The Solana price rebounded quite nicely from the October 10 crash, quickly reclaiming $200 after hitting as low as $150 on some crypto exchanges. Despite this, though, the altcoin is still not out of the woods, with bearish indicators that seem to be piling up around it. Unless something changes soon, the Solana price could be gearing up for another major hit that could send it down even lower than the legendary flash crash.
Friday’s Crash Was Only Confirmation Of Bearish Pattern For Solana PriceWhile the broader market thinks that the October 10 crash has come and gone, leaving the market in a more bullish state, one analyst deviates from this and believes that this has actually set the Solana price on a more bearish path to more declines.
According to an analysis shared on the TradingView website, crypto analyst Klejdi Cuni shows that the Solana price actually confirmed a larger bearish pattern after the crash triggered by Donald Trump’s 100% tariff comments on China. As a result, the entire bearish trend is yet to actually play out.
Not only is the Solana price already on track for more corrections, but it is also further at risk as the Bitcoin price struggles to hold up. After initially recovering, the Bitcoin price has since been on a slow decline, and altcoins such as Solana have been affected as well.
With the Bitcoin price already struggling, the analyst believes that the Solana price is already looking at a decline to at least $170. However, in the event that the entire bearish narrative does play out, then the Solana price is at risk of crashing 50% to $104.
SOL ETFs Could Change The NarrativeAmid the expected bear pressure, there is still the topic of pending Solana ETF applications that could change the entire narrative. Data from The Block website shows a total of 11 Solana ETFs that are pending a decision from the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
If these Solana ETFs are approved for trading, it could trigger a large influx of institutional liquidity into the altcoin. Just like the trend seen with the Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs, this could lead to a surge in the Solana price, effectively eliminating the bears from the table.
At the time of writing, the Solana price was still trending above $200. However, with the Bitcoin price skirting around $111,000, it is possible that the altcoin could suffer a crash below $200 before finding its footing once again.
