 <p class="paragraph">Technical analysis shows a strong support level at $88.71 per SOL, while Solana faces resistance at $101.78. Essentially, the token could test its support following the negative news or even move toward its resistance if the issue is provenly solved.</p>

 <p class="paragraph">Nevertheless, the future of Solana is uncertain, which might also affect investor’s confidence in the project that is still in beta. This situation worsens, considering these incidents have been recurrent for Ethereum’s main competitor by market capitalization.</p>
 <h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="solana-network-outages-historic">Solana network outages historic</h2>
 <p class="paragraph">Interestingly, one of Solana’s biggest issues happened in September 2021 with a major outage that lasted for 18 hours. However, this was just the beginning of what became a poor track record of the network’s functionality.</p>
 <p class="paragraph">In 2022, Solana experienced a series of issues and similar incidents, according to <em>Solana Status</em>’ website. As reported by Finbold in June 2022, SOL lost 77% of its value following these <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="outage" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/outage.html">outage</a>s. All that seemed to end by February 2023, with a major <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="outage" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/outage.html">outage</a> that lasted nearly 19 hours.</p>
 <p class="paragraph">Cryptocurrencies are inherently volatile and unpredictable, but these technical flaws create more risks for their participants.</p>
 <p class="paragraph">In this context, this most recent incident again shakes the cryptocurrency market‘s confidence in the project. Investors, users, and developers must act cautiously moving forward and follow the updates related to this issue, its solutions, and technical forecasts for the future.&nbsp;</p>
