The cryptocurrency community is abuzz with excitement following a recent post from CryptoQuant.com on X, hinting at a potential “Solana Storm” driven by the anticipated approval of a Solana Spot ETF.
Quiet Markets, Big Expectations: Calm Before the Solana Storm?
“This slowdown can be an early-stage opportunity — especially when it coincides with an upcoming catalyst… the potential approval of a Solana Spot ETF.” – By @burak_kesmeci pic.twitter.com/Jh3AiIUKgj

The tweet suggests that the current market slowdown could be the calm before a significant bullish wave, especially with an upcoming catalyst tied to regulatory developments.
CryptoQuant’s analysis includes two insightful visualizations: the “Solana Spot Volume Bubble Map” and “Solana Futures Volume Bubble Map.” These charts, color-coded to reflect market conditions (red for overheating, green for cooling), indicate a recent dip in activity. This lull, according to CryptoQuant analyst @burak_kesmeci, might present an “early-stage opportunity,” particularly if the SEC greenlights a Solana Spot ETF.
The post aligns with Polymarket data, which as of June 11, 2025, shows a striking 91% probability of approval this year, a figure echoed by Bloomberg ETF analyst Eric Balchunas, who estimates a 90% chance.

The potential impact of an ETF approval is substantial. Research from the Journal of Financial Economics (2021) indicates that assets experiencing ETF approvals often see a 15-20% price jump within 30 days. With Solana currently trading at $163.74, this could translate to a target of around $300 if regulatory momentum holds. The direct buying and selling involved in spot ETFs, unlike futures-based products, could further tighten supply-demand dynamics, amplifying price growth.

However, the crypto market remains volatile, with Solana’s 1.35% daily volatility underscoring the need for caution. The X thread also sparked varied reactions, from enthusiastic support to skepticism about Solana’s long-term value against Bitcoin. As the SEC deliberates—potentially before Q2 ends, per Polymarket polls—investors are keenly watching. Whether this is the prelude to a Solana moonshot or a fleeting hype, the coming weeks will be critical.
