Solana (SOL) has retested a crucial resistance level after recovering the $150 level over the weekend. The surge, fueled by the upcoming launch of a SOL-based staked exchange-traded fund (ETF), has led some analysts to forecast a rally toward the next key target.

Solana Staked ETFs Coming On Wednesday
On Monday, Solana’s price soared to a key resistance level following the introduction of “the first-ever Solana staked crypto ETF in the US.” Rex Shares announced it will launch a Solana-based staked ETF this Wednesday, aiming to offer exposure to SOL and staking rewards.
According to the X post, the REX-Osprey ETF will track SOL’s performance while “generating yield through on-chain staking,” starting a “new era of yield-generating crypto exposure.” As a result, Solana climbed to the $160 barrier, which led to nearly $9 million in short positions liquidated on Monday afternoon.
Market Watcher Daan Crypto Trades considers Solana “bounced nicely over the weekend” but has yet to turn the Low Timeframe (LTF) trend around. He explained that reclaiming the $159-$167 area is necessary to aim for higher levels.
Additionally, the Daily 200-day Moving Average (MA) and Exponential Moving Average (EMA) are currently located within this range. “I would want to see price trade back above that to start targeting the $180-$200 region again,” he detailed.
Nonetheless, the trader questioned whether a Solana spot ETF-driven rally will fuel the cryptocurrency’s run. Notably, multiple investment firms, including Grayscale, VanEck, 21Shares, and Bitwise, have filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to launch a spot SOL ETF in the US.
According to recent reports, the investment products have a “high likelihood” of being approved in the coming weeks, which has seemingly fueled investors’ expectations of a bullish “Solana Summer.”
“The big question is how much demand there will be,” Daan asserted, noting that Ethereum (ETH) sport ETFs, approved in July 2024, had a disappointing launch and “only started seeing decent inflows about a year later.”
SOL Ready For Another Breakout?
Following the ETF-fueled breakout, analyst Hardy noted Solana’s “Textbook move, clean breakout, clean retest, and pump,” which could trigger a run toward the $200 barrier. Notably, the cryptocurrency saw a remarkable performance over the weekend, reclaiming the $144-$148 crucial area and breaking past the $150 mark.
Amid this performance, the analyst highlighted that Solana had broken out of its local downtrend line after reclaiming the $148 resistance and was retesting the breakout zone. He explained that there is “Juicy liquidity sitting above, ready to be taken,” adding that Solana needed to hold the $150 support to continue its bullish run toward the next target.

Meanwhile, analyst Crypto Batman considers that Solana is “setting up very nicely” after the $160 retest. Per the post, “It has broken out from a bullish flag pattern that bottomed at the 0.618 Fibonacci level, a clear sign of impulsive strength in the trend.”
It’s worth noting that SOL has been trading within the bullish formation since the May breakout, hovering between the $130 and $180 range for nearly two months. The analyst forecasted that a quick retest to close the bullish Fair Value Gap (FVG) and the pattern’s upper boundary, around the $148 area, “could set the stage for the next leg.”
As of this writing, Solana is trading at $155, a 2% increase in the daily timeframe.
