SOL fell from a high of $123 to $123 within just a few hours, with a decrease of 15%.
What’s even more bizarre is that this public chain withstood a 6Tbps-level DDoS attack last night without any faults, and the network stability remained intact. However, a pessimistic prediction from an institution is enough to trigger a panic sell-off, with rumors suggesting that SOL may fall below $50 in 2026.
From a technical perspective, this is obviously good news; however, the market reaction is completely opposite. This reflects a harsh reality: in the crypto market, technical resilience often loses to collective psychology.
When the market is hijacked by panic, a divergence in strategies emerges. One group of investors is heavily betting in front of the so-called "key support level," currently enduring a floating loss of over 10%; while another group has already switched their mindset.
Their consensus is: preserving the principal is the greatest victory in a bear market. This is also why, during periods of extreme volatility, more and more people tend to allocate stablecoin positions - the price is always anchored 1:1, with no price risk, while also earning stable income through holding coins, automatically credited daily.
The logic behind this choice is very clear: reject the blind all-in driven by emotions and keep reserves of ammunition for waiting to buy the dip. When the panic index is off the charts, stablecoin positions can be instantly converted into spot chips to accurately seize the bloodied bottom opportunity.
At the same time, holding stablecoins earns interest daily, and even in a bear market, the account balance steadily grows—this "passive income" model is enough to cover the psychological comfort fee.
In a bull market, it's a competition of who can make money the fastest; in a bear market, it's a competition of who can lose money the slowest. When SOL fluctuates around $123, true alpha comes from staying clear-headed—neither chasing highs nor panic selling, and not being greedy, but rather using structured risk management to cope with the market's irrationality.
Do you think SOL will continue to fall to 100 dollars?

Seek stability amidst uncertainty to break through the haze.
