Points of Focus

  • Solana added $378.2M in 30-day tokenized US Treasury inflows, $106M more than Ethereum.
  • SOL traded at $75.41, near its 20-day and 50-day averages, with $79 still overhead.
  • US spot SOL ETFs added $10.26M last week, adding a second institutional flow signal.

 

 

Solana (SOL) traded at $75.41 on Monday after the network led major blockchains in 30-day tokenized US Treasury inflows. Solana added $378.2 million through Aug. 15, about $106 million more than Ethereum’s $272.2 million. 

Despite the flow lead, SOL remained near $75, leaving the rise in tokenized assets without a clear price breakout.

Solana Treasury inflows beat Ethereum as RWA value reaches $3.9B

The wider tokenized US Treasury market reached $16.23 billion on Aug. 15, up 1.81% over 30 days. Solana recorded the largest net inflows during the period, while Ethereum still accounted for about 43% of outstanding Treasury value. Solana led recent growth, but Ethereum remained the larger market by total value.

Solana’s broader RWA market also reached a record $3.9 billion, according to the network’s Aug. 16 weekly update. The Solana Foundation had reported $3.7 billion in non-stablecoin RWA value and more than 313,000 holders in late July. Its institutional roster includes BlackRock’s BUIDL, Ondo’s Treasury products and State Street Galaxy’s SWEEP fund.

The $378.2 million figure tracks tokenized Treasury assets moving onto Solana, not direct purchases of SOL. Higher RWA activity can increase network use and settlement volume, but it doesn’t translate into an equal amount of spot demand for SOL.

 

Solana price holds near $75 with $79 resistance intact

SOL’s technical setup still shows limited price follow-through from the RWA inflows. Barchart data showed its 20-day moving average near $75.07 and its 50-day average near $74.09, leaving the $75.41 price close to both trend markers.

Direct investment flows offer a second data point. US spot SOL ETFs recorded $10.26 million in net inflows from Aug. 10 through Aug. 14, led by $8.83 million into Bitwise’s BSOL and $1.43 million into Morgan Stanley’s MSOL.

SoSoValue data showed US spot SOL ETFs recorded $10.26 million in net inflows from Aug. 10 through Aug. 14, led by $8.83 million into Bitwise’s BSOL and $1.43 million into Morgan Stanley’s MSOL.

The $74 to $75 zone remains the nearest support, while a move through $79.18 would put SOL above its 100-day moving average. At $75.41, the token trades about 4.8% below that level.
