Solana Resilient? Yeah, Sure, Even Hackers Love It Too!

by

So, here’s the scoop: Solana, the blockchain darling, is holding its ground-at least above that fancy $140 mark. Despite the fact that some South Korean exchange-Upbit, no less-got swiped for a cool $37 million. Nice, huh? Usually, you’d expect a total meltdown, but nope, Solana’s acting like nothing happened. It’s like the hacker just stole a paperclip, and everyone’s acting like it’s a big deal.

Oh, and in case you’re thinking this is all just a fluke, guess what? Franklin Templeton, a global giant with a trillion – yes, trillion – dollars under management, is jumping on the Solana bandwagon. They’re filing stuff to launch a Solana ETF, because nothing screams stability like a giant money manager jumping into the crypto pool. It’s like putting your grandmother in a rollercoaster-bold move, but hey, maybe it works!

Franklin’s big move: Turning Solana into the next big thing or just chasing shiny objects?

Basically, they’re trying to give the world a “regulated” way to buy Solana without actually buying Solana. Because, who doesn’t want a side of regulated crypto with their morning coffee? Anyway, the last time ETFs hit the scene, Bitcoin went to the moon and Ethereum took a while to get over that awkward phase. So, stay tuned. Or don’t. Probably don’t.

And then there’s Upbit-loses $37 million, acts like a responsible exchange, but solana remains unscathed

So, Upbit gets hacked, loses a mountain of cash-about $37 million. What do they do? They freeze assets faster than you can say “liability,” move everything into cold storage, and promise to pay everyone back with their own money. Class act, really. Meanwhile, Solana’s like, “Hey, I’m still here!” holding steady above that $140 support level. Traders are apparently on guard,’s like the security guards at the world’s most boring bank. And BONK, TRUMP, MOODENG-those meme coins? Not even a scratch. It’s like they’re wearing armor made out of memes.

The timing? Nearly six years since Upbit’s notorious 2019 hack-should be embarrassing, but nope, people seem pretty convinced Solana’s more solid than a Popeye can of spinach.

What next? Higher highs or a basement dive?

Analysts say if SOL busts through the $142-$145 resistance zone-yeah, good luck-then we’re talking $165, $188, maybe even $220. Or 240. Or if we’re feeling really wild, maybe even to $360 and beyond, if the stars align. But, if it can’t keep above $143? Well, down to $130 or even $127-because who doesn’t love a good dip?

For now, Solana proves it’s got some backbone-despite hacks, market chaos, and whatever other chaos. And hey, if the big institutions keep throwing money into this mess, maybe it’s worth a shot. Or not. Or maybe we just watch from the sidelines, eating popcorn.
