Solana Heading for $200?
Just ten days into the new year, the digital asset industry received a monumental development for the market. Indeed, the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) greenlit the issuance of 11 Spot Bitcoin ETFs in the country. Although that was expected to catapult the industry forward, volatility has been the common outcome of the approvals.
However, one asset has maintained a steady level and could be in line for a massive surge this year. Subsequently, Solana (SOL) is on track to head for the $200 mark, but could it happen in 2024? The asset has recently broken out from a bull flag formation on its 4-hour chart. Therefore, a closure ahead of the $106 level could mean a rise of more than 45%.
