Solana Clings To Critical Multi-Year Support As Breakout Pressure BuildsSolana is approaching a pivotal moment as price continues to defend a key multi-year support zone near the $79 level. After months of consolidation and repeated failed breakouts, growing signs of accumulation are now fueling speculation that SOL could be preparing for its next major upside attempt. SOL’s $79 Support Emerges As The Most Critical Level On The Weekly Chart Strategist Scient identifies two critical price levels that define Solana’s macro landscape: the 2024 low at $79 and the impulsive high at $210. This $210 level is particularly significant, as it marks the peak of the 2021 altseason. Since that time, the market has attempted to reclaim this threshold on three separate occasions, only to be met with rejection each time. Related Reading: Solana Price Structure Suggests Temporary Recovery Before Next Major Decision The narrative of these failed breakouts reveals a challenging multi-year structure, with the second rejection, originating from the 2024 lows, igniting a year-long consolidation phase that culminated in a third failed attempt in September 2025. Following that final setback, selling pressure intensified, leading to a swift retracement to the 2024 low, where accumulation has been ongoing. SOL’s price action is exhibiting clear signs of accumulation while hovering near these historical lows, which sets the stage for a potential breakout attempt. Interestingly, Scient notes a poetic irony in the current setup: if SOL successfully establishes a bottom at the $80 level, it would mirror the historical support Ethereum found during its previous bear market cycle. The $79–$80 zone serves as the line in the sand for Solana’s structural integrity. As long as the price maintains this support, the bullish setup remains intact. However, a breach below this level could trigger a significant drawdown toward the mid-$20s. With the price currently trading above this vital support, the setup allows investors to position their bets cautiously within this critical consolidation range. Solana Breaks Out Of Macro Downtrend On The Daily Chart Complementing the weekly outlook, Scient’s secondary analysis of the daily chart highlights a pivotal shift in Solana’s macro structure. The asset has decisively broken out of its long-standing macro downtrend, effectively flipping the trend to the upside. This marks a second bullish retest of this broken trendline, yielding a clean bounce that serves as textbook confirmation for technical traders. Related Reading: Solana To $500? Why Bulls Think AI Could Change The SOL Story This bullish momentum is further validated by the volume profile, of which a significant portion of it from the previous highs has been absorbed, with current market activity showing a concentration at these levels. From current levels, there is little resistance leading up to the $120 mark, creating a clean runway for the price. This lack of overhead supply suggests the market is positioned to move swiftly through this vacuum with minimal selling pressure. When these daily developments are synthesized with the broader weekly context, the resulting setup becomes increasingly compelling. Featured image from Adobe Stock, chart from Tradingview.com

Analyst Compares This Bitcoin Bear Market To Previous Cycles To Show What’s Coming NextBitcoin (BTC) has survived multiple bull and bear market cycles since it began trading, and each time the market collapsed, a new rally eventually followed. That recurring four-year cyclical pattern has given many investors deep confidence that history will repeat itself. However, after studying the same past cycle patterns, market expert CryptoCon has reached a different conclusion. He has highlighted two possibilities, suggesting that the four-year cycle theory may either be playing out behind the scenes or that this market could be a failed cycle. How This Bitcoin Bear Market Compares To Past Ones In a recent X post, CryptoCon has drawn parallels between the current Bitcoin cycle and past ones, in which prices explode to new all-time highs and then enter a prolonged bear trend that shakes out investors and triggers fear and panic selling. The analyst noted that, when comparing the current bear market by size to previous ones, he believes the market is nowhere near the level of despair and chaos that historically marks a true bottom. Related Reading: Bitcoin Bearish Flag Goes Up As Expert Analyst Predicts A Massive Crash To $44,000 CryptoCon has stated that people are now too desperate to turn BTC’s ongoing downtrend into a buying opportunity. He also warned that the enthusiasm around accumulating at lower prices is premature and could be potentially dangerous. At the core of his analysis, CryptoCon challenges the historical Halving Cycle theory. The theory basically suggests that Bitcoin strictly follows a predictable four-year boom-and-bust pattern tied to its supply dynamics. He shared a chart, noting that this four-year trend has recurred often enough to become widely followed by investors and analysts. However, the analyst posed a thought-provoking question. He noted that if millions of people now know about this pattern and are all waiting to buy the dip, expecting a new all-time high, why would the trend “continue to repeat?” His answer is that the Bitcoin cycle tends to protect itself by using different narratives to hide its pattern in plain sight. The analyst emphasized that narratives such as interest rates, recessions, super cycles, and business cycle theories tend to dominate the market with each passing cycle. He said each one creates enough noise that the underlying halving cycle pattern stays well hidden, and by the time most people recognize the trend, they get caught off guard by the price changes it produces. Analyst Says BTC Could Be In A Failed Cycle Another unsettling aspect of CryptoCon’s analysis, which he says no one appears to be considering, is the possibility that the current Bitcoin cycle may be a failed one. He suggested a scenario in which BTC defies the entire halving and four-year cycle theory by entering a bear market and then failing to reach a new all-time high. Related Reading: This Bitcoin Pattern Could Repeat Itself, But The Bottom Could Lie Below $50,000 CryptoCon believes that this scenario is genuinely possible, particularly because market returns continue to shrink across each successful Bitcoin cycle. To put that into perspective, he compared the shift in trend to gold’s movement after the 1980s gold rush. He noted that during that period, gold had quietly declined for about 30 years before eventually reaching new highs. He said he is not predicting the same fate for BTC this cycle, as he believes that the cryptocurrency could eventually recover and resume its upward trend to new ATH levels.
