- Solana surged almost 20% this week, surpassing rivals.
- Is the “long” location of the “long” is a sign of wider structural changes?
Undoubtedly, Q2 began with the optimistic propulsion of Solana (SOL), which recorded almost 20%of the meeting, regaining the supply area in mid -March.
But the rally is far from organic. Derivatives metrics show a distinct long distance imbalance, with more than 70% of the Binance Open Interest (OI).
In general, these leverage structures are not supported by persistent point inflow and firm bidding surface absorption, and all sharp returns to increase the probability of liquidation cascade.
With this in mind, AmbCrypto investigated. Is SOL primary for classic liquidity sweep and average return? Or are the leverage participants leading the bigger one?
Strategic location behind Solana’s long prejudice
This week, it turned out to be decisive to Solana. The main development can now set the next stage of the Q2 expansion.
Canada led the claim. The country has started the world’s first Solana ETFS (Exchange-Traded Funds) on the Toronto Stock Exchange and has a significant stage of institutional adoption.
Meanwhile, Defidevcorp, a notable player in the Distributed Finance (Defi) space, acquired a $ 15.5 million SOL to create a headline.
In fact, this bold movement has a total of 163,651.7 SOL -today’s market for $ 23 million in today’s market.
At the same time, Galaxy Digital seems to be quietly strengthening Solana portfolio.
The company withdrew an additional 150,221 SOL (about $ 19.98m) from Binance and extracted the total withdrawal to $ 58 million since April 14.
Thus, these institutional inflows have promoted an increase of 20% per share in the SOL, and the futures revealed (OI) reached $ 33.4 billion and regained the level of late 134.

Look forward: Another OI Draw Down Prevention
As you can see in the chart above, the long accumulation of last year’s Q4 rally matched the $ 294 ATH of Solana in January. During this period, OIs reached $ 6.8 billion.
But when dangerous feelings penetrated the market among the wider macro pressure, we saw a sharp de leverage event where the OI was released in the liquidation location. By the end of the first quarter, OI returned to $ 2 billion.
In the future, if the institutional inflow continues to strengthen the liquidity of Solana, it can alleviate the risk of similar events. What is the probability?
Solana’s Q2 technical outlook is still optimistic with great potential.
Since SOL has recently fallen to $ 100, a new wallet address of more than 200K has been boarded to signal powerful user adoption.
