SOL Dips 3.85% to $165 Amid MetaMask Integration, $1B Investment Prospectus, and Ecosystem Growth

Solana (SOL) is currently trading at $165.38 on Binance, reflecting a 3.85% decline over the past 24 hours, with a 24-hour opening price of $172.00 and trading volume around $3.16 billion; it remains ranked #6 by market capitalization at approximately $87.38 billion. The recent price decrease follows a period of heightened volatility and comes amid strong on-chain activity, increased developer engagement, and significant ecosystem developments such as MetaMask's Solana integration and SOL Strategies' $1 billion investment prospectus. While ongoing institutional interest and bullish analyst forecasts have supported recent gains, the latest pullback appears linked to profit-taking after a strong weekly rally, as well as broader market fluctuations despite continued growth in Solana’s memecoin sector and positive sentiment around potential ETF speculation and ecosystem expansion.
