SOL Price Rebounds Analysts are seeing that Solana is off to a good
start as the virtual coin opened the new year with a price uptick,
raising market optimism over the crypto. SOL experienced an 10%
surge in its price on January 2, opening 2025 on a positive note.
Market observers also noted that Solana continues its dominance
over Ethereum on year-to-date performance. At the time of writing,
SOL was trading 209.22, up 3.5% in the last 24 hours, and soaring
10% in weekly timeframe. Data shows the price hike happened after a
brief consolidation for the altcoin. During the day, the crypto
reached a high of $209.35, nearing the $210 mark, while recording a
low of $188, which some analysts said was a reflection of the
regaining investors’ confidence and optimism on the digital asset.
What’s Next For Solana? Market observers explained that Solana
hitting $208 per coin is a significant achievement for the virtual
asset, saying that the price increase allowed the crypto to break
the resistance level of $202. This milestone is seen by analysts as
a crucial step for the ongoing recovery of the SOL crypto and in
propelling it to attain further gains. Related Reading: XRP’s Path
To $15: A Look At Historical Price Alignments After the $202 level,
many analysts see the next goal for the crypto is clawing way back
to $220, a critical level that SOL needs to surpass so it can
reclaim its loss glory at $245 per coin. If Solana is triumphant in
getting back to the $245 level, analysts believe it “would enable
Solana to recover most of its recent losses, reinforcing its
bullish outlook and boosting investor sentiment.” Excitement About
SOL ETF The regained investors’ confidence in Solana is being
attributed by some analysts to the growing excitement of a possible
Solana exchange-traded fund. Many crypto investors are anticipating
that the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) will approve
the Solana exchange-traded fund this year, a milestone that some
traders believe would drive the price of the coin up. Some traders
are speculating that the SEC would give the green light to Solana
exchange-traded fund as early as July 31, 2025, a rumor which is
gaining traction. Even the Polymarket platform said that there is a
65% probability that the ETF would get the approval, up from the
previous 50% approval likelihood prediction. Featured image from
