However, the rise was short lived, with the Solana price dropping afterward. The flat moving averages and the RSI below the midpoint do not give a clear advantage either to the bulls or the bears. If the SOL price can break above the daily MA 50 at $85, it might rise to $98. Buyers will have to be able to rise above that to gain the upper hand. On the contrary, a break and close below the $76 support might favor bears. This might see Solana drop to $67 and subsequently to $50. Broader market sentiment will be watched as regards Solana's short-to-medium-term price action. The Federal Reserve continues to highlight upside inflation risks alongside softening labor conditions, which might keep the higher-for-longer rate narrative steady. #Solana #Ethereum #SOL News #Ethereum Price Prediction #Solana Price Prediction #Ethereum News
