SOLANA SETS ETF AND ONCHAIN RECORDS, BUT PRICE REMAINS FAR BELOW ATH
Solana is showing a notable divergence: network activity and ETF inflows are hitting records, while SOL’s price has yet to reflect that strength.
According to Farside Investors, cumulative net inflows into six U.S. spot Solana ETFs have reached $1.22 billion, including $33.5 million on Monday, the largest single-day inflow of 2026. Inflows have continued for five consecutive sessions, although most of the capital remains concentrated in Bitwise’s BSOL.
Onchain activity is also surging. Solana processed 4.2 billion transactions in July, up 13.5% month-over-month and 91% higher than December 2025.
During the same period, the block limit was raised 66%, from 60 million to 100 million compute units. Tokenized real-world assets on Solana also reached $3.73 billion, with more than 313,000 wallets holding these assets.
Meme coins remain an important driver of network activity. Weekly spot meme-coin volume on Solana reached $5.2 billion in mid-August, the highest level of 2026.
Yet SOL is currently trading around $96, despite gaining 24% over the past week. The token remains roughly 67% below its $293.31 all-time high.
The gap between fundamental activity and token price is therefore becoming increasingly clear. ETF inflows are rising, onchain activity is setting records and infrastructure is expanding, but the market has yet to reprice SOL toward its previous peak.
The upcoming Alpenglow upgrade is expected to further improve network performance, but the bigger question is whether ecosystem growth can translate into sustained demand for SOL.
Is SOL showing signs of being undervalued, or does the market still view record onchain activity and ETF inflows as insufficient catalysts for a new bullish cycle?
