Solana price predictions have been bolstered as a leading candidate for a proposed pilot program that would bring U.S. equities, like stocks, on-chain.
A coalition made up of the Solana Foundation, crypto asset manager Superstate, and DeFi platform Orca has submitted the 18-month pilot proposal to the SEC.
Project Open aims to deliver instant trade settlement—something traditional finance has struggled to achieve—ultimately opening the door for a regulatory framework.
While Solana’s 60% April-long surge has since plateaued, approval could reignite momentum, strengthening the altcoin’s case in the “best crypto to buy” conversation.
Solana Price Analysis: Could Tokenisation Push SOL to $1000?
No one has named specific chains, but Solana’s involvement puts it at the heart of the tokenization effort—a niche projected to grow to $19 trillion by 2033.
This could be the catalyst needed to break above the $160 resistance and advance the breakout of a bullish 4-year cup-and-handle pattern.

This 25% setup is gaining credibility as technical indicators turn bullish.
The RSI is climbing toward the neutral 50 line, showing growing buyer strength.
Most notably, the MACD is nearing a bullish golden cross — poised to flip above the signal line for the first time since the post-election rally.
Historically, this setup signals the early stages of a major trend reversal on higher time frames.
If Solana can break above the pattern’s resistance, the rally could extend to $350 — a 200% gain from current levels.
And if momentum holds, a run toward $1,000 isn’t off the table.
Solana Faces One Major Roadblock – But This New Layer-2 Could Be the Game-Changer
Speculators have been quick to rule out Solana as a candidate, questioning its ability to support the high-volume demand of global finance markets with its biggest limitation: scalability.
But that narrative could shift with the arrival of Solaxy ($SOLX), Solana’s first-ever Layer-2 scaling solution.
Solana has long lacked this capability, limiting its DeFi and cross-chain use case—until now.
By processing transactions off-chain and finalizing them on Solana, Solaxy significantly reduces congestion and lowers transaction costs, while offering seamless interoperability across both blockchains.
With over $32.5 million in its ongoing presale, investors are already rallying behind the project. When demand for Solana increases, it could be the one to reap the fresh ecosystem liquidity.
You can keep up with Solaxy on X and Telegram, or join the presale on the Solaxy website.
