Is SOL’s Price-Network Divergence a Red Flag?

While Solana’s daily active addresses dropped more than 80%, the price of SOL still surged over 100%. This raises the question of whether SOL’s price rally is driven by trading sentiment rather than fundamentals.

The article highlights analysts’ warnings about this divergence and the reasons behind it.

Solana’s Network Activity Drops Sharply Over the Past Four Months

Maksim, founder of Santiment, pointed out that despite the rising SOL price, network activity—including active addresses and network growth—has slowed.

Since May, daily active addresses have fallen from 6 million to just 1 million, and network growth has also declined from 4.9 million to 1 million.

The accompanying chart shows a classic bearish divergence: price climbs while on-chain metrics move in the opposite direction.

Maksim noted that historically, this pattern often signals a trend reversal and could serve as a warning for investors.

Santiment’s report added that based on historical data, such patterns usually lead to a sharp reversal, with about a 90% probability.

BeInCrypto also reported that Solana DEX traders have dropped by 90% over the past year, reflecting weaker demand for tokens within the Solana ecosystem.

Market Sentiment Toward SOL Remains Positive

Despite falling network activity, SOL’s price has climbed from below $100 in April to above $200, according to BeInCrypto.

Traders ignore negative on-chain signals and continue buying SOL, expecting further price gains.

Several top asset managers—including Fidelity, VanEck, and Franklin Templeton—recently amended their Solana ETF filings with the SEC. Analysts estimate the probability of approval now exceeds 90%. Market forecasts suggest a Solana ETF could attract up to $8 billion in inflows.

SOL has also become part of the wave of strategic crypto reserves. Public companies such as Sharps Technology, Artelo Biosciences, and Ispecimen have raised hundreds of millions to build strategic SOL reserves.

Despite weakening network activity, these drivers may have supported SOL’s upward momentum in the spot market.

‘Groundbreaking’: Barry Silbert Reacts to Approval of ETF with XRP Exposure

‘Groundbreaking’: Barry Silbert Reacts to Approval of ETF with XRP Exposure

The post ‘Groundbreaking’: Barry Silbert Reacts to Approval of ETF with XRP Exposure appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. A “combo” ETF  Crypto ETF trailblazer  Digital Currency Group founder Barry Silbert has reacted to the approval of the Grayscale Digital Large Cap Fund  (GDLC), the very first multi-crypto exchange-traded fund (ETF), describing it as “groundbreaking.”  “Grayscale continues to be the first mover, driving new product innovations that bridge tradfi and digital assets,” Silbert said while commenting on the news.  Peter Mintzberg, chief executive officer at Graysacle, claims that the team behind the world’s leading cryptocurrency asset manager is working “expeditiously” in order to bring the product to the market.  A “combo” ETF  The ETF in question offers exposure to Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), as well as several other major altcoins, including the Ripple-linked XRP token, Solana (SOL), and Cardano (ADA). XRP, for instance, has a 5.2% share of the fund, making it the third-largest constituent.  The fund initially debuted as a private placement for accredited investors back in early 2018, and its shares later became available on over-the-counter (OTC) markets.  In early July, the SEC approved the conversion of GDLC into an ETF, but it was then abruptly halted for a “review” shortly after this.  As of Sept. 17, the fund currently has a total of $915.6 million in assets.  Crypto ETF trailblazer  It is worth noting that Grayscale is usually credited with kickstarting the cryptocurrency ETF craze by winning its court case against the SEC.  The SEC ended up approving Bitcoin ETFs in early 2024 and then followed up with Ethereum ETFs.  Grayscale’s flagship GBTC currently boasts more than $20.5 billion in net assets, according to data provided by SoSoValue.  Source: https://u.today/groundbreaking-barry-silbert-reacts-to-approval-of-etf-with-xrp-exposure
