Solana’s native token, SOL (SOL), experienced a remarkable 58.6% surge in just five days, reaching a $64 high on Nov. 11. However, the subsequent two-day retracement of 11.3% to $54 has prompted investors to question whether this signals a fading bullish momentum or merely a temporary price adjustment.

To put SOL’s performance into context, it can be compared with other leading altcoins. Since its peak on Nov. 11, Avalanche’s AVAX (AVAX) has rallied by 17%, Ether (ETH) gained 1%, and BNB (BNB) traded down 2%. This comparison underscores that SOL has underperformed in the broader altcoin market. Therefore, the 5.5% daily decline on Nov. 13 is unlikely to be tied to macroeconomic or sector drivers, such as the potential approval of a spot BTC exchange-traded fund.
