Can It Repeat The Feat By Christmas?"},"content":{"rendered":"

The Solana price has skyrocketed 156% in one month to hit an 18-month high as the asset traded up almost 11% in the past 24 hours at <\/span>$56.08<\/span><\/a> as of 7:28 a.m. EST.<\/span><\/p>\n

The extraordinary rise comes despite the drag from the sale of FTX estate assets. Fears that these sales would weigh heavily on SOL’s price are giving way to optimism that the potential impact of the event may have been overblown.<\/p>\n

Solana Price And FTX Asset Sales<\/span><\/h2>\n

FTX is set to offload trust fund assets worth $744 million, comprising holdings from Grayscale Investments and Bitwise. This move comes after a September court approval to gradually liquidate nearly $3.4 billion in digital assets. <\/span><\/p>\n

On November 3, FTX’s debtors <\/span>petitioned<\/span><\/a> the court for permission to sell these trust assets in anticipation of forthcoming payouts to creditors. These assets comprise a $53 million Bitwise trust and five Grayscale trusts totaling $691 million, offering investors exposure to cryptocurrencies without direct ownership. <\/span><\/p>\n

The debtors have sought approval from investment advisors for the sales and proposed the establishment of a stakeholder-led price committee to oversee the process. To prevent market disruption, the court-mandated the sale of these assets in increments of $50 million and $100 million, following the earlier authorization to liquidate crypto holdings.<\/span><\/p>\n

Solana Price: Technical Analysis<\/h2>\n

Looking at the 1-hour SOL\/USD <\/span>charts<\/span><\/a>, the Relative Strength Indicator has exited the overbought as the Solana price faces corrections. The MACD indicator also moves in the red zone, indicating bearishness on the Solana price. <\/span><\/p>\n

These point toward a slump in the Solana price in the short term as holders now look to capitalize on the made profits, which will likely cause selling pressure.<\/span><\/p>\n

The 20-day moving average has exceeded the 10-day moving average to form a death cross, according to 45-minute SOL\/USD charts. This shows bearishness on the Solana price as a price plunge looms.<\/span><\/p>\n

We also see several bullish engulfing candle stick patterns forming, indicating a reversal pattern on the recent surge in the Solana price. <\/span><\/p>\n

Solana’s volatility levels are currently high, as shown by the Bollinger bands, which are wide apart. These levels will likely remain high due to the increase in trading activities that have seen the trading volume skyrocket by 38% in a day.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

While technical analysis suggests caution, SOL’s seemingly defied gravity for a while now and it’s not inconceivable that the uptrend will continue given that the token has already soared more than 450% so far this year. Crypto market sentiment also has turned more bullish on optimism surrounding spot Bitcoin ETF approvals, providing another tail wind for SOL’s price.<\/span><\/p>\n
