Key Takeaways
Why are Solana’s token launches slowing down?
Daily token creation on Solana fell to 27,354, its lowest since March, signaling a cooling trend. However, Solana still leads all blockchains in token launches.
Can Solana’s fundamentals outweigh bearish Futures?
Despite a $666.7M DEX outflow and rising seller dominance in Futures markets, Solana’s $150B TVL surge and strong DeFi growth hint at long-term bullish potential.
The Solana [SOL] network has seen a significant drop in the number of new tokens created, reaching 27,354 according to recent reports — its lowest daily level since March.
While that figure reflects cooling activity in one segment of the ecosystem, the Solana network still leads the broader crypto ecosystem in daily, weekly, and monthly token launches.
The development has cemented Solana as the most active chain for project deployment.

TVL surge highlights underlying strength
However, beyond token issuance, most of Solana’s broader fundamentals still remain intact.
Per DefiLlama, Solana’s Total Value Locked (TVL) surged to around $150 billion recently, signaling sustained growth in DeFi adoption and capital inflows.
It highlighted increased investor confidence and deeper liquidity in Solana-based protocols.
That’s not all — the token’s DEX volume has also witnessed significant gains. However, the number of inflow have shrunk recently by almost $666.7 million over the last 24 hours.
The drop is majorly associated with the recent price dips and offer some cautionary signals to prospective investors and trader alike.

Solana: Short-term bearish signals
In the derivatives market, though, short-term sentiment appeared more cautious.
On-chain metrics leant bearish in the Futures space, reflecting uncertainty around whether Solana can maintain momentum after its strong run.
CryptoQuant’s Futures Taker CVD (Cumulative Volume Delta, 90-day) data showed surging sellers dominance at the current trading price.
The surging sellers dominance raises the questions of whether the aforementioned long-term bullish factor could overshadow the short-term headwinds for Solana to sustain its long-bullish structure.

The $200 question
Solana held strong just above the key $200 psychological level at press time.
However, the key question now remains: can positive long-term fundamentals — from rising TVL to network dominance in token creation — outweigh the short-term bearish sentiment?
If the buyers step in the Futures markets, Solana could consolidate above $200 or even set the stage for another potential rally.
On the daily chart, the prices seem to be stabilizing, despite the recent drop past the bullish triangle pattern.
At the same time, the altcoin’s Stochastic RSI approached an oversold region, suggesting that the current price surge could be in for a longer stay.
