SOL price weakness can explained by Solana Network's activity and lack of appetite from derivatives traders.
Despite a brief rally to $151 on June 16, Solana’s native token SOL (SOL) has experienced a 24% correction since June 7. It has underperformed against the total cryptocurrency market capitalization that’s down 14% over the same period.
This suggests that SOL’s issues are more pronounced than the overall market’s reduced interest in cryptocurrencies.
Several indicators, including Solana Network’s on-chain activity and demand for leveraged positions, indicate that SOL's bearish momentum is likely to continue. If demand remains stagnant, this could lead to a retest of the $130 level or lower.
