Solana Futures ETFs Hit Wall Street — Will SOL Soar Or Crash?

by

Ah, the great and powerful Solana, still reeling from its 50% plunge from its all-time high. 🤯 But fear not, dear investors, for the Volatility Shares LLC is here to save the day (or not) with its two new exchange-traded funds (ETFs) tied to Solana futures! 🎉

These ETFs, which will begin trading today, will track the performance of Solana futures, because who doesn’t love a good game of follow-the-leader? 🤔 And for those feeling extra adventurous, there’s a 2x Solana ETF, because why settle for just a 100% return when you can have 200%? 🤪

But don’t get too excited just yet, folks. The initial enthusiasm for Solana futures is, shall we say, lukewarm. 🥖 The daily trading volume is a mere $12.3 million, a far cry from the Bitcoin and Ethereum futures’ heyday. 🚀

However, research firm K33 points out that this is not necessarily a bad thing. 🤓 After all, Solana’s market capitalization is still a fraction of Bitcoin’s and Ethereum’s, so maybe this is just a normal-sized launch? 🤔

And speaking of normal-sized launches, Solana is currently trading at $131.6, down from its mid-January ATH. 📉 But don’t worry, it’s not all doom and gloom – over the past 24 hours, Solana has gained more than 6%, partly thanks to the Federal Reserve’s decision to slow down its bond runoff program. 🤑

From a technical perspective, the SOL price is approaching the 0.5 Fibonacci retracement level at $133, which closely aligns with the 100-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA) at $133.65. 📊 A daily close above both levels would be considered bullish, opening the possibility of a rally toward the 0.618 Fibonacci retracement at $166.7, which intersects with the 50-day EMA. 🚀 In the longer term, traders are eyeing the mid-January ATH near $296 as a potential target – although conquering the immediate resistance levels remains a critical hurdle. 🚫
