Solana: 181000 SOL Stolen From Staking Whale

Solana staking whale address HwtbQBNnLERakdUDuCCLWmUs2oETLFQZeHUWeQdPads was drained of 181000 SOL valued at $14.28 million after unstaking seven hours ago, with the funds rapidly converted via cross-chain tools into 7918 ETH now sitting in four Ethereum wallets.

Price action on the 4h chart shows SOL at $78.27 inside the Bollinger Bands with upper resistance at $81.68 and lower support at $75.74, while the EMA50 at $78.74 caps upside and the EMA200 at $76.12 offers deeper floor; RSI at 45.44 stays neutral yet the MACD golden cross at -0.42 hints at building momentum that could test the upper band before any retracement to the 50-EMA. Traders tracking SOL price prediction models note this event adds fresh supply pressure that may accelerate moves toward the lower band if broader crypto market crash sentiment returns.
