Solana slipped below $105, with SOL trading at $102.91 after a 15.90% weekly drop. CoinShares said in a weekly update that crypto investment products saw $1.7 billion of outflows, turning year-to-date flows to a $1 billion global outflow. Flows were led by $1.65 billion from the US, while short Bitcoin products drew $14.5 million.

On January 29, 2026, 21Shares listed the Jito Staked SOL ETP (JSOL) on Euronext Amsterdam and Paris, offering Solana exposure with liquid staking yield and a 0.99% TER. The product tracks JitoSOL and is tradable in USD and EUR, while analysts highlight resistance near $140 and $180 with potential targets up to $250.

Solana's validator set has contracted from around 2,500 nodes to fewer than 800, intensifying worries that stake is concentrating in large zero-fee operators. Many smaller validators report that reduced stake-pool income and a roughly 50% drop in foundation matching have pushed their operations into sustained losses, while SOL's price remains range-bound around $125.97 with key levels between $120 and $150 in focus.

Digital asset investment products attracted $2.17 billion in new money over the last week, the largest weekly inflow since October 2025, even as macro headlines weighed on sentiment. Bitcoin led with $1.55 billion, while Ethereum saw $496 million and Solana $45.5 million, though SOL's spot price slipped to about $133.6 amid whale activity and technical resistance near $145.

On January 15 (ET), Ethereum spot ETFs recorded $164 million in net inflows, extending a four‑session streak as Bitcoin vehicles added $100 million the prior day. SOL traded at $143.34, up 0.75% on 24 hours and 2.64% week‑over‑week, while analysts highlighted $147 as a pivot for potential moves toward $155 and possibly $170.

An anonymous 4chan poster known for previous Bitcoin cycle calls has outlined fresh macro targets, projecting BTC at $200,000, ETH at $10,000 and SOL at $1,000 in 2026. The outlook ties these levels to shifting liquidity dynamics and rotation into higher-risk assets, while Solana’s recent move to around $141, with support defended near $128–$131, keeps technical sentiment constructive despite moderating network growth.

Solana has introduced the v3.0.14 validator client for Mainnet-Beta, urging both staked and unstaked nodes to upgrade to enhance network resilience. At the same time, SOL trades around $135 with analysts watching $145 as a pivot and $187 as key resistance before February. Broader roadmap upgrades, including Firedancer and Alpenglow, aim to boost scalability while price structure signals compression and potential upside toward higher psychological levels.

On January 9, Solana's market setup drew attention as its spot ETFs showed no net flows while remaining net positive since December 4, 2025, even as major Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs saw sizeable outflows. SOL traded near $136 with a modest daily loss but a weekly gain, while analysts highlighted a long-term wedge pattern, key price levels at $222, $315, and $413, and on-chain whale withdrawals that together outline a potential trajectory toward $1,000. These structural, technical, and on-chain signals pointed to possible medium-term upside despite short-term volatility.

DeFi Development Corp, a Nasdaq-listed firm, is reallocating part of its Solana treasury into on-chain yield strategies through a partnership with Hylo to generate recurring returns and support operations. At the same time, Solana trades around $137.95 with a market cap near $78 billion, while technical analysts point to a bull flag pattern that could imply a potential move toward $1,500 if price breaks above the $200–$220 zone.
