Solana (SOL) is having a monster July, skyrocketing 33% while leaving Bitcoin and Ethereum in the dust. The altcoin just smashed through $200 for the first time since February, with trading volume spiking 87% in 24 hours.

What’s Fueling SOL’s Rally?

💰 Institutional Demand:

• DeFi Development Corp bought 999,999 SOL ($198M) last week
• All newly acquired SOL is immediately staked for passive yield
• CEO confirms no diversification—SOL is their sole crypto play

🚀 Tech Catalyst:

• Jito’s BAM upgrade coming soon (faster transactions, reduced MEV)
• Could turn Solana into a blockspace marketplace

SOL Price Analysis: How High Can It Go?

📈 Current Price: $199.10 (up 5% daily, 24% weekly)
📈 Next Targets: $230–$250 if $200 holds as support
⚠️ Caution: RSI at 81 (overbought), but MACD still bullish

Fun fact: SOL is now just 32.57% away from its all-time high!

The Meme Coin Wildcard

If Pump.fun reignites meme mania on Solana (like it did earlier this year), SOL could go parabolic again.
