SOL

ThatChrisGuy7

IMO MONADS money will flow into SOL once some of the early buyers capitulate

coinfeeds-bot

tldr; Recent data shows a high percentage of Bitcoin (BTC), Ether (ETH), and Solana (SOL) held at a loss, but much of this supply is locked in staking, ETFs, or institutional reserves, reducing liquid supply under pressure. For BTC, 35% is held at a loss, but institutional holdings and lost coins lower its liquid float. ETH has 37% at a loss, but over 40% is locked. SOL has 70% at a loss, but 73.6% is staked. These factors suggest the loss percentages overstate potential sell pressure, as much of the supply is not liquid. *This summary is auto generated by a bot and not meant to replace reading the original article.

the only thing that should be seeing an inflow of SOL is the fucking garbage bin

Totally get why you’re asking — SOL feels either like a rocket ship or a roller coaster depending on the week. As a long-term hold, it *can* make sense, but only if you’re okay with pretty violent swings along the way. The chain has real usage, active devs, and solid throughput, but it’s still tied to broader crypto sentiment more than people like to admit. What helped me was deciding on a time horizon and sticking to it. Dollar-cost averaging smooths out a lot of the stress, and keeping a small portion liquid lets you take advantage of those random dips. Also worth paying attention to network stability and fees during peak hype — those say more about long-term health than price does. If you ever need to shuffle assets across chains while you’re managing entries, Rubic has been a convenient option for me, but just one tool among many. Happy to chat about your strategy if you’re weighing SOL against other plays.

No_Piano_4690

Honestly, a dip back to $100 isn’t impossible, but it really depends on broader market sentiment. SOL’s had some big swings before, and when liquidity dries up or macro turns ugly, it tends to retrace hard. At the same time, network activity and dev momentum are still strong, so any drop usually gets bought up pretty fast. What I watch for are BTC dominance shifts, funding rates, and whether SOL’s TVL keeps rising. Those usually give an early hint about deeper corrections. In my case, scaling in during pullbacks has worked better than trying to time a perfect bottom. If you’re moving between chains during volatility, tools like Rubic have made that process smoother for me, but it’s just one option. Happy to dive into the specific indicators you’re watching if you want.

I actually picked SOL first and then diversify into trending narratives like Depin and RWA. Under the Depin, AIOZ and OCEAN are my top picks. As for RWA, ONDO is a top choice.

MonsieurReynard

If I had gotten it back last month it would be worth 20% more though. Either way that’s awesome of course, but if I had needed those savings to pay for my kid’s college tuition a few years ago I would have been SOL. Ans of course cash kept in a consumer savings account would not have appreciated nearly as much. Crypto and cash are different ways of holding wealth. They offer different advantages and disadvantages.

Don’t really think that’s fair given ETH’s ETF launch was while the last bear market was ending while SOL’s ETF didn’t get approved until the current bear market was beginning. You also conveniently leave out that ETH has had significant ETF outflows.

Antique-Worth323

Correct… someone knows what they’re talking about. I’ve used the Bitcoin blockchain and it’s awful, no question. BTC is 7TPS.. and the gas is expensive. But look at tether or Solana. SOL is 65000 transactions per second and cost pennies to send. Crypto is the future.. BTC is like the gold of crypto, is a store of value. I only used the BTC Blockchain to see for myself and it took so long I actually got nervous and checked the Hash like 20 times.

Unlike traditional staking platforms that depend solely on network rewards or inflationary token emissions, Mevolaxy integrates advanced MEV bots designed to capture profitable opportunities across multiple blockchains. These bots monitor price inefficiencies, execute cross chain arbitrage, and react instantly to shifts in market momentum. The result is a more dynamic earning model, where profits come from real blockchain activity rather than unstable token incentives. One of Mevolaxy’s most appealing features is its **fixed daily payout model**, giving users clarity and predictability. The platform uses performance buffers to smooth out volatility, ensuring that weaker trading days don’t directly impact user rewards. This stability is especially valuable for newcomers who want passive income without dealing with the constant uncertainty of typical DeFi yields. Security is a major priority as well. Funds are managed through controlled execution environments and risk optimized strategies, avoiding unnecessary exposure while maximizing yield. Automated rebalancing ensures that capital is deployed efficiently and safely, without over allocating to high risk trades. The onboarding process is intentionally simple: users can connect a wallet, deposit supported tokens such as ETH, SOL, or USDT, and begin earning immediately. This accessibility, combined with strong automation, makes Mevolaxy beginner friendly while still offering the sophistication experienced crypto users look for. As demand grows for passive crypto income that doesn’t rely on speculation or unstable liquidity pools, Mevolaxy’s MEV based approach stands out. By blending automation, risk management, and measurable blockchain strategies, it provides a practical long term solution for users seeking steady returns in both bull and bear markets. Mevolaxy represents a shift toward smarter, more sustainable staking, one where technology, not token inflation, drives the earnings.

Hi Monad people, It seems like there is a but of new L1 malaise currently, with more recent entrants like TIA and SUI and berachain...not doing great. Do you think new technology and consensus methods are enough to drive adoption on yet another L1 and pull folks away from BTC, ETH, or even soylana (which maybe even ETH and SOL suffering the malaise)? What is the goal of the team launching this would you say? To overtake ethereum in users and market cap and usage? Or overtake Bitcoin? Or more like overtake Cardano or SOL?

AryanPachhai

Yeah, it’s rough out there right now. A lot of exchanges either nickel-and-dime you with fees or bury the simple stuff under five layers of menus. I’ve bounced between a few and honestly ended up mixing tools depending on what I’m doing. For basic buying/selling, a CEX with “pro/advanced” mode usually gives better spreads than their beginner UI. For on-chain swaps, I stopped using single DEXs because the prices can be wildly different — an aggregator tends to surface the cheaper route without me hunting around. In my case, Rubic has been easy enough to use for that, and folks in Rubic compare routes if you want to double-check a trade. If you say whether you mostly trade BTC/ETH/SOL or smaller tokens, people can point you toward the cleaner setups.

AryanPachhai

Welcome to the chaos — and congrats on starting with BTC and SOL, that’s a pretty common “starter mix” for a reason. BTC is the boring, steady backbone; SOL is the faster, riskier growth play. Your read on Solana isn’t crazy at all. The chain’s fast, cheap, and actually getting real usage — not just speculation. Devs ship quickly, consumer-facing apps keep popping up, and if Firedancer rolls out smoothly, the throughput jump could be a big deal long term. The flip side is volatility: SOL moves *hard* both ways, so you’ve gotta be okay riding out the dips. For me, the reason I still hold SOL is that the ecosystem feels alive — tons of builders, tons of experimentation. That’s what you want in a long-term bet. When I’m moving in or out of positions, I usually route through an aggregator so I’m not manually checking pools; Rubic’s been fine for that in my case, and people in Rubic share route comparisons pretty often. If you’re long-term minded, just keep learning and DCA instead of chasing pumps.

AryanPachhai

Man, I get that feeling. Solana moves like it’s got a caffeine drip — when it runs, it *runs*, and when it unwinds, it’s just as dramatic. That $100 zone is definitely one of those psychological spots where you can feel sentiment flip, but banking half your life savings on it is a heavy bet no matter how good the chart looks. What’s helped me is thinking less in “one perfect entry” and more in tiers. If it nukes to $100, great — but if it chops at $140, $120, $110 for months, at least you’re not sitting there watching your buy zone slip away. SOL’s volatility cuts both ways, and even strong layer-1s revisit levels you’d swear were gone forever. For tools, I usually check a few aggregators when moving into or out of SOL so I’m not eating unnecessary slippage — Rubic’s been decent for that in my case, and people in Rubic compare routes pretty often. If you’re serious about loading up, maybe map out a few levels instead of one “all-in” moment. Happy to look at your chart if you want a second pair of eyes.

Extreme fear in the market, so more sellers the buyers of the underlying SOL asset. Tokenomics are not that bad, as the token inflation-rate is gradually leveling off as time passes.

Quoting Munger in regard to holding crypto is funny. I only add to BTC and SOL personally, not sell

MundaneSoftware6510

As the market matures and barring game changing events like quantum computing, the days of extreme returns will be over. It will be slow and steady gains. However, we are not quite there yet. There is still room for some rapid growth. Especially in light of QC. Just as a hedge, I put $500.00 into ALGO. If you do the calculations from way back in 2009-2010, that about of money would have turned into hundred of millions today. ALGO is “supposed” to be QC proof. At least that’s what I am hearing. So why not bet on that as a long shot? I did the same with Cardano. Just on the noise I was hearing. Most likely it will go nowhere but if it overcomes its manifest problems then it too can explode. I dumped much much larger amount of money into SOL. Why? Because one can tell how mature a market is becoming by who jumps in. With the five or six new SOL ETF’s achieving some huge inflows in very large chunks, that tells me that there is institutional adoption. The western union deal is another indicator. Could this be massive market manipulation? Yep… but I’m betting on the fundamentals. And the fundamentals for SOL are solid. You can take long shot risks. Just don’t bet the farm on them. Think about BTC and what $500us dropped into it in 2010 would be today. Take a couple of these risks. Then find an alt coin you can get behind with better chances and more upside. All of this being done with no more than 10-20% of your portfolio. The rest keep safe and let it grow slow. Rome wasn’t built in a day. However in 2,000 years of history it had some HUGE jumps. Get in on the ground floor. Let it ride and you might get lucky.

My thoughts gravitate towards the following: - Could whales be tanking the price of tokens by moving them off an exchange to cold wallet(s) they own to report a loss? - Could some major companies have bought a ton of tokens at the beginning of the year, staked them, and sold toward the end of this year to get “free” returns (since staked rewards are a grey area)? - Could I have just been stupid enough to think Solana would have hit $300 this year after buying 2 SOL at $200? 🥲 What are everyone’s thoughts? *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

ADA was seen as one of THE blue-chip Cryptos in 2021 competing with SOL and ETH even with their hype. Now its just nowhere...

Apart-Annual6268

That’s what people said a a couple years ago, and then it hit over $126K. More than any crypto and precious metals in the world. If you don’t buy bitcoin during the huge clearance sale, you are dead. As a matter a fact, ETH, XRP, SOL, LITE, and XCN are probably the most affordable options there is but will be up there in the future for the most valuable crypto assets to invest in.

biba8163

There is very low interest in all these Altcoin ETFs. $100 Million is a threshold number even make managing an ETF viable and these ETFs are not drawing large amounts of money. - LTC $7 Million - HBAR $54.8 Million - XRP $283.1 Million - SOL $644.92 Million This is why it wasn't worth the effort for a bigger player like Blackrock to launch ETFs for coins. The vast majority of the money and interest is BTC and not much more outside of ETH. - ETH $17 Billion - BTC $120 Billion

Agitated-Falcon5557

Everything is gone already. BTC at 103k, SOL at 250. Its my second run and did pretty good on both cycles. Hoping the bubble will pop soon, it will impact everything

IamxGreenGiant

This positive news is actually bearish for $SOL. Probably bullish for other alts that we’d never think of longing. Don’t ask me why because I have no idea.

uhh, dumbass, the SOL ETF is BRAND FUCKING NEW. What, you expect something with literally no holders to have outflow? How do you think that'd work, exactly.

Pristine_Kangaroo527

Pretty much agree. There’s a reason I only buy BTC, ETH, SOL. Nothing else really has fundamentals, and when I was talking about fundamentals I was talking about out these three. XRP is dying by the way, it’s never going anywhere in my opinion.

Tall_Run_2814

People have been telling me this for years now. FYI, my current BTC cost basis is $34k, my current ETH cost basis is $350 and my current SOL cost basis is $56. Time in the market is better than timing the market. Lets check back in 10 years and compare portfolios.

Because BTC has hit new ATH since 2022, ETH at least reached previous ATH, all others like SOL are still down from the last ATH years ago.

Dark_Raiden_

Go easy on the guy. He explained he doesn't really know long-term. SOL isn't a horrible choice overall.

GroundbreakingPage41

Tbh this whole sub is mostly ETH maxis, they’re in extreme denial about the fact that it’s not BTC 2.0. It just doesn’t have the reputation or brand value of BTC, it also is inferior technology compared to newer chains. Why would anyone choose ETH as a safe cryptocurrency to invest in when BTC exists? Why would they choose ETH for defi/trading when it’s slowly losing ground to Solana? This sub loves to shit on SOL but numbers don’t lie, it won the volume game this past bull run and just performs better. ETH barely beat its ATH and its days are numbered, those who can’t drop it are in for a rude awakening.

People say the exact same thing EVERY CYCLE, lol. Forget about the price action and what people are saying and just look at the metrics. BTC is now held by corporations and countries. Even projects like ETH and SOL are earning $4 million a day in revenue in the mist of the market plummeting. Crypto is just code my friend and code is not going out of business.

Honest question: If you had that cash in your hand right now, would you buy SOL with it? If the answer is no, just sell and move on. Don't fall for the sunk cost fallacy.

SOL strategy

VIXtrade

You're not wrong about the growth in stablecoin market cap and transactions. Major financial institutions and governments are very interested in this trend. \>Could the current dive in value of BTC, ETH, SOL, ADA be linked to institutions timing the market and exiting ? does smart money unload their bags onto dumb money at the peak of the cycle? \> whats left to hope for in crypto? It kind of depends what your goals are. Want to see widespread mainstream adoption of blockchain technology? Its coming, but likely not the way you're hoping for. Hope to see BTC reach 1 million? Don't hold your breath. Hope to see the crypto market cap recover to 4.27 Trillion? Could take a year , 5 years, or never happen. Nobody knows. Maybe the crypto market stops crashing soon, rips higher for a short time before crashing further.

Tall_Run_2814

No one will ever know the exact lowest price, but you can clearly tell we're in a free fall right now. Just let it fall. Eventually things will get boring again and everyone accepts that "whatever amount" is the new price. I for one DCA, every week I buy BTC, ETH and SOL regardless of price. When there are major corrections and moves downward I increase my buys.

3 things I don't sell: BTC, Eth and SOL. I buy weekly regardless of price.

RefrigeratorLow1259

No, it's better than a full network halt, block production continued without a total freeze and many tx were processed by valid nodes.- it was a good stress test of the network. Most users won't be affected as any txs in the mempool or orphan block goes back in the mempool and it's eligible to be resubmitted automatically. Also Cardano wallets don't mark tx's as valid until it's on a stable chain.(consensus finality probability) Only really effects exchanges, lps and dApps with high throughput that need deterministic finality. Nowhere near as bad as a SOL outage.

crossy1686

Down 15% overall, but I only hold Bitcoin and Solana. My Bitcoin is only down 6% but my SOL is down 27%. Could be worse I guess, I see some people are down bad.

The305don

I’m trying to get half of that over the next few months. Still buying XRP HBAR AND SOL at the same time . This sale makes my goals from last year achievable! 6k 20k and 30 shares

MaximumStudent1839

Lol. You are still on this BS rev for L1s. Still remember how you were bragging SOL was projected to return $1B REV for this year....

Divay_vir

Watching SOL slip that far is rough. What I usually do is ask: “If I didn’t already own this, would I buy it today?” If the answer’s no, selling at least part of it can reduce the stress. If you still believe in it long term, holding isn’t crazy either. Some people just scale out slowly so it’s not an all-or-nothing move. And if you do swap into something else, Rubic makes cross-chain moves pretty simple since it aggregates a ton of routes. Happy to look at your time horizon if you want.

North_Weezy

It’s a tough position to be in because in a bear market any kind of dead cat bounce or relief rally will get quickly erased by people exiting their spot positions or traders shorting on leverage. Your options are to either take the loss and move on, or sell your shitcoins and DCA down into larger cap alts like ETH or SOL and wait until the next bull cycle for them to recover. Then just stick to Bitcoin and stocks and forget about altcoins and memes.

Worldly-Law9012

The top 100 coins by market has been changing gradually since inception of crypto except for likes of BTC, ETH and XRP. Perhaps game ultimately will be BTC, ETH and maybe SOL. Whats the purpose of the rest of coins that cant be achieved by BTC, ETH and SOL?

Worldly-Law9012

Alts losing steam, maybe game is BTC, SOL and ETH and closely aligned L2s and defi in those ecosystems. Bulk of chains that wanted to be the next ETH or ETH killers pretty much didnt come those. Where are all ETH killers now? Bulk of alts losing relevance and adoption which spreads the market thin.

UhUhWaitForTheCream

I agree with the new sentiment in here. Bear market is taking ahold. The cycle wasn’t like other cycles, but it had a clear “peak”. Not enough liquidity to support any parabolic runs in altcoins. TRON and SOL and some others did tho

WrathofTitus

I appreciate it. I'm not a cultist by any stretch as evident by my allocation....see link since I can't upload a picture here for some reason. I used to have a little of everything, but in the past 2 years or so, I've really downsized the amount of tokens. You just need 50% BTC, 25% ETH or SOL, couple of protocols, and one moon bag. https://photos.app.goo.gl/uJzcY2jkEPsuZAsr9 Anyways, I hope you're successful. Just remember, it doesn't matter what price you bought BTC at, it only matters how much you have; which usually is never enough.

andys811

I respect that. And I almost agree except from I do think a handful of alts will survive, most of crypto is definitely dead, that's pretty standard for most crypto. But I also think genuinely good coins like ETH or SOL get put into the same category of shitcoin when I personally think they will continue to do well with BTC

CaffeineComaMode

Incorrect - XRP went to $3.60+, SUI went to $5+, SOL went to $250+ Of course if you look at everything rn, everything is down, but that doesn't mean it will stay this for much longer. On the other hand, if you buy a house $200k atm, you are down at least $400k-$500k if you include the interest alone..

Chance-Pie-9034

So then the question shifts to how to recognize a project with strong fundamentals :-). I have the same with SOL right now. I believe in it and I think it shows (lots of institutional interest), but of course it can't beat these circumstances. So I hold it because I think it'll bounce back next year.

MakCapital

No long term L1 investor cares about whatever Trump political hot topic there is of the day. If anything global instability is bullish for Bitcoin long term. We do care about the regulatory changes Trump's admin accomplished for crypto which positively altered the mechanics of capital flow and adoption of Web3 in general. Down to us racing to add privacy into major chains before the end of Trump's term, real legislation/guidance, extremely pro crypto regulators ready to communicate/assist, and lawsuits against anything Web3 dropping. We went from "Touch Web3 and expect jail or endless lawsuits" to "everything gets tokenized". This saved the US crypto industry. The event that happened on 10/10 was the announcement that there would be serious consideration to remove crypto treasury companies from stock indexes if they hold over 70% in a single asset. This means no more guaranteed buyers of Microstrategy and related from large indexes like NASDAQ 100. Translates to dats having much less buying power across BTC, ETH, SOL. One of the largest buyers of L1s. DAT game ends, and tradfi buyers shift to ETFs as they should. Only reason why we needed dats, is the previous admin refused all crypto products. Ended up with crypto bags pretending to be companies 🤣.

I usually reply to idiots in a harsher and more insulting way, but since you called me an idiot I will be just balling with you. So here we go. First, I can assure you I have succeeded in many businesses and I am doing very well financially and I never bankrupted. I am pretty sure I must be doing better than you but nonetheless I don't wanna judge you and your wealth or mental being because it doesn't really matter. In my books bankruptcy is not 'smart' in any way, especially if done continuously because you simply are a failure. **You are defending a pedophile because you secretly like the pedophile, you are showing empathy towards the pedophile and its failures.** I didn't pour money in shitcoins. I bought BTC at 3$ in 2011, 10$ later and 700$ in 2017. And ETH at 3$ before the big jump in 2017, Render at 0,09$, Bonk in January 23, and SOL on ICO and many more ICOs like Tezos, Stacks, Mina etc. To me BTC at 80k is a delight, to you it is a market crash :) And as you might be drooling around these numbers and doing calculations, and they might be hard for you to believe, it is true, I exist and people like me exist. People smarter than Donald, Barron, Eric and all the shitshow company. Bro, I bet you still own a $Melania coin with -99% value crying in bed every night. And yes my friends love be because some of them got crypto riches too as I got them involved early. FYI, as an idiot, I read, I study, I analyze, I execute and yes, I sometimes fail - true, but I take them as lessons and learn from them and do not become an arrogant shit calling people idiots on the internet for no good reason.

csmflynt3

Long-term, this has proven to be correct 100 times over now, unfortunately. I think a few other altcoins could be added to this list now, so it should be safe with BTC, ETH, SOL, and BNB. As someone else said, it unfortunately doesn't correlate to which has the better tech anymore. In the short term , altcoins have way more upside than BTC if you know when to get out

AsideWild6996

Well, there is SOL and BNB. Don't be bothered by it. Anyone can say anything nowadays without accountabiliy.

crossy1686

SOL seems to bounce back quite well, so do a few others. It’s probably the top 5 at this point.

Im still holding 100% im in the red, and it'll probably get worse. But I'm DCA'n all the way down. I dont buy the "crypto is dead forever" hoopla. I've been collecting bitcoin for years, and if i take out on a downtrend d, it always reverses on me immediately. My bags have shrunk from chasing dips many times so I just accumulate. Im currently holding BTC, SOL, and ETH and I'll just collect more with these black friday prices

Interesting article, thanks!  Was trying to figure out what I’m missing. TRX only top 10 coin people are quiet about. I relatively know little about.  Then I analyze fees collected over 30d followed by market cap.  Tron 32M (26B MC) ETH 25M (331B MC) BSC 23M (113B MC) SOL 23M (72B MC) I’m gonna ask questions. 

_DigiTap

Many are eyeing strong narratives like SOL, AVAX, LINK, and TAO during this dip. Just keep positions small and focus on projects you understand accumulation works best when you're confident in what you’re holding :)

Sandharbor

That’s what catches me. Hard to ignore when the top chain by fee’s are ETH, SOL,TRON, and BSC and it varies by day and month which one is top dog at the time, but always comes back to these ones. 

Backieotamy

Have patience. I dont know what youve bought but you are right, there is no reason to panic this is the not the first or last fire sale and it will rebound. What I have found is the length in time between recoveries is getting shorter. If you are primarily invested in BTC, ETH, SOL, XRP, BNB... (the top 10) you will recover and get back into the profit zone. Your thought's, it's only numbers on a screen is perfect; the only people who need to panic are people who need that money right away. Hell, Im about to cash out a fair amount from ETH to help cover an unexpected trip to Florida soon. The truth is, I will be cashing out on positions I opened at $600 dollars. So will be taking a loss compared to two months ago but will still be a large profit compared to when I bought them, and thats how I look at it.

I started exiting my alts like 3 weeks ago. Got out of most of my ETH last week, exited most of my BTC this week. I got into crypto in 2020 and will be forever scarred by 2022 and 2023. I'm not doing 2022/2023 again. I'm not riding things down 70%+ for lols. I actually was able to buy low during that time. I bought some tokens for the express purpose of dumping them next bull. I missed their ultimate peak but still got good gains. I'm setting up for the next bull run (my 3rd). I didn't ride everything down to losses for lols like my first bear. I have the bag of stables that I wish I had in my second bull. I think that like my first bear, there will be points where there are obvious buys, even if the price drops lower... like $1k ETH, $10 SOL, $20k BTC. Especially when I use defi and stuff so I have a decent grasp on what chains are dead in price and activity and which ones are only dead in price. I wish we were still in a raging bull but it's whatever. The thing that always happens happened.

Personally: TAO, LINK, HBAR, SUI, SOL and AAVE.

RamoneBolivarSanchez

Yeah I’m ashamed to recognize it. Made a big bag of SOL during the NFT run by flipping Cets on Krek and ABC’s. Man what a wild and ridiculous time lol

Sandharbor

Looking for ones actually being used and taking in fees, creating revenue for the chain/protocol. I own and will accumulate some of these based on them taking in high fees, decent tokenomics, some in addition buy back and burn making them potentially deflationary.  AAVE  SKY   SOL ETH COIN(stock) it’ll benefit from multiple facets of the market; Base, Aero, USDC, being an exchange, coinbase ventures, holds crypto on treasury, etc May add UNI didn’t do good this run but is established, implementing a burn to reward holders, and takes in one of the most fees. 

Wadafak19

I held SOL and ETH only. I regret it.

saccredphantasm1

I'm 80% SOL (Avg 170) and 20% Aster (Avg 0.97) That's the total portfolio Will add more sol to bring the avg down..

Distinct-Thanks-6477

I am personally accumulating SOL, BNB, LINK, TAO, and AIOZ.

SendThemToHeaven

I already got rekt in one of the other crashes last year so I literally only have 10 SOL that I just use in the trenches to make more SOL to pay for my life. Actually figured out how to make money in the trenches because couldn't find a job eithere. Had 6 figures in 2023 lol. I'm surprised y'all are still alive

tldr; Bitcoin's price crashed to $82,000, leading to nearly $2 billion in liquidations across the cryptocurrency market. Notable figures affected include Andrew Tate, who was liquidated for the 84th time, and the 'Anti-CZ Whale,' whose profits dropped from $100 million to $30.4 million. Over 400,000 traders faced losses, with BTC leading liquidations at $1 billion. Altcoins like ETH, XRP, and SOL also suffered significant declines, contributing to a $300 billion drop in the total market cap. *This summary is auto generated by a bot and not meant to replace reading the original article.

I will say what other might have done as well - I did not sell BTC, ETH, BNB or SOL at those high values, just because I had some margins set, and I never could have anticipated this to come so sudden. Yes I might have missed the peak, and I feel a bit concerned, but I take it as a learning curve and I stand by my actions then. I will not panic sell, as I am not looking to exit the markets. Am I scared that we'll be down for some years and I could have capitalized now? Yes, but I do not want to damage my mental health by overthinking it. I do hope other took profits, capitalized at max values !!

tldr; Bitcoin's price dropped below $84,000 for the first time since mid-April, marking a 22% decline over the past month. The cryptocurrency's value is now 10% lower than at the start of the year, erasing gains made since President Trump's election win. Other cryptocurrencies, including Ether, XRP, Binance's BNB, Solana's SOL, and Dogecoin, also experienced significant declines in the past 24 hours. Traders anticipate further price drops amid the ongoing selloff. *This summary is auto generated by a bot and not meant to replace reading the original article. As always, DYOR.

Don't sell at a loss, lol. Bitcoin is for centuries. Better think about money flow and get some extra income sources to acquire more. Just get a savings plan into BTC and chill your eggs. Disable notifications and keep your inner peace. Keep as much fiat as you need to live comfortably; the rest shall work for you. Just test the markets out; divide into proportions as you believe and trust. Gold, Stocks, ETFs, crypto, REITs? Let the savings plan run for a while and check the results later; adjust proportions. In the end, Bitcoin isn't growing; it's the fiat which is failing. Stocks are worth the idea, people depend on property, and fiat has a limitless supply. Bitcoin is also an idea and we're still in the beginning of it.We didnt even got to use it yet properly. In Venezuela, they use gold rn to buy goods because their fiat X failed. We use fiat Y, and for some reason, we trust it. BTC is more convenient for payments also.Its a good emergency plan too. You gotta have the infrastructure for that, though. 1/2 of the world does. My proportions are 40%Reits to ensure moneyflow 40% Crypto ( 80% BTC 20% -SOL , and other Meme-Coins) 10% Gold 10%Stocks (mostly AI and automatisation for now) But im not far away from just full yolo in BTC all in. Sincerely S

noviwu97

Felt good. I got to sell my BTC at ~$115k average and SOL at ~$250

SlorgSlugmann

Fam Solana went all the way down to $7 This happens every so often We just have the luxury of forgetting it from time to time Just wait it out, employ some DeFi strategies, earn some yield in the meantime, stake your SOL Pick up a skill and develop it Things cant go up forever

Icy-Research7159

ETH, Shib, Doge, XRP, SOL and ADA.

Get a job and take a year off school just to work full time. Just save that money, don’t invest it. You need as much cash as possible and risking it is not worth it. Sell some of your crypto. Like sell 50% of HBAR, PEPE, LINK, and SOL. Leave your ETH but sell half of the others. Wait until everything drops 30-60% more and buy back the SAME amount of coins that you sold. For example, you had 100 SOL and sold 50. You buy back your 50 at a cheaper price and have some USDT left. Put those USDT in your savings account. The good news is that you’re not on margin. You won’t get liquidated, the coins are YOURS. The bad news is that everything dropped and you will need the money. The good news is that you need that money in 2 years (take a gap year for work!). The bad news is you will NEED that money. The good news is CS is a very profitable major. You could recover your loss completely after just a few months of work so in 5 years you will forget you ever fucked up with crypto. You won’t even feel it and won’t think of it every day. Try to get good grades, maybe you can earn some awards or a scholarsip. Work as much as possible. And save your money. Don’t spend as much. Cook your own meals if you need. You will make it. Just stay focused on what matters which is your grades, finding a job, and your health/life.

Post is by: snogcel and the url/text [ ](https://goo.gl/GP6ppk)is: /r/CryptoMarkets/comments/1p2ijx4/test_launch_opensource_crypto_trading_tools/ **TL;DR:** I’m test-launching two open-source crypto trading tools — **GeckoTerminal Data Collector** (enterprise-grade data pipeline) + **QLib Trader** (lightweight strategy framework). Running with **1.6 SOL** to validate workflows. Looking for testers, feedback, and contributors to help shape the platform. Long-term goal: establish **Black Circle Technologies, LLC** as the technical support provider for this open-source system. Hey everyone, I’m kicking off a **test launch** of two open-source tools I’ve spent most of this year building for crypto trading. The platform currently uses the free DEX API from [GeckoTerminal](https://www.geckoterminal.com/dex-api), and could be adapted to CoinGecko for Bitcoin/Ethereum trading. At a high level, my goal is to bring more transparency and legitimacy to the cryptocurrency space through open-source infrastructure. **The system is composed of two repositories:** 1. [GeckoTerminal Data Collector](https://github.com/snogcel/geckoterminal_collector) * Enterprise-grade Python system for collecting and managing trading data * Features intelligent automation, monitoring, and self-healing for reliable 24/7 operation 2. [QLib Trader](https://github.com/snogcel/qlib_trader) * Lightweight trading framework for prototyping and running strategies * Integrates seamlessly with the Data Collector **Shout Outs:** * [CryptoDataDownload (BTCUSDT)](https://www.cryptodatadownload.com/data/binance/) * [Alternative.me (Fear & Greed Index)](https://alternative.me/) * [TradingView (BTC Dominance)](https://www.tradingview.com/symbols/BTC.D/) **Current test run:** I’ve fired this up with **1.6 SOL** to validate the system. If you’d like to help: * Explore the repositories and experiment with the tools * Share feedback, bug reports, or feature requests * Contribute code or ideas to shape the platform This is a **community-first effort**. The foundation is solid, but the real power will come from collective involvement. My long-term goal is to establish **Black Circle Technologies, LLC** as the technical support provider for this platform but I need real-world testimonials first. A work-in-progress installation guide is available at: [blackcircletechnologies.com](https://blackcircletechnologies.com/) *Disclaimer: This is experimental and not financial advice.* *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

YouAreAnFnIdiot

Somebody knows something about SOL

Open_Category6100

lol, most of these guys are assholes. Funny, but assholes. If I was in your shoes, I would not sell. I would write down how much Ethereum & Solana I have. If they’re not rounded numbers, as few decimals as possible, I’d buy a little more. These are the assets you bought. They are down and will only go more down. You bought at the top. It is what it is. But, if you sell, you will make the loss real. Do not sell, forget about it. Whatever amount you wish you had access to right now, is what should have never been invested. Sometimes going all in or gambling works, sometimes it doesn’t. These are one of the latter times. 2nd, now that you’ve forgotten about your Ethereum & Solana, and forgiven yourself while making peace, we come to the 40k you still have in cash. Crypto will bottom out. If you want to buy cheap, figure out a way to make more cash while still being a college student. Dropshipping, YouTube videos, labor work on the weekends, etc. Find something that will help you accumulate more cash, after first focusing on school. Crypto will continue to go down and this advice is if you want to buy more. Non-negotiables 1. Do not sell at a loss. Eat the drop as a lesson. 2. Finish school. Either spend the 40k or make more money to finish school and continue to buy crypto. Finally, if 2026 comes around and is ending, you’ve used your 40k, crypto is still down, and you have no more money… me personally? I would take a year off from school. I would focus full time on accumulating cash and wait for the market to correct. It will correct. It may take 2 years from today, but it will correct. If it wasn’t going to correct then these assholes in the comment section wouldn’t be so humorous. But, if you sell your crypto at a loss, you will make it real. College is a business. It’s meant to help you make more money. People take student loans out, to then receive a degree that will help them make more money, and then they pay back student loans, as an initial start up cost. It’s all business and should be approached more financially focused and money oriented. Taking a year off from school because you don’t want to sell at a 35k loss is actually very financially intelligent. Selling your crypto at a 35k loss is stupid. That’s almost half your yearly tuition. If you must take a year off though, let it be dedicated to actually accumulating more cash, and investing some into coins with actual utility. You should also diversify into other assets. Don’t let it become a year of degeneracy and wasted potential. P.S. My advice applies to ETH and SOL. Pepe is a meme coin and was stupid. Forget about that money, it’s gone. I also don’t know what HBAR is and LINK is debatable depending on how much and at what price you purchased. Smaller coins deserve smaller allocation/percentage of your overall crypto portfolio. <- but, they must always have utility. Good luck!

Ok so the bear market is here. How do we buy dips. Only btc? Remember how sol 10x What’s the new SOL this time. Imagine it’s a Dino coin. Zcash?

HackerStickers

Just setup monthly auto purchase DCAs for BTC, ETH, XRP, SOL and call it a day

justcurious3287

IMO, yes. I look up top cryptocurrencies lists, or best cryptocurrencies list, and they show up often. They also both have a huge market cap and good real-world utility. BTC and ETH are the best, but XRP and SOL are both runners up, IMO.

Sorry-Mark-55

Are XRP and SOL also good coins?

biba8163

SOL and XRP ETFs have ~$250 Million. Zero impact and interest from anyone.

33NoBody33

SOL ETF launched and is now starting to take in inflows You can earn staking rewards from the ETF too

privinci

Use gasless dex like 1inch, buy 1$ of SOL are enough
