The crypto analyst who warned Solana (SOL) traders to sell near the cycle top at $250 is back with a new outlook after the market validated his earlier call. Crypto Patel says the decline in SOL\u2019s price following his $200-$250 exit zone has now created the conditions for a new long-term opportunity, but only if another key level gives way. His latest chart frames Solana\u2019s price action<\/a> as a repeatable cycle of euphoric expansion and sharp correction before the next major rally.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Crypto Patel Shares New Solana Price Prediction\u00a0<\/b><\/h2>\n

In a recent post on X, Crypto Patel reminded<\/a> community members that when Solana was trading near its peak between $250 and $200, most investors were projecting a run to $1,000. Instead, the price reversed from a high around $295<\/a> and collapsed to near $67, marking a massive 77% drawdown from the top.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Now, the analyst is presenting a new outlook, warning of a potentially similar decline in Solana\u2019s price this cycle. He notes that Solana is now testing the $85 level<\/a>, which corresponds to the 0.382 Fibonacci retracement on the chart. The zone has acted as a temporary support; however, it remains structurally weak given the broader trend of lower highs since the peak.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The analyst suggests that if Solana fails to break $85, its price could slide into the $50- $30 range, extending its decline over the past two years<\/a>. He has labeled this area as a strong Fair Value Gap (FVG)<\/a> accumulation zone based on historical demand and volume behavior.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\"Solana\"<\/p>\n

The accompanying chart also maps prior expansion phases in which Solana surged by thousands of percent after long consolidation periods. In the 2021 bull cycle<\/a>, price rallied by more 24,234.55% and then declined by 97.01% the following year. Crypto Patel\u2019s current projection places Solana in a similar expansion and corrective phase.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The cryptocurrency has already experienced its expansion stage in 2024, when its price jumped by more than 3,699% to a peak of around $295. Now the analyst predicts an upcoming correction,<\/a> where price is expected to decline by a whopping 89.44% in mid 2026.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

Long-Term Targets Remain Intact Despite Correction<\/b><\/h2>\n

Despite the bearish short-term outlook, Crypto Patel has not abandoned his long-range bullish projections for SOL. He maintains that once the corrective phase is complete, Solana could still target the $500<\/a>\u2013 $1,000 range. His chart projects a sharp upward surge toward the $1,000 level by 2027, representing a massive 3,103% surge.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Going further, the analyst also shared his bullish price projection for Solana by late 2029. He expects that once the price hits $1,000, SOL could rally strongly and steadily toward $10,000. He has marked $9,270 as the next long-term target, reflecting a rally of approximately 27,660%.<\/p>\n
