Solana Jumps Past $153 After First Staking ETF Launch

Dennis Gatheca 3 July 2025
SOLANA IMAGE OF PRICE ANALYSIS
  • Solana rose above $153 after the first U.S. staking ETF launched with $33.6 million in trading volume.
  • Institutional demand and strong technical signals point to more gains ahead.

Solana (SOL) is making headlines once again, surging past the $153 mark after gaining 4.6% in just 24 hours. This price rally follows the debut of the REX-Osprey Solana + Staking ETF — the first staking-focused Solana ETF in the United States. Launched on the Cboe BZX Exchange, the fund immediately attracted $33.6 million in trading volume and $12 million in net inflows, signaling unprecedented institutional demand.

Solana price analysis

Unlike typical spot ETFs, this fund allows investors to earn staking rewards while gaining regulated exposure to Solana. Anchorage Digital, the ETF’s custodian and staking partner, called the launch a milestone for broader crypto access. With $8 million traded within the first 20 minutes, institutions are clearly showing interest in Solana’s staking potential.

Bullish Technical Setup for Solana


Solana’s price is currently above its 50-day Exponential Moving Average, and the Relative Strength Index (RSI) continues to climb. The next resistance points are at $154 and $159, with a breakout target of $187 — a high last seen in May. If SOL continues its uptrend, analysts believe it could reach anywhere between $220 and $500.

Since mid-2022, Solana has followed an upward trendline that has proven resilient during corrections. The recent bounce from $144 reinforces this bullish pattern, with solid support zones at $150, $144, and $125.

Institutional and Corporate Confidence Soars


The ETF’s successful debut aligns with growing institutional participation. Open interest in Solana futures is approaching $7 billion, and analysts at Bloomberg now estimate a 95% chance of a spot Solana ETF by 2025.

Meanwhile, DeFi Development Corp has announced a $100 million convertible note plan to increase its Solana holdings — a strategy similar to corporate Bitcoin treasury moves. This reflects rising confidence in Solana’s long-term value.

Solana Network Fundamentals Remain Strong


Solana’s network continues to impress. It has recorded more than 15 months of uninterrupted uptime, supports over 160 million daily transactions, and led the real economic value (REV) rankings with $551 million in January. With the Alpenglow consensus upgrade in testing, validator costs are expected to drop while finality times improve.


With technical indicators flashing green, institutional appetite growing, and on-chain strength holding firm, Solana seems poised for its next major rally. But with the price still 48% below its all-time high, investors should monitor support zones and tread with caution.
