 <li>Whales got skeptical around this rally, however, sentiment remained high.</li>

<a href="https://ambcrypto.com/search/Solana" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" data-wpel-link="internal">Solana [SOL]</a> has been of the altcoins that has benefitted the most from the bullish sentiment around the crypto space.
In the last 24 hours, SOL surged over 16%, reaching a market value of $41.8 billion, surpassing BNB at $41.1 billion.
It now ranks as the fourth-largest cryptocurrency. Additionally, SOL’s contract trading volume surged by 32% to exceed 10 billion, with open interest reaching 1.34 billion, trailing only BTC and ETH.
<h4>Whale interest wanes</h4>
However, this growth of Solana could be stunted by whale behavior. BitMEX founder Arthur Hayes announced in a recent tweet that he has divested from SOL, opting to acquire more ETH.
Additionally, he forecasted a target price of $5,000 for Ethereum.
A decline in whale interest could potentially impede the growth trajectory of SOL.
Whales often play a significant role in influencing market trends, and their reduced participation may lead to lower liquidity and increased volatility in the SOL market.
This could impact investor confidence and overall sentiment, affecting the coin’s ability to sustain upward momentum.
It’s crucial to monitor whale activity as it can serve as an indicator of broader market dynamics and potential shifts in SOL’s price trajectory.

 In the past 24 hours, Solana DEXes processed $1.591B of volume.
 On September 21st, those DEXes processed $23.26M of volume and on September 22nd they processed $13.24M.
