- “A new change is in the works that automates this,” says Mert Mumtaz.
- Suffering from a week-long negative trend, SOL is trading at $20.62.
Mert Mumtaz, the co-founder of Helius Labs, took to Twitter earlier today to claim that Solana was addressing the long-standing criticism regarding manual human intervention during network issues. “A new change is in the works that automates this,” he said, while also asking his followers to weigh in on the idea.
Mumtaz reminded Twitterati that Ethereum took years to get to where it is today and that it was no different for Solana. Most of his followers welcomed the idea; one user was quoted saying: “Solana will end up the best blockchain out there because of the outages, not in spite of them. Chewing glass is accepting failure, picking yourself up, and saying, ‘I can do better.’ And then proving it. PRs like this prove it.”
With a market cap of $8,159,578,676 and a trading volume of $271,416,935, Solana is positioned in the ninth spot in CoinMarketCap’s top coins by market cap list. Valued at $20.62, Solana has dipped 1.01% in the last 24 hours and 0.40% in the last week. SOL has also weakened against BTC by 0.5%.

From the daily chart, it is evident that SOL is trading bearishly below the 9 and 20 EMA, which may be a sign that it will drop further in the next 24-48 hours. The RSI indicator on the daily chart supports this bearish thesis, with the RSI line positioned slightly below the RSI SMA line. With a value of 42.7, it is also very close to the oversold region.

The Bollinger bands on Solana’s chart show that there have not been significant fluctuations in its price and that it has been moving sideways for the past few months, since its considerable jump back in early January. Looking at the current movements, it can be estimated that the price might rise above the SMA line and hit the upper band.
