Solana
Why Solana is down 2.4% today
Analysis
Solana (SOL) slipped 2.4% over the past 24 hours as risk sentiment around the token appeared pressured by security-related headlines, after Coinbase flagged proof-of-stake chains like Solana as potential quantum risks. While there was also constructive ecosystem news—Bitget launching pre-IPO tokens “starting with SpaceX” on Solana and GSR rolling out an actively managed BTC/ETH/SOL basket ETF on Nasdaq—those developments may not have been enough to offset the caution sparked by the quantum-risk discussion.
