Whales buy Solana worth $23.86M: Is $400 in sight for SOL?
AMBCrypto -
  •  Solana whale recently purchased 100K SOL worth $23.86M
  • Solana recorded $311M in stablecoin inflows over the last 24 hours, the largest inflow ever.

 Solana [SOL] has held the $230 support level, rising by 2.01% in the past 24 hours. This was driven by heightened volatility as Bitcoin hit an all-time high of $99,000. 

Meanwhile, Solana’s 24-hour trading volume has surged by 9.41%, reaching $7.31 billion. With analysts anticipating more bullish momentum in ‘Pumpcember’, the question remains: Can Solana achieve the $400 price?

The data shows that the transactions originated primarily from Binance accounts and were transferred to the whale’s staking address.

Solana hits record $310M stablecoin inflows

Solana has experienced unprecedented stablecoin inflows, with $310 million entering the ecosystem in the last 24 hours. This marked the largest single-day inflow in its history.
