Solana Price Targets $120 as Schwab Adds SOL, ETF Inflows Rise

Bitwise's Solana ETF (BSOL) reached $1.017 billion in assets, holding 9.33 million SOL tokens. It's the first Solana ETF to hit this milestone, with a 0.56% premium to its net asset value. SOL was trading at $102.65 on Aug. 28.

Bitcoin's surge above $80,000 boosted crypto-related stocks, including miners and digital asset firms. Circle's USDC stablecoin saw a supply increase, leading Bernstein to maintain an Outperform rating and $140 price target. Strategy's financial health depends more on capital market access than Bitcoin's price, while Solana's transaction volume hit a record, driving a 40% rally in SOL.

Solana's SGP-0002 proposal passed with 67% support, doubling SOL's disinflation rate from 15% to 30%. Kraken's last-minute vote shift was decisive. The change reduces future SOL issuance by ~18.9M tokens over six years, with long-term inflation remaining at 1.5%. Two other proposals, SGP-0001 and SGP-0003, were also voted on, with the former passing and the latter failing.

Solana validators approved a proposal to double the disinflation rate of SOL emissions, with 72.7% support. Kraken's late vote shift contributed to the approval. The change accelerates Solana's path to a 1.5% terminal inflation rate, reducing staking yields and potentially making some validators unprofitable. According to the proposal, this removes about 18.9 million SOL from emissions over six years.

Solana validators passed SGP-0002, doubling the network's disinflation rate from 15% to 30%, reducing SOL issuance and hitting a 1.5% floor by 2029. The vote was close, with Kraken initially opposing before changing its stance. Validators also ratified SGP-0001 but rejected SGP-0003, which would have increased SOL burns. The changes may impact SOL's price and staking yields.

Solana's first network-wide vote narrowly passed a proposal to double disinflation, with validators linked to Kraken and Galaxy switching sides at the last minute. The proposal, SGP-0002, received 67% support, just above the two-thirds threshold. SOL token was down 1.2% over 24 hours near $106.
