Solana price is edging toward the $140 mark as steady institutional demand continues to shape its market direction.
Summary
- SOL trades near a key resistance level, with spot and futures volumes showing mixed activity.
- Solana spot ETFs have logged 21 straight days of inflows, pulling in $53M on Nov. 25 and reaching $621M total.
- Price is tightening between key trendlines, with momentum signs improving and $140 acting as a level to watch.
Solana is trading near $139, up 1.4% in the past 24 hours and moving toward the upper end of its seven-day range between $124.09 and $144.01. The token is still down 31% over the past month and now sits 52% below its $293 all-time high from January.
24-hour spot volume stands at $4.92 billion, down 12.3%, pointing to a decline in short-term participation. Derivatives activity is also mixed. According to CoinGlass data, futures volume slipped 1.17% to $18.34 billion, while open interest held steady at $7.13 billion.
This shows that traders are not aggressively adding new positions after the recent volatility.
Spot Solana ETFs record strong inflows
Solana’s (SOL) institutional demand continues to stand out. Data from SoSoValue shows SOL ETFs brought in $53.08 million in net inflows on Nov. 25, led by Bitwise’s BSOL with $30.9 million. Grayscale’s GSOL added $15.9 million, while Fidelity’s FSOL and VanEck’s VSOL saw $4.8 million and $1.33 million, respectively.
The strength in ETF demand has been steady since late October. Solana ETFs have now recorded 21 consecutive days of inflows, the longest uninterrupted streak for any major crypto ETF in 2025. Cumulative inflows have reached $621 million, a sharp contrast to the outflows hitting Bitcoin and Ethereum products.
The ETF momentum may accelerate further. On Nov. 25, Franklin Templeton filed Form 8-A with the Securities and Exchange Commission to register the Franklin Solana ETF. This marks the final procedural step before trading. The product may list on NYSE Arca as early as Nov. 26.
Solana co-founder Raj Gokal called the streak “greatly underappreciated,” noting that ETF inflows have created a steady base of demand even through the recent market slide. Researchers at LVRG say the inflows have formed a “support floor,” which may help price stability as liquidity rebuilds.
Solana price technical analysis
The chart shows Solana pressing into a tight price zone, created by a descending trendline from October’s lower highs and a rising support line that has formed higher lows since mid-November. This compression often precedes a stronger move.
Traders are keeping a close eye on the $140 level, since it’s been a key support-and-resistance area for months.
Momentum indicators are starting to show the market trying to pull away from its recent weakness. The relative strength index has risen from oversold territory and formed a bullish divergence.
MACD and short-term moving averages have started to turn upward as well, while longer-term averages are above price, a sign that Solana is attempting to build a base within a larger downward structure.
If Solana holds above $140, buyers could attempt a move toward $150 and later the $160 region, where heavier resistance sits. Failure to stay above this level, however, would bring the $128–$130 area back into view.
A break below these levels could pull the market toward the $118–$120 zone, especially if sentiment weakens or ETF demand slows.
