Solana broke below $150, while Ethereum defended $2,500, reclaiming strength in the SOL/ETH ratio. SOL revisits a historically reactive support zone. Volatility is back, and the market is actively stress-testing support levels across the board. In high-beta environments like this, price structure matters more than ever.
