Market sentiment suggests that Solana’s (SOL) price may crash to the $80 level. On August 31, 2024, the on-chain analytic firm Lookonchain made a post on X (previously Twitter) that Crypto Whale or Institution dumped a significant 139,532 SOL worth $19.5 million to Binance at a loss of $5.5 million.

Solana Whale Sell-off 140K SOL
According to a post on X, the whale wallet address “FkVrB” initially unstaked 139,532 SOL worth $19.5 million and later deposited it to Binance two days ago. The data shows that the wallet address “FkVrB” purchased this significant SOL when it was trading at the $180 level in July 2024, potentially in anticipation of a spot Solana Exchange Traded Fund (ETF) in the United States.
Since then SOL has never revisited the $180 level and currently, it looks bearish.
Solana Price Prediction
According to expert technical analysis, Solana (SOL) is currently at a crucial support level of $127. Additionally, it is trading below the 200 Exponential Moving Average (EMA) on a daily time frame, indicating a downtrend.
Based on the historical price momentum, whenever SOL reaches the support level of $127, it tends to see a massive upside rally. This time, there is a high chance it could soar by 40% to the $180 level.
However, if SOL fails to hold this support level and closes a daily candle below the $120 level, there is a high possibility that SOL could fall to the next support level at $80.
