Crypto analyst Crypto Curb says Solana could target $1,000 if bullish breakout occurs

Weekly formation raises prospect of $1,000

Crypto analyst Crypto Curb suggests that, despite months of consolidation, Solana may still be following a longer-term bullish trajectory. According to Crypto Curb, SOL is exhibiting a structure reminiscent of previous market cycles: prolonged sideways action within a downward-sloping channel that could precede a strong breakout.

In the analyst’s view, a broad bull flag formation stands out on Solana’s weekly chart. In technical analysis terms, a bull flag represents a pause or consolidation following a sharp upward move, and is often interpreted as a sign that the prevailing trend could continue.

Glossary: A bull flag is a technical pattern where after a strong rally, the price catches its breath in a tightening or downward-sloping range. Analysts typically see this as a potential indicator for trend continuation, rather than its end.

Crypto Curb highlights that the current area of compression that has capped Solana’s price since 2024 is more likely a continuation pattern than an indication of trend reversal; if SOL breaks higher from this structure, the $1,000 level could move back into focus.

In this scenario, should Solana decisively clear the upper boundary of its channel, a move toward $1,000 and higher would become theoretically plausible. However, this remains a highly speculative projection, with the analyst noting that the validity of the bullish thesis depends on the support within the current pattern being maintained and an upward breakout being clearly confirmed.

The $82–$90 zone emerges as critical resistance

Conversely, crypto analyst EliZ points out that Solana continues to trade within a broad range on the weekly chart and has yet to deliver a convincing directional signal. As it stands, the price is positioned near the middle of this band, making it difficult to adopt a strongly bullish or bearish stance with confidence.

EliZ identifies the principal resistance zone for Solana between $82 and $90. A strong reclaim of this area could signal a shift, turning a previous resistance into support—an important development that may mark the beginning of a more sustained recovery.

EliZ notes that if the $82–$90 band is established as support again, it will be key to confirming stronger momentum for Solana, but until that materializes, the macro outlook remains neutral.

The $45–$50 region monitored in case of downside risk

On the downside, analysts are monitoring the $45 to $50 range as a major support area. Should Solana fall into this zone, the resulting price action could create a more attractive platform for long-term accumulation—particularly if selling pressure subsides and buyers start to return.

Despite the ongoing lack of momentum in the short term, EliZ does not hold an entirely negative view on Solana’s long-term prospects. The analyst recalls that stronger trend formation in SOL has previously spurred increased activity across its ecosystem, including renewed interest in Solana-based meme coins and other higher-risk assets.
