  • Solana (SOL) maintains key support near $128, indicating strength despite short-term fluctuations.

  • Analysts highlight possible support retest around $119–$123, reinforcing positive trend structure.

Solana (SOL) is showing strength as it holds key support levels despite recent short-term fluctuations. Technical analysts believe the recent pullback was intentional rather than a true breakdown, keeping the overall price structure intact. This suggests that the trend remains tilted towards further upside.

Solana Holds Support Signaling Bullish Move

A crypto analyst, Alpha Crypto Signal, has pointed out that the major support level for the Solana coin is still holding despite the temporary drop below that level. While some people saw this as a breakdown of support, the crypto analyst believes that this is simply a shakeout.

Describing this move in relation to market theory suggested by Richard D. Wyckoff, Alpha Crypto Signal referred to such a move as “Spring,” which is a temporary move beneath support to trigger sell stops for a subsequent bullish reversal.

Typically, in the past, such pricing action has led to a bullish response. Seeing that the level of support has continued to hold following such pricing action is normally an indication of strength, meaning the likelihood of further gains is high. Solana’s structure would still be in favor of higher pricing as long as it remains above the major support zone.

Solana Price Eyes Support Retest

Adding to this outlook, More Crypto Online explained the price structure of Solana in detail as follows: It mentioned the five-wave advance of SOL’s price from the Thursday, December 18 low to the Friday, December 19 high. The fall was in three waves, thus representing a correction.

The latest Sunday low is still emerging. In a structural context, a sound retest of the support level at $118.99-$123.47 would not counter the positive scenario; it would, in fact, help to establish the wave count for the continuation.

The analyst also pointed out that large market leaders are responsible for the trend. If Bitcoin or Ethereum start moving upward, SOL follows despite its poor short-term structure. In the smaller time frame, the recent move appears corrective; therefore, another support test may occur.

Overall, analysts believe that Solana’s structure remains positive despite the possible temporary correction to the level of support. If the levels hold, SOL’s future trend remains on the upside, not a large downturn.

3 Paradoxes of Altcoin Season in September

3 Paradoxes of Altcoin Season in September

The post 3 Paradoxes of Altcoin Season in September appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Analyses and data indicate that the crypto market is experiencing its most active altcoin season since early 2025, with many altcoins outperforming Bitcoin. However, behind this excitement lies a paradox. Most retail investors remain uneasy as their portfolios show little to no profit. This article outlines the main reasons behind this situation. Altcoin Market Cap Rises but Dominance Shrinks Sponsored TradingView data shows that the TOTAL3 market cap (excluding BTC and ETH) reached a new high of over $1.1 trillion in September. Yet the share of OTHERS (excluding the top 10) has declined since 2022, now standing at just 8%. OTHERS Dominance And TOTAL3 Capitalization. Source: TradingView. In past cycles, such as 2017 and 2021, TOTAL3 and OTHERS.D rose together. That trend reflected capital flowing not only into large-cap altcoins but also into mid-cap and low-cap ones. The current divergence shows that capital is concentrated in stablecoins and a handful of top-10 altcoins such as SOL, XRP, BNB, DOG, HYPE, and LINK. Smaller altcoins receive far less liquidity, making it hard for their prices to return to levels where investors previously bought. This creates a situation where only a few win while most face losses. Retail investors also tend to diversify across many coins instead of adding size to top altcoins. That explains why many portfolios remain stagnant despite a broader market rally. Sponsored “Position sizing is everything. Many people hold 25–30 tokens at once. A 100x on a token that makes up only 1% of your portfolio won’t meaningfully change your life. It’s better to make a few high-conviction bets than to overdiversify,” analyst The DeFi Investor said. Altcoin Index Surges but Investor Sentiment Remains Cautious The Altcoin Season Index from Blockchain Center now stands at 80 points. This indicates that over 80% of the top 50 altcoins outperformed…
