Solana SOL Drops 12% Amid New Spot ETF Launches and Market Shift

Solana (SOL) Sees 12% Drop Amid $140 Resistance as Six New Spot ETFs Launch

  • The Solana (SOL) cryptocurrency has dropped over 12% this week, facing pressure near $140.
  • Six new spot Solana ETFs launched recently, offering different exposure options for investors.
  • The $130 price level is critical; falling below it could lead SOL down to $100-$105, a level last seen in April.
  • SOL began 2025 strongly, reaching an all-time high of $293.31 on January 19.
  • Fidelity, VanEck, 21Shares, Canary Capital, Bitwise, and Grayscale now offer spot Solana ETFs.

The price of the cryptocurrency Solana (SOL) has decreased by more than 12% in the past week. This decline comes as the U.S. government shutdown ended, with investors hopeful for improvements in the cryptocurrency and stock markets after weeks of losses. SOL currently faces resistance around the $140 price point but started 2025 strong, reaching an all-time high of $293.31 on January 19.

In 2025, Solana has traded consistently above $110, although 2024 was a stronger year overall in performance. A notable development expected to impact SOL positively is the introduction of spot Solana Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs), which were absent in 2024. Recently, six new spot Solana ETFs have launched, each providing diverse exposure models for investors.

Among the new ETFs, 21Shares launched a spot ETF with a competitive 0.21% management fee, following approval from Cboe. Fidelity also introduced the FSOL ETF on NYSE Arca, which includes a staking feature, making it the largest traditional manager with a Solana product. Other providers entering the market include VanEck, Canary Capital, Bitwise, and Grayscale.

The current price action and capital flow divergence has made SOL one of the most monitored tokens in late 2025. At times this year, SOL has been among the best-performing cryptocurrencies based on daily growth charts. This steady performance has positioned SOL as a potential key player in the market.

The $130 price level is crucial for SOL; falling below this could trigger a drop to the $100-$105 range, a level not seen since April 2025. A decline below $100 would represent significant downside risk, as SOL has not traded below this threshold since January 2024.
