Solana News: SOL Faces Liquidity Crunch as $500M in Longs Sit on the Brink

The post Solana News: SOL Faces Liquidity Crunch as $500M in Longs Sit on the Brink appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Key Insights On-chain insights suggest Solana liquidity has thinned to levels typically seen in a bear market. Institutional capital continues to pour into spot Solana ETFs, which have seen $17.72 million in net inflows this week, almost matching last week’s $20.30 million. Roughly $500 million in long positions could be exposed if the price slips just 5.5%. On-chain insights suggest Solana’s liquidity has thinned to levels typically seen in a bear market.

If the current pattern mirrors April’s setup, a market reignition could take about four more weeks, potentially lining up with early January. The reset is being driven by several factors. Realized losses are prompting sell-offs, futures open interest is declining, market-makers are pulling back, and liquidity is fragmenting across trading pools. The mid- to long-term outlook for the market remains slightly bullish, particularly if macroeconomic pressures ease. In the near term,…
