Solana Hits Critical Make or Break Zone – What’s Next?

Solana has held strong in the past several weeks of crypto market weakness, but the trend seems to be catching up with it fast. It has broken down from its safe $130 hold and is now trading at such a critical zone that losing it may be catastrophic. 

The coin is now sitting just above $123 after breaching the upper limit of the $111-$124 range. A level analysts say is critical for ensuring it stays afloat. This raised pessimism in the crypto space, as many experts say SOL risks a significant drop to alarming levels.

Solana Losing Ground Fast

Solana has managed to hold above $130 despite the uncertainties in the market marked by Bitcoin’s weakness that spread to altcoins. After breaking below $124, it officially entered a critical zone that it has to hold to avoid a quick and steep drop. Analysts highlighted that level as one that must be watched despite bullish sentiments around the coin.

Currently, the price drop isn’t isolated from key fundamentals, making it even more worrisome. Furthermore, data reveals that the number of active addresses on the network has experienced a steep decline from 4.8 million to just 680,000 in 2025. This is similar to what was observed in Bitcoin recently.

According to CryptoQuant, this decline in active addresses is a sign of market slowdown. Which may be a result of low interest from investors. The effect of this decline has been clearly seen in Bitcoin, manifesting in its weakness and inability to rise significantly and break the persistent downward trend. 

If a similar effect plays out for Solana, a steeper price drop may be imminent, which will take some time for the coin to recover from. Analysts had earlier made bearish predictions such as a crash to $24, but this has not played out yet.

What Happens Next for Solana

As it stands, Solana has lost its stronghold and could be heading for some red days ahead. Analysts say the coin is likely to end up under $100 as a result of the breakdown, which may be worsened by the prevailing market sentiment.

On the flipside, the coin needs to reclaim the $124 and inch higher to secure its initially strong momentum. A failure to do this would result in the anticipated sub $100 price drop.
