First Solana ETFs to Launch in the U.S.

A major catalyst driving SOLs bullish momentum is the upcoming launch of the first-ever Solana ETFs in the United States. Florida-based Volatility Shares LLC is set to introduce two ETFs tracking Solana futures on Thursday, marking a historic step for the asset.

The Volatility Shares Solana ETF (SOLZ) is designed to track Solana futures, providing a regulated investment option for both institutional and retail investors.

Meanwhile, the Volatility Shares 2X Solana ETF (SOLT) is a leveraged ETF that offers twice the exposure to Solanas price movements, catering to traders seeking amplified returns.

Both ETFs, which come with expense ratios of 0.95% and 1.85%, were first proposed in December and have now received regulatory approval. This launch places SOL alongside Bitcoin and Ethereum, which already have ETF products, potentially increasing its adoption, trading volume, and institutional interest.

Solana Targets $186 if Breakout Above $144 Succeeds

Solanas price action remains strong, with a recent weekly close above the key support at $116, indicating further upside potential. Market experts have highlighted critical levels that could influence the next move.

The mid-range resistance at $143.8 serves as a key hurdle, where a breakout could trigger a stronger rally. If momentum continues, SOL could reach the range high of $186.9, marking the ultimate upside target

In the near term, SOL is expected to climb toward the $144 level before potentially retracing to test lower support zones. Two possible trading scenarios could unfold based on price action.

A bullish breakout may occur if SOL secures a weekly close above $144, confirming an extended rally toward $186. On the other hand, a retest of the range low could see SOL dipping between $100 and $105, presenting a buying opportunity with price targets set at $143 and $186.

Given the high time frame (HTF) analysis, traders are advised to use low leverage or focus on spot trading to manage risk effectively.

With the launch of Solana ETFs in the U.S., institutional demand for SOL is expected to surge, adding liquidity and price momentum to the asset. Combined with strong technical signals, SOL appears on the verge of a major rally, making it a cryptocurrency to watch closely in the coming weeks.
