The cryptocurrency $SOL is currently trading at around US$105.85 (approximately R$539.15), up slightly by 1.7% over the past 24 hours. The asset is seeking to stabilize after a series of net outflows from institutional funds and ETFs throughout October, and is trading in a zone that chart analysts consider an important support level. The biggest catalyst at the moment is the official launch of the Alpenglow upgrade, scheduled for October 21, 2026. The upgrade promises to structurally change the network’s validation consensus, reducing transaction finalization time from 12.8 seconds to 100–150 milliseconds and cutting validator node operating costs by up to 98%.
