Jason Lau, COO of cryptocurrency exchange Okcoin feels the coin would encounter resistance at $215, but if it could rise above that mark, more upside is possible, reported Forbes.
“$215 is the last all time high so resistance is expected. If we can clear this, $250 is certainly possible.”
Last week, SOL had benefitted from a rally in Layer 1 Smart Coin solutions and the announcement related to the beta launch of Squads, a decentralized autonomous organization (DAO) generator.
