In addition to positive inflows, other signs of optimism suggest a potential price recovery. Solana highlighted several developments on X on Sunday. Citi, the global investment bank, has represented a bill of exchange as a token onchain and executed the entire lifecycle (from issuance to settlement) on Solana. Meanwhile, Goldman Sachs disclosed $108 million in SOL holdings, and Solana’s Real World Asset (RWA) Total Value Locked (TVL) climbed to a new all-time high of $1.66 billion, with over 285,000 unique holders.

Solana Price Forecast: SOL could extend its recovery if it breaks the consolidation zone

Solana price found support around the lower consolidation boundary at $76.45 on Thursday and recovered over the next two days, reaching the upper consolidation boundary at $89.38, before declining on Sunday. As of writing on Monday, SOL is trading at $85.

If SOL breaks above the upper consolidation zone and closes there, it could extend its advance toward the key psychological level at $100.

The Relative Strength Index (RSI) on the daily chart reads 35, rebounding from oversold levels, signaling an easing of bearish momentum. The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) showed a bullish crossover on Sunday, further supporting the recovery thesis.
