- SOL is testing $250 resistance, with analysts eyeing a breakout toward $500–$1,000 in the next bull cycle.
- Whale wallet HsYrgw accumulated 11,233 SOL ($2.75M) after a prior $16M withdrawal, signaling renewed buying.
- Corporate treasuries surged past $4.3B, with Forward Industries, Pantera Capital, and others expanding multi-billion SOL holdings.
Solana’s price is creeping closer to the $250 breakout zone, and traders are buzzing. After a 34% gain in the past month, analysts say a push past this resistance could unlock a mega rally, maybe even a run toward $500 — or higher if momentum holds.
Breakout Watch
On the long-term chart, Solana is shaping up what looks like a cup-and-handle, with $250 acting as the lid that bulls need to crack. Analyst Crypto Elias argued that a clean move above that line could trigger a rocket ride straight to $500. Meanwhile, CryptoPatel pointed to a breakout from a multi-year descending channel, even daring to call for $1,000 SOL during the next big bull run, possibly in 2026.
Whales Are Back
Supporting the optimism, blockchain sleuths at Arkham flagged fresh whale activity. A wallet tagged HsYrgw just picked up 11,233 SOL (roughly $2.75M) — this only a week after yanking 101,974 SOL worth $16M off an exchange. Renewed accumulation at these levels adds fuel to the “breakout ahead” narrative.
Corporate Treasuries Climb
Institutions are stacking too. Data from the Strategic Solana Reserve tracker shows corporate treasuries now top $4.3B, holding around 17 million SOL (about 3% of total supply). Forward Industries leads the pack with 6.8M SOL ($1.61B) and even announced a $4B financing program to expand its stash. Others like Pantera Capital ($1.1B in SOL), Sharps Technology, DeFi Dev Corp., and Solmate all disclosed hundreds of millions in holdings.
Even Classover Holdings jumped in with a $550M purchase plan, backed by Solana Growth Ventures LLC. If whales and treasuries keep stacking, it’s hard not to think Solana’s setting up for something big.
