The selloff occurred mainly because FTX and its sister firm, Alameda Research, held about 55 million SOL, setting off worries of a dump to plug liquidity holes.Nonetheless, purchasing SOL a year back would have produced an earnings of over 660% today.Solanas gains have largely stemmed from a total benefit sentiment in the crypto market, led by hopes about a Spot Bitcoin ETF approval in the U.S. At the exact same time, SOLs cost has actually also gained from going away worries about a prospective dump by FTX. #FTXFTX has offered 6,986,554 $SOL in the past couple of weeks, for ~$ 280.2 M $USD.They are completely OUT of unlocked $SOL.The just $SOL they have exposure to is secured, many until 2027-2028, in the nick of time to sell the bottom of the next bearishness. #SOLANA can commence UP ONLY. pic.twitter.com/Qu2z843oxS— Curb ◎ (@CryptoCurb) November 14, 2023
