The price of RIVER surged by over 180% in the past seven days, despite the recent airdrop. RIVER moved from $4.2 to above $15. However, there has been no major announcement or news to justify this price movement, suggesting that it may be driven by whale activity. Since the price of RIVER appears to be heavily influenced by whales, there is a high chance it could decline back toward $4 in the coming days, similar to what we recently saw with LIGHT. If you plan to short RIVER, consider placing a short limit order around $14 to $15 with low leverage, targeting the $9 to $8 range. Always remember to use a stop-loss.
Solana is one of the best coins to watch in 2026. Early last year, Solana’s price fell from $290 in January to below $100, before rebounding to over $240 in September. Now, the price has pulled back to around $124, suggesting a strong possibility that Solana could break above $300 this year. We’re here to track every moment. For now, it’s crucial that Solana holds the $124 support level. A drop below $115 could open the door for a move toward $95. However, if the current price level holds, the next ten weeks will be critical for Solana’s price direction.
