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 Ali Martinez pointed to a Parallel Channel forming on SOL’s weekly chart. Based on this pattern, support levels sit at $50.22, $22.47, and $9.98.

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.
