The current price sits just below the 50-day Exponential Moving Average of $94.17. A daily close above that level would open the door to a run toward the 100-day EMA at $109.58.
Momentum indicators are turning positive. The MACD has entered positive territory and the RSI sits at 58, above the midline.
Real-World Asset Growth Supports Solana’s Case
One of the bigger stories behind SOL’s recovery is the growth of real-world asset tokenization on the network. Bitwise estimates tokenized RWAs on Solana have hit roughly $873 million, covering on-chain treasuries, private credit, and yield products.
Spot Solana ETFs, approved in late 2025, have continued attracting capital even during periods of negative price action. These products are now being used by traditional finance investors who want SOL exposure without managing wallets directly.
From March 9 to March 13 (ET), Bitcoin spot ETFs recorded net inflows of $767 million, marking three consecutive weeks of net inflows. Ethereum spot ETFs saw $161 million in net inflows, also extending their three-week inflow streak. SOL spot ETFs posted $10.7 million in net… pic.twitter.com/slBc1GuHw6

On-chain activity backs this up. Active addresses have climbed above 5 million and daily transactions are approaching 87 million.
Network and Supply Context
The Solana validator set now counts more than 2,000 validators by some estimates, though active validators may be closer to 795. The Solana Foundation’s share of staked SOL has dropped from over 40% in 2020 to under 6% by late 2025.
Network inflation runs around 4% annually. About 67% of SOL is currently staked, reducing freely circulating supply.
Funding rates on perpetual swaps are near flat to slightly negative at around −0.0095% per day. That suggests longs are not yet piling in aggressively.
Downside support sits in the $76–$80 range. Major resistance remains near $245–$250, the area of the January peak.
As of now, SOL is trading at approximately $92–$93 with the 50-day EMA at $94.17 acting as the immediate ceiling.
