$SOL Gets 200ms Slots, But Price Still Slides 8%
What happened?
Solana's final slot-time cut (400ms to 200ms since August) was scheduled for Oct 9. Block opportunities double to 5 per second while max compute per block drops to 30M units.
Why does it matter?
Faster confirmations help traders, yet validators vote twice as often, raising costs. The market is not rewarding it: SOL is $108.97, down 8.5% in 7 days.
What's next?
Bearish short term. Expect SOL to test $105.7 support while it stays under $112.1 resistance (weekly high $122.3). Not financial advice, DYOR.
