Solana ETF Inflows Hit 2.5 Month High — Why Is Price Still Subdued?

Solana price continues to trade within a defined consolidation range despite renewed optimism in broader markets. SOL has repeatedly tested resistance but failed to secure a decisive breakout.

Institutional sentiment appears to be improving. However, on-chain activity tells a different story. While traditional market participants position for upside, active network investors are reducing exposure.

Some Solana Holders Are Buying

Solana exchange-traded funds recorded $30.86 million in inflows on February 25. This marked the highest single-day inflow in more than two and a half months. The surge reflects growing institutional interest in SOL exposure through regulated investment vehicles.

Strong ETF inflows often signal improving macro confidence. Investors appear optimistic about Solana’s long-term potential. However, one-day spikes do not confirm sustained demand. Without consistent capital inflows, ETF activity alone may not drive an immediate breakout in Solana price.

Technical indicators show that momentum is building beneath the surface. The Squeeze Momentum Indicator is currently forming an active squeeze. This setup often precedes periods of elevated volatility in crypto markets.

Black dots on the indicator signal a potential bullish squeeze. When the compression releases, price volatility typically expands sharply. If the breakout aligns with strong demand, it could amplify SOL’s upside momentum. However, volatility expansions can also move in either direction.

Some Solana Holders Are Selling

Despite macro support, on-chain behavior suggests caution. Over the past three weeks, approximately 3.9 million SOL, valued at more than $298 million, have moved to exchanges. Transfers to exchanges often indicate intent to sell.

Persistent exchange inflows suggest holders remain skeptical. Some investors may be offsetting prior losses. Others could be reacting defensively to broader crypto uncertainty. Continued selling pressure reduces the probability of an immediate Solana price breakout.

SOL Price Breakout On The Cards

Solana is currently consolidating between $88 resistance and $77 support. Multiple breakout attempts have failed within this range. Price action reflects equilibrium between buyers and sellers. Without a clear catalyst, this structure may persist.

Given mixed macro and on-chain signals, continued consolidation appears likely. SOL may remain rangebound between $88 and $77 in the near term. ETF inflows provide support, but sustained exchange selling offsets bullish momentum.

A decisive move above $88 would invalidate the bearish-neutral outlook. Breaking this resistance could open the path toward $97. Crossing $97 would increase SOL’s probability of a move toward $100, provided network investors reduce selling activity and broader crypto sentiment remains stable.
