- SOL’s Wild October Ride: Solana’s price surged above $250 to multi-month highs in early October before a sharp pullback. It jumped ~9% to ~$227 in the first week of “Uptober” (its highest since January) ts2.tech, then plunged ~17% intraday on Oct. 10 to the low-$180s amid volatile profit-taking ts2.tech. As of Oct. 10, SOL trades around $182 ts2.tech – roughly flat on the week and still way up in 2025 overall.
- Hidden Bullish Signal: Technical charts flashed a hidden bullish divergence – price made higher lows as RSI made lower lows – hinting the uptrend isn’t over pintu.co.id pintu.co.id. The last time Solana saw a similar setup (Apr–June), SOL rocketed ~63% in a month pintu.co.id. If SOL repeats that fractal, analysts say it could reach ~$312 by late October pintu.co.id pintu.co.id, potentially even $349 thereafter pintu.co.id. On-chain data agree: short-term holder NUPL is ~0.11, signaling healthy profit-taking rather than a euphoric top pintu.co.id. (Prior local peaks came when NUPL hit ~0.20 pintu.co.id.) In short, no signs of an overheated market yet, reinforcing the bullish thesis 1 .
- ETF Mania & $345 Target: Multiple spot Solana ETF applications (VanEck, Fidelity, Grayscale, etc.) faced SEC deadlines in early/mid-October binance.com. Crypto pundits dubbed it a “big week for Solana,” with the final SEC decision due by Oct. 16 binance.com. Approval is widely expected – Bloomberg’s ETF experts gave ~100% odds binance.com and prediction markets >99% binance.com. Analysts say a green light could unleash billions in institutional demand, accelerating SOL toward the $300–$350 range binance.com binance.com. Technical patterns already show two bullish “flag” formations pointing to price targets of ~$290 and ~$345 – roughly +25% and +50% upside respectively 2 3
