” moment. He outlined that more than 50 million SOL were bought around that level, making it the most critical support on the map. Martinez thinks that a sustained close under the key zone might trigger additional selling pressure, with $60 becoming the next major downside target.<blockquote>“Below that, there is little meaningful support until $50,” he added.</blockquote>Shortly after, the analyst <a href="https://x.com/alicharts/status/2082388924635189406" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">claimed</a> that SOL has lost its rising channel, arguing that if bears maintain control, the price could move south toward $60.The waning institutional interest also signals that the token may experience a further pullback. SoSoValue’s data show that spot SOL ETFs remain unattractive to pension funds, hedge funds, and other investors. In fact, the daily total net inflow for July 28 dropped to -$18.07 million, the largest single-day red candle since December last year.<figure id="attachment_1444205" style="width: 100%" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><a href="https://cryptopotato.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/07/SOL-ETFs.png" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow"><img class="wp-image-1444205 size-full" src="https://cryptopotato.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/07/SOL-ETFs.png" alt="Spot SOL ETFs" width="592" height="492"></a><figcaption id="caption-attachment-1444205" class="wp-caption-text"> Spot SOL ETFs, Source: SoSoValue </figcaption></figure><h2 id="time-to-buy">Time to Buy?</h2>Others remain predominantly optimistic despite the ongoing depression.
