Solana ($SOL ) Market Update: $96 Support Under Pressure, Network Fundamentals Stay Strong
$SOL is trading near $96.85, down roughly 5% as it tests a critical support zone where 72 million SOL previously changed hands. The drop followed the CLARITY Act failing to advance in the U.S. Senate, adding macro uncertainty.
Fundamental divergence: Despite price weakness, on-chain activity is surging. Solana leads x402 agentic payments with over 80% market share, and addresses holding tokenized equities jumped 88% to 800K+ in under two weeks. A whale accumulated $28M in SOL** over three weeks, signaling conviction. Spot SOL ETFs pulled in over **$200M in the past month, with 3M SOL withdrawn from exchanges.
Key levels: $96–$97 is immediate support; a break below exposes $95** and potentially **$80–$85**. Resistance sits at **$98–$100**, then **$102–$104.
Binance Trade Setup: Wait for confirmation. If $SOL reclaims $100** with volume, consider a cautious long targeting **$102–$104**, stop below **$96. If support fails, stay flat—macro headwinds and ETF inflow cooling warrant patience. DYOR.
