The crypto market is rallying 6.8% following the US presidential
elections, which made Bitcoin soar to a new all-time high (ATH). As
a result, most of the market saw a green daily close, with Solana
(SOL) recording a 15.8% surge in the last 24 hours and regaining a
key support level. Related Reading: Shiba Inu (SHIB) Gearing Up For

Solana Dethrones BNB As 4th Largest Crypto The result of the US
elections gave the crypto market the long-awaited boost many
investors and market watchers expected. In the early hours of
Wednesday, the largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization
surged about 8.6% toward its new ATH of $75,358. This surge, fueled
by the victory of pro-crypto Republican candidate Donald Trump and
a mostly crypto-friendly Congress over US Vice President Kamala
Harris, ignited a bullish rally across the market. Solana followed
BTC’s lead and jumped over 15% to turn the $180 level into support.
Moreover, the cryptocurrency reached its highest price since July,
nearing the $190 resistance level. SOL’s daily activity skyrocketed
in the last 24 hours, rising 210% to a $10.7 billion daily trading
volume. Meanwhile, the cryptocurrency saw a 14.66% increase in
market capitalization, surging to an $88.1 billion market cap. As a
result, Solana flipped Binance Coin (BNB)’s $85 billion market cap,
dethroning BNB as the fourth largest cryptocurrency by this metric.
This performance fueled investors’ bullish sentiment on the
cryptocurrency, with some market watchers predicting a bullish wave
towards Q1’s highs. Is SOL Getting Ready For $400? Solana was
deemed one of the strongest cryptocurrencies during Q3’s market
retraces, holding above its breakout levels while most altcoins
struggled. Following last night’s performance, crypto Trader Koz
called SOL’s chart “one of the absolute best-looking charts out
there.” The cryptocurrency’s surge above the $180 mark represents a
breakout from an 8-month consolidation range that started after
Solana hit its yearly high of $202. Similarly, World of Charts
considers SOL as ‘looking more bullish than before.” The analyst
noted that the cryptocurrency finally broke above the upper line of
a bullish flag pattern after nearly breaking above it in late
October. World of Charts suggested that after the successful
breakout, a massive bullish wave is around the corner. To the
analyst, this wave could ultimately send Solana’s price toward a
new ATH of $400. Moreover, crypto analyst Jelle highlighted the
breakout, stating that SOL is ready to retest the yearly highs.

30% Ahead Of US Elections A reclaim of the $200 mark, not seen
since March, could propel the cryptocurrency above its ATH of $260
in the coming weeks. However, it is key that Solana holds the $180
mark to continue its bullish ascend, as a rejection from this zone
could see SOL’s price pullback to the $160 support. SOL trades at
$186.9, a 4.12% and 27.56% increase in the weekly and monthly
timeframes. Featured Image from Unsplash.com, Chart from
