Why Solana is down 1.3% in the last hour
Analysis
Solana (SOL) slipped 1.3% over the past hour as negative sentiment weighed on the ecosystem following South Korea’s arrest of suspects tied to the Solana-based CatFi memecoin in what was described as the first rugpull case under the country’s new law. That regulatory enforcement headline likely pressured near-term risk appetite around Solana-linked tokens, offsetting any broader positive read-through from news that a Solana-treasury firm is joining the Russell 2000/3000 indexes.
