Solana Whale Dumps Grow: Will SOL Plunge Past $140 Support?

Key Bearish Signals:

  • Pump.fun sold another 156,425 SOL ($25.74M), total dumps exceed $640M
  • SOL down 5.63% in 24 hours to $163.07
  • Long liquidations $18.99M vs short liquidations $566.7K
  • Negative funding rate -0.0015% signals bearish sentiment

🐋 Massive Whale Selloffs Continue

Pump.fun has once again dumped a significant chunk of Solana [SOL] onto Kraken, depositing 156,425 SOL worth $25.74 million.

This brings its total deposits to 3.49 million SOL, valued at over $640 million. The scale and frequency of these transfers suggest a deliberate exit strategy.

Market Prophit data shows both crowd and smart money sentiment firmly in bearish territory. This sentiment aligns with SOL’s price action, which has dropped 5.63% in the past 24 hours, now trading around $163.07.

📉 Has Solana Lost Bullish Momentum?

Technically, SOL has broken below its ascending trendline after failing to sustain above the $179 resistance zone.

Technical Levels:

  • Breakdown: Ascending trendline
  • Rejection: $179 resistance zone
  • Downside Target: Key support $140-$145
  • Stochastic RSI: Hovering in oversold zone

This rejection from the upper supply band opens the door for a drop toward the next key support between $140 and $145. Without strong bullish triggers, the market may see further downside.

💸 Deeper Selling Pressure Ahead

CoinGlass data confirmed bearish pressure in spot markets:

  • May 30: $273.26M outflows vs $241.56M inflows
  • Net outflow: $31.7 million

This imbalance between supply and demand increases the risk of further drawdowns, especially if no new bullish catalysts emerge to offset the persistent sell-side pressure observed on-chain.

📊 Negative Funding Drags Prices Further

The OI-Weighted Funding Rate has slipped into negative territory at -0.0015% at press time.

This shift reveals growing demand for short positions and signals that market participants are increasingly hedging against downside risk. Funding flipping negative after a sustained bullish phase shows a change in sentiment within derivatives markets.

📉 Long Trader Capitulation

Liquidation data shows sharp imbalance:

  • May 30 long liquidations: $18.99 million
  • Short liquidations: only $566.7K

Loss Leaders:

  • Bybit: over $10.9 million in longs wiped out
  • Binance and OKX also showed significant losses

This lopsided data shows that leveraged bulls were caught off-guard by the rejection from $179 and the subsequent dip.

🎯 Critical Juncture

With technical breakdowns, bearish sentiment, negative funding, and aggressive sell-offs converging, SOL faces a critical juncture.

The $140–$145 support zone will now determine whether bulls can mount a defense or whether sellers will drive prices even lower. If current conditions persist, a breach below this level could accelerate downside momentum and reinforce the ongoing bearish trend.
