Solana's spot ETF inflows just hit their highest monthly level of the year. At the same time, futures open interest collapsed thirty percent in two weeks.
Now the other side. Perpetual futures open interest dropped from two point seven five billion to one point nine billion dollars in roughly two weeks.
Price has held the eighty dollar zone after testing it intraday following a selloff tied to Iran-US geopolitical tensions. That level matters structurally.
Separate from price, April on-chain data released this week reveals a significant efficiency gap inside Solana's validator set. The FD Harmonic PRF scheduler earned zero point zero five five five SOL per block, roughly seventy-nine percent above the network average.
On the ecosystem side, Anodos Finance launched native Solana support this week. The platform enables gasless stablecoin transfers using XRPL bridges, targeting emerging market fintech use cases that do not require users to hold SOL for gas.
What matters most in the near term is whether spot accumulation continues while price holds eighty dollars. If institutional inflows sustain and the eighty level does not break, the divergence between spot and futures resolves in SOL's favor.
