RSI has plunged to 25 as price breaks below $80, confirming strong bearish momentum. Solana was trading at $78.33 at press time, down 2.7% over the past 24 hours.

Long positions began to unwind, and stop-losses were triggered in succession.  Selling pressure increased as a result. Solana is a high-beta asset that often amplifies broader market movements. It tends to fall more when sentiment changes, but it can also outperform in high risk-on situations.  In periods of uncertainty, traders often prefer deeper liquidity, and that may…
