Solana was front and center yesterday after the market saw a few interesting spectacles. First, SOL price fell to a low of around $8. This is very likely due to LP redemptions at several crypto funds. We know for a fact that Multicoin and Sino were heavily exposed to all things SOL and FTX. "HAHA, you guys are rekt!" appears to be the general sentiment on Twitter, but it is important to remember that these guys bought SOL with entries probably lower than $1.
After some relentless selling in the afternoon, the chart reached a moment so bad that all you could do was laugh at it. The bold had their "I'll buy all the SOL you have right now at $8!!!" moment. And then, the unexpected happened. Lord Vitalik Buterin tweeted about the Solana developer community and how the ecosystem is now more attractive that many of the value extractors left. SOL giga squeezed towards $11 and liquidated about $20M in shorts. This momentum was short lived, and SOL trickled back down to around $9.50, but given the uptick in volume and attention, yesterday could have very well been a structural change to its market.
