Solana Price Drops Below A Support Level 4-hour chart for SOL/USD (Source: GeckoTerminal) The Solana price dropped below the support level at $209.38 in the last couple of hours, and has since been trying to reclaim a position above the mark.

Solana was one of the most-affected casualties of the FTX crash. Sam Bankman-Fried’s exchange collapsed in November 2022 and it subsequently filed for bankruptcy. From its $38.59 local high created in November 2022, the crypto asset’s price dropped down to a low of $8 by December. The same translated to a whopping 387% decline. However, like most digital assets in 2023, even Solana rallied on a positive note. It went on to fetch investors lofty returns in Q1.
