Solana's price surged about 25% in a week, breaking above $90 following the SEC's new crypto regulatory framework. This triggered a massive $4.6 billion liquidation of short positions over three days, including one of the largest single-day liquidations in crypto history on August 18. The Crypto Fear and Greed Index shifted from neutral to greedy, signaling strong market optimism. Key technical indicators and ETF inflows suggest institutional interest, but analysts watch $83 as a key support amid possible pullbacks.
