Solana rose from $85.37 on Aug. 20 to an intraday high above $102.59 on Aug. 25 before profit-taking pulled it back toward $97.50 on Aug. 26. SOL remained up about 14% over seven days, breaking through Murrey Math resistance at $87.50 and $93.75, although it failed to secure a daily close above the $102-$103 area. The rally was supported by broader risk appetite, more than $4 billion in crypto short liquidations, approximately $65.74 million in weekly spot Solana ETF inflows and Solana-specific network developments. A proposed fee restructuring could increase SOL burns if adopted, while the network also overtook Base in daily x402 micropayment transactions and gained AI-agent wallet support through Ramp. Technical indicators remain constructive but stretched: the daily RSI reached 79.32, while SOL's 4-hour price remained above its middle Bollinger Band at $96.67. A break above $101.04 could reopen $102.59-$103.08 and potentially $106.25, while a move below $92.30 would weaken the breakout. Analysts remain divided, with Altcoin Sherpa projecting a move above $120 if Bitcoin and wider risk conditions stay strong, while Haris warned that repeated rejection at $98-$102 could form a bull trap.
