Ethereum (ETH) rival Solana (SOL) bucked the wider crypto market downtick amid a new integration with Binance’s Web3 Wallet.
The fifth-ranked crypto asset by market cap is up more than 5% in the past 24 hours, compared to the overall crypto market cap, which is down 3.8% over the same period, according to CoinGecko.
Binance says its Web3 Wallet users can now trade SOL and access a range of DApps and upcoming airdrops.
Some crypto analysts think the Ethereum rival is primed for a correction, however.
Earlier this week, Ali Martinez told his 52,700 followers on the social media platform X that SOL’s Tom DeMark (TD) sequential indicator flashed a sell signal on its daily chart, which has historically signaled price drops for the smart contract platform. The trader predicts that SOL could retrace back to the $127-152 range.
The TD Sequential indicator is typically used to identify the potential turning point for an asset’s price.
SOL is up more than 23% in the past week, nearly 52% in the past month and more than 62% since the start of the year. Despite those price gains, however, it remains nearly 32% down from its all-time high of $259.96, which it set in November 2021.
SOL is trading at $177.72 at time of writing.
