Solana Reclaims $80 As $18M Whale Long Tests Market Nerves
Solana (SOL) reclaimed $80 as a $18.81 million whale long and crowded trader positioning put support under fresh pressure.
Key Points:
Solana Whale Long
Solana drew fresh attention after Lookonchain data showed a newly funded wallet opening a 20x leveraged long position of 230,583 SOL, valued at $18.81 million. The trade quickly moved into more than $818,000 in unrealized profit.
Lookonchain also placed the liquidation price at $67.14, giving the position a wide buffer below current levels, although the trade still showed confidence rather than a confirmed market direction.
Large whale positions can shape sentiment.
Binance data showed that 64.71% of top trader accounts held long positions, while 35.29% were short, lifting the Long/Short Ratio to 1.83. The same imbalance supported the bullish case, but it also raised the risk of forced selling if leveraged traders were squeezed near similar levels.

SOL Price Risk
Solana traded near $81.30 after reclaiming the former $78.50 resistance, while buyers continued to defend the $67.39 support zone. The next resistance stood near $88.10.
A move through $88.10 would put the larger $100.87 resistance back in view, where sellers had regained control during earlier rallies.
The 14-day RSI rose to 64.41, above its 50.60 signal average but below the 70 level often linked to overbought conditions.
CoinGlass data placed the largest leveraged liquidity pocket around $80, less than 2% below the market price. A decisive break under that level could sweep the cluster and push SOL toward $77.20, increasing the risk of cascading long liquidations.
The setup leaves $80 as Solana’s near-term line.
SOL can still aim for $88.10 if buyers hold that zone, but a loss of support could turn crowded bullish positioning into forced selling.
Solana’s latest rebound followed a sharp Jun. decline that left traders watching whether higher lows could hold. That recent price swing explains why $80 matters now, because it separates a recovery structure from another failed rally.
