Solana (SOL) has fallen to a multi-year low of $64. SOL had an amazing performance in 2025. 2026, on the other hand, appears to be going in the opposite direction. According to CoinGecko, Solana (SOL) price has fallen nearly 9% in the past 24 hours and has fallen more than 58% since June 2025. The asset is also down 78% from its all-time high of $293.31. SOL reached its highest price on January 19, 2026. We discuss the factors behind Solana (SOL)’s price crash and whether the asset can recover from the drop.
Solana Price Crash: What’s Happening?
The last time Solana (SOL) traded in the $20s was in September 2023. The $57-$59 price range provides some support for the asset. The SOL may experience a decline to these levels before starting a sideways trajectory.
The cryptocurrency market began its downward trajectory in May 2026. Inflation was higher than expected. Rising inflation has reduced the likelihood of rate cuts. This development resulted in capital outflows from high-risk assets. Solana (SOL) and other cryptocurrencies appear to be bearing the brunt of this problem.
The escalation of the conflict between the US and Iran has further heightened investors’ concerns. The closure of the Strait of Hormuz could disrupt oil supplies. This development could further strain the global economy.
Another factor that could be impacting Solana (SOL) and the larger crypto market is its upcoming IPO in the US. SpaceX, Anthropic, and OpenAI are each headed for initial public offerings. Liquidity may be draining from the crypto market to facilitate IPOs.
Will my assets be recovered?
Solana (SOL) has proven its robustness over the past few years. After the FTX collapse in 2022, the asset fell below $10. Solana (SOL) has hit multiple all-time highs since its 2022 low. Given past performance, wealth is likely to recover if the broader economy improves. Risk appetite is currently quite low, with AI-based stocks eating up most of the market’s liquidity. Things could change in the second half of 2026.
