According to @MilkRoadDaily, SOL traded above 200 dollars in a post dated Aug 22, 2025, drawing attention to whether the level can hold; source: @MilkRoadDaily on X. Round-number price thresholds like 200 often act as support or resistance after a breakout, so maintaining acceptance above 200 is a bullish confirmation level to watch; source: Donaldson and Kim (1993), Journal of Financial and Quantitative Analysis. Elevated positive perpetual funding rates indicate long-side dominance and can precede pullbacks if price slips back under support, so monitoring SOL funding across major venues is critical; source: Binance Futures Funding Rate documentation. Rising open interest alongside rising price signals leverage build-up that can fuel continuation but also increases liquidation risk on reversals, making OI trend a key confirmation or warning signal; source: CME Group education on open interest.

According to @danheld, Bitcoin BTC just broke to a new all-time high (source: @danheld on X, Aug 13, 2025). The breakout lifts price above the prior record near 73.8k set in March 2024 (source: Coinbase historical BTC-USD data). In classical technical analysis, the former all-time high commonly flips to support on pullbacks, making that zone a reference for breakout retests and risk control (source: Edwards and Magee, Technical Analysis of Stock Trends). Traders also watch liquidity clustering at round numbers such as 80k and 100k for potential resistance and take-profit behavior during price discovery (source: Osler, 2003, Currency Orders and Exchange Rate Dynamics).
