Solana: Is This the Bottom? 📉

by

DeFi Development Corp (DFDV), a Nasdaq-listed entity apparently dedicated to the accumulation of Solana (SOL) – one can only assume for reasons best known to themselves – has reported, in a November update of alarming mundanity, that it didn’t actually buy any SOL last month. A chilling stillness descended upon the treasury, remaining steadfastly at 2,195,926 SOL, a sum valued at approximately $293.2 million. One hopes the shareholders aren’t expecting miracles. ✨

Their dfdvSOL product, a curious concoction if ever there was one, held 530,286.72 units. And, a touch of cheer amidst the gloom: Q3 unrealized gains exceeded $74 million, a return of 11.4% from SOL operations. An excellent result, naturally, though one wonders if it’s mere accounting legerdemain. 🧐

Senior executives, Parker White and Dan Kang, rather than engaging in the vital work of boosting the SOL price, confessed to acquiring shares in DFDV itself from the open market. A clever manoeuvre, certainly. Self-preservation, one suspects, is a powerfully motivating force. 😇

Treasury Data: A Display of Numbers

The full recap, a weighty document no doubt, fixated upon its latest SEC filing, an income of $4.6 million, and the generation of on-chain yields – facilitated by validator work and, naturally, ‘DeFi deployments’. The jargon is truly breathtaking.🙄

The Solana-per-share ratio stands presently at 0.0700, with 31.39 million shares in circulation. And, for those seeking a gamble beyond the ordinary, warrant trading under ticker DFDVW reportedly offers “optional upside exposure” to future growth. A prospect as enticing as a rainy afternoon in November. ☔️

DFDV has inked a Letter of Intent with Loopscale, a gesture supposedly aimed at augmenting stablecoin yield tactics. A desperate attempt at capital efficiency, no doubt, as broader Solana liquidity appears to be…well, let’s just say resting. 😴

Liquidity: A Reset of the Usual Sort

Altcoin Vector, a voice of undeniable authority (one assumes), decrees that Solana is undergoing a ‘full liquidity reset’, a phrase which sounds suspiciously like what happens when one leaves the tap running. This echoes, they claim, the foundational phases of previous cycles. Charts abound, showing resets followed by ignitions. A most dramatic narrative. 🎭

A key lesson in alt positioning: when liquidity ignites, the move is fast.$SOL is under a full liquidity reset, setting a new liquidity cycle, as in past bottoming phases.

Forced selling exhausts, the ecosystem cleans from the inside out, and SOL begins building the base for…

Forced selling is apparently nearing completion, and the ecosystem is ‘cleaning out internal excess’. A euphemism, one imagines, for unpalatable losses. If history repeats itself, liquidity may ignite within four weeks, potentially shifting things by early January. Though, of course, a quicker descent remains entirely possible. 📉

Liquidity and the $140 Mark

An analyst named Ted Pillows, a name that suggests a particular fondness for comfort and naps, posits that most of the downside liquidity has evaporated. His heatmap reveals stacked liquidity near $140, a level, he predicts, ripe for ‘clearing’. One anticipates volatility – and a generous supply of strong drink. 🍹

$SOL downside liquidity has been almost taken out.

Some liquidity clusters are now sitting around the $140 level, which will most likely be swept next.

SOL currently trades around $132, a figure that, frankly, inspires little confidence. Yet, despite a 16% drop in the past month, analysts persist in labelling SOL a prime crypto investment for 2025. Optimism, it seems, remains remarkably resilient in the face of overwhelming evidence. 🤷
