Points of Focus
- SOL traded at $75.69 on Tuesday, still below $78.7 resistance.
- Solana has gone 30 months without a network-wide outage after its Feb. 6, 2024 halt.
- Solana ETFs drew $8.8 million, the strongest daily inflow since May 12.
Solana (SOL) traded at $75.69 on Tuesday, up about 2.8% over the past seven days, as the network marked 30 consecutive months without a network-wide outage. The uptime milestone strengthens Solana’s reliability case, but SOL remains below the $78.7 resistance level that has capped the latest recovery.
Solana uptime holds through heavy network activity
Solana’s outage history gives the 30-month milestone added context. Its last network-wide outage struck on Feb. 6, 2024, when a bug in the LoadedPrograms function triggered an infinite loop and halted consensus for 4 hours and 46 minutes. By June 2025, the Solana Foundation was reporting 16 months of continuous uptime.
The streak also covered periods of heavy use. The Foundation said Solana processed several days above 200 million daily transactions during a January 2025 activity surge without network downtime. That gives the 30-month figure more weight than an uptime streak achieved under light demand.

SOL price still faces resistance near $78
SOL has yet to match the network milestone with a technical breakout. Ali Martinez identified $78.7 as resistance on the daily setup, while Barchart placed Solana’s 100-day moving average at $79.51 and its 200-day average at $98.40 on Aug. 8. With the first two levels clustered near each other, the $78 to $80 range remains the immediate resistance zone for SOL.
Uptime reduces an operational risk that followed Solana through earlier cycles, but it doesn’t create token demand by itself. SOL still needs follow-through from spot demand or ETF flows before the network milestone carries more weight in the price structure.
Solana ETF inflows add support to the recovery
One demand measure improved this week. Santiment reported on Aug. 11 that Solana ETFs had recorded $8.8 million in daily net inflows, the strongest reading since May 12 after roughly three months of subdued activity. The timing gives SOL a second data point alongside the uptime milestone, though one strong ETF session is too limited to establish a broader flow trend.
📈 Solana just saw $8.8M in daily net ETF inflows. That’s the strongest amount of money moving into ETF’s since May 12th, after several quiet sessions with little movement the past 3 months.
