The Solana price has plunged 6% in the past 24 hours to trade for $134.34 as of 04:50 a.m. EST on trading volume that fell 10%.
It comes amid a broader market dump, led by the king of crypto, BTC, which is down 2%. The bleed is seen across the sector with most altcoins posting up to 5% in losses on the day.
But there is still anticipation for an altcoin season, marked by capital rotation from the BTC market. In the medium to short-term aftermath of the BTC halving, altcoins typically rally following the bullish sentiment that the landmark event inspires in the market.
For the Bitcoin price, however, a rally is expected as long as 518 days after the halving.

 In the 2015-2017 cycle, Bitcoin peaked 518 days after the Halving
 In the 2019-2021 cycle, Bitcoin peaked 546 days after the Halving
 If history repeats and the next Bull Market peak occurs 518-546 days after the Halving…
 That would mean Bitcoin could peak in this cycle… <a href="https://t.co/3prPFXAwky" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">pic.twitter.com/3prPFXAwky</a>

Meanwhile, “altseason” is trending on X, with some saying that an altcoin season will commence soon.

For the Solana price, technical analysis say sthe odds favor the upside after the Layer-1 (L1) token completed a rounding bottom pattern. This bullish reversal pattern occurs after a prolonged downtrend in an asset’s price followed by a recovery to form a “U” shape.
It suggests a change in long-term price movement or a shift in sentiment from bearish to bullish. Here, the price decline loses its momentum and is succeeded by a steady recovery precipitating a breakout to the upside.
<h2 id="solana-price-outlook">Solana Price Outlook</h2>
The fact that the SOL bulls have defended the $130.45 support for over a month is a good sign, suggesting a possible recovery in the works. This is reinforced by the fact that the Relative Strength Index (RSI) is also well above the mean level of 50. This shows that the bullish sentiment remains intact in the SOL market.
If SOL bulls come in to play to activate the rounding bottom pattern, jumping off from the $130.45 support, the Solana price could bounce north into the supply zone stretching from $197.70 to $250.21. A break and close above the midline of this range on the weekly timeframe at $224.14 would confirm the continuation of the primary trend.
In a highly bullish case, the Solana price could flip the supply zone into a support or bullish breaker, confirmed by reclamation of the all-time high at $259.90, before establishing a higher high.
The likely play on the RSI is a bounce off this momentum indicator above the 50 mean level, kickstarting a new uptrend for SOL.

On the other hand, if the bears have their way, the Solana price could lose the support at $130.45. This would be critical for the L1 token, exposing SOL price to a possible drop to the $80.00 level. A candlestick close below this level would invalidate the bullish thesis.
Meanwhile, many traders are also turning to Smog, a Solana meme coin that is making headlines after the first season of its airdrop unleashed $1 million in giveaways.

Amid a shaky outlook in the Solana price, consider Smog, which says it will have the ”greatest airdrop in history.”
Smog’s Season 1 airdrop rewarded<a href="https://insidebitcoins.com/visit/smog" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow"> $SMOG</a> token holders who joined the project’s quest board on Zealy. Those who completed daily quests and community tasks for XP also received rewards.
The first season ended on April 3, and was marked by a remarkable 9 million quests being completed between nearly 50,000 participants.
<h4>Smog Airdrop Season 2</h4>
Season 2 started on April 4 and is ongoing. Things are different this time, however, with the on-chain activity of SMOG holders being assessed since the beginning of Smog’s launch. It also continues to reward holders who complete community quests in the second season quest board on Zealy.
