Analysts are seeing that Solana is off to a good start as the virtual coin opened the new year with a price uptick, raising market optimism over the crypto.

At the time of writing, SOL was trading 209.22, up 3.5% in the last 24 hours, and soaring 10% in weekly timeframe. Data shows the price hike happened after a brief consolidation for the altcoin.


During the day, the crypto reached a high of $209.35, nearing the $210 mark, while recording a low of $188, which some analysts said was a reflection of the regaining investors’ confidence and optimism on the digital asset.

After the $202 level, many analysts see the next goal for the crypto is clawing way back to $220, a critical level that SOL needs to surpass so it can reclaim its loss glory at $245 per coin.

The regained investors’ confidence in Solana is being attributed by some analysts to the growing excitement of a possible Solana exchange-traded fund.


Many crypto investors are anticipating that the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) will approve the Solana exchange-traded fund this year, a milestone that some traders believe would drive the price of the coin up.


Some traders are speculating that the SEC would give the green light to Solana exchange-traded fund as early as July 31, 2025, a rumor which is gaining traction.


Even the Polymarket platform said that there is a 65% probability that the ETF would get the approval, up from the previous 50% approval likelihood prediction.
