Solana’s SOL token is currently trading at $78, down 72% from its all-time high of $295. The drop comes during a broader crypto market decline, with geopolitical tensions adding fresh pressure on February 28, 2026.

Israel launched a strike against Iran on Saturday morning local time. The U.S. participated in the attack, according to AP sources. Bitcoin dropped nearly 5% in minutes, falling toward $60,000, and the sell-off hit altcoins including SOL.

Despite the price drop, Solana’s network numbers remain strong. Over the past 30 days, Solana processed $108 billion in DEX volume, ahead of Ethereum’s $63.7 billion and Base’s $31.48 billion.

In the last 24 hours, Solana generated $3.1 million in app revenue versus Ethereum’s $2.95 million. Active addresses on Solana stood at 2.17 million, compared to Ethereum’s 682,236.

Solana’s real-world asset (RWA) sector has reached an all-time high of $1.71 billion, up 45% in 30 days.

SOL ETF Flows Hold Steady

Spot SOL ETFs launched in late October 2025 and pulled in over $100 million in average net inflows during their first five weeks. Weekly inflows have since slowed to $20–$25 million as the price declined.

Cumulative outflows across the four-month drawdown total just $11.3 million over two weeks. Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs, by contrast, logged four consecutive months of negative flows in the same period.

Solana is currently trading well below the $188 level seen at the time of its ETF launch.

Key Support Levels to Watch

Analyst Crypto Scient identified two additional areas. The first is the 0.75 Fibonacci retracement zone between $60 and $70. The second is a weekly demand fair value gap between $22 and $29.

UTXO data from Glassnode shows over 6% of SOL supply last moved within the current price cluster. The next major concentration of supply, above 3%, sits between $20 and $30.

SOL is currently trading below the weekly resistance level of $120. The $51 to $80 zone on the weekly chart has been tested and aligns with the retracement pocket analysts are watching.

On February 28, 2026, SOL was trading at $78 as markets reacted to the Israel-Iran conflict.
