Analyst Mary Emerald has penciled in a <a href=\"https:\/\/coinmarketcap.com\/community\/post\/366495891\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">move up to $256<\/a>, a gain of about 60% from today\u2019s prices.<\/p>\n<p>On its own, SOL has already jumped more than 50% from earlier lows this year. Prices still face pressure, though. The MACD histogram is negative and hasn\u2019t shown a clear turn upward.<\/p>\n<p>That hints that bears have some edge until momentum shifts. Keeping an eye on trading volume around $189 will be key. A strong break and close above that level could open the door to higher targets.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tradingview.com\/x\/NaErTcsy\/\" width=\"1835\" height=\"909\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>New Mobile Phone Starts Shipping In 50 Countries<\/h2>\n<p>Meanwhile, with the long-awaited <a href=\"https:\/\/solanamobile.com\/seeker\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Seeker phone<\/a> now available in over 50 countries, traders are growing more optimistic about Solana\u2019s price as they eye a possible breakout.<\/p>\n<p>The handset combines Web3 functionality with a familiar smartphone experience, using hardware-level security to keep private keys and seed phrases completely separate from the app layer.<\/p>\n<p>This development makes Solana a more appealing platform for developers, fuels a vibrant ecosystem and expands SOL\u2019s role as a utility token.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">Seekers officially start shipping today!

Over the past 30 days, SOL has recorded 16\/30 green days with 7.66% volatility. Current sentiment reads as neutral and the Fear &amp; Greed Index sits at 50.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" class=\"wp-image-799746 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/a_32e60d.png?resize=395%2C562\" alt=\"\" width=\"395\" height=\"562\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Looking at these metrics, a move toward $173 by early September seems likely if SOL can hold above $166.
