Bitwise: 1.27M SOL Inflows Lift Validator to 5th

Bitwise Onchain Solutions validator posted a record 1.27M SOL in net staking inflows during August, the highest monthly total year to date and enough to secure fifth place among all Solana validators. SOL trades at $100.94 inside its Bollinger band with the 50-EMA at $100.84 acting as immediate support while the 200-EMA sits at $88.36. Momentum shows RSI(14) at 40.98 in neutral territory yet MACD registers a death cross at -0.1, signaling short-term pressure that could drive price toward the lower band at $100.79 before any rebound. Institutional flows into top validators like Bitwise continue to shape SOL price prediction models and broader crypto staking trends even as BTC dominance influences risk appetite across the sector.
