  • SOL price at $197.78 with a market capitalization of $106.98 billion, supported at $200 and resisted at $215.

Solana (SOL) has demonstrated impressive resilience, maintaining strength while most major cryptocurrencies declined. On August 29, SOL surged above $210 and peaked at $218 before briefly falling below $200.

Technical readings imply that Solana’s downturn is a corrective move instead of a negative one. Analysts note that the pullback can form a strong foundation for yet another breakout. Despite broader market uncertainty, SOL’s movement indicates a consolidating phase instead of weakness and is poised to lead the charge once favorable circumstances come together to favor an upside move.

Solana currently exchanges at about $197.09, which is down 3.56% on the day, with a market cap varies at $106.98 billion. Although day figures appear discouraging, Solana’s broader performance continues to highlight relative strength compared to peers, reinforcing confidence among long-term investors.

Solana Price Faces Key $200 Support

According to a recent post, $SOL emerged as the most mentioned ticker in the past hour, signaling heightened market attention. Solana is currently within a bearish trend and is trading below the 5, 10, and 20-hour moving averages. Analysts note a strong support at roughly $200 and the resistance at roughly $215.

Technicals are weak, and the RSI is moving downwards, and the MACD is showing bearish momentum, indicating possible further declines if it fails at support. Traders are observing these levels closely for potential market responses.

SOL Momentum Could Reach $240

Analyst RLinda emphasized that the correction is not a reversal. It is instead consolidation in a healthy pattern. He expects a liquidity test between $202.5 and $195.3. Preserving the $200 support zone intact may keep Solana on its positive trajectory despite temporary volatility and confusing trading action.

In case the support around $200 is maintained, SOL may go up to $215 again and later surpass $220. Analyst RLinda said that the small drop is similar to a pause in the trend, not a turnaround. 

If $200 zone remains intact, Solana could likely take the positive trend back with a move toward $240 becoming possible within the next several days. Although the correction period is not yet over, the fact that SOL has managed to stay strong and has attracted investors’ attention to lead the next market uptrend once the ongoing correction concludes.

The Channel Factories We’ve Been Waiting For

The post The Channel Factories We’ve Been Waiting For appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Visions of future technology are often prescient about the broad strokes while flubbing the details. The tablets in “2001: A Space Odyssey” do indeed look like iPads, but you never see the astronauts paying for subscriptions or wasting hours on Candy Crush.  Channel factories are one vision that arose early in the history of the Lightning Network to address some challenges that Lightning has faced from the beginning. Despite having grown to become Bitcoin’s most successful layer-2 scaling solution, with instant and low-fee payments, Lightning’s scale is limited by its reliance on payment channels. Although Lightning shifts most transactions off-chain, each payment channel still requires an on-chain transaction to open and (usually) another to close. As adoption grows, pressure on the blockchain grows with it. The need for a more scalable approach to managing channels is clear. Channel factories were supposed to meet this need, but where are they? In 2025, subnetworks are emerging that revive the impetus of channel factories with some new details that vastly increase their potential. They are natively interoperable with Lightning and achieve greater scale by allowing a group of participants to open a shared multisig UTXO and create multiple bilateral channels, which reduces the number of on-chain transactions and improves capital efficiency. Achieving greater scale by reducing complexity, Ark and Spark perform the same function as traditional channel factories with new designs and additional capabilities based on shared UTXOs.  Channel Factories 101 Channel factories have been around since the inception of Lightning. A factory is a multiparty contract where multiple users (not just two, as in a Dryja-Poon channel) cooperatively lock funds in a single multisig UTXO. They can open, close and update channels off-chain without updating the blockchain for each operation. Only when participants leave or the factory dissolves is an on-chain transaction…
