The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has formally acknowledged the filing for Fidelity’s spot Solana (SOL) Exchange-Traded Fund (ETF).
This marks a key development in the financial industry, as Fidelity seeks to list its Solana ETF on the Cboe BZX Exchange. The acknowledgment comes after Fidelity submitted a proposed rule change, paving the way for the potential approval of the product.
Fidelity’s Spot Solana ETF Proposal
The SEC’s acknowledgment follows Fidelity’s filing to list and trade shares of the Fidelity Solana Fund under the Cboe BZX Exchange. The proposed rule change, initially submitted on March 25, was later amended on April 1, 2025, to clarify certain points and add additional details.
The amended proposal aims to list the Solana ETF under BZX Rule, which pertains to commodity-based trust shares. According to the Cboe BZX Exchange, Fidelity plans to register the shares with the SEC through a registration statement on Form S-1.
Fidelity’s experience with crypto ETFs, having launched the Fidelity Wise Origin Bitcoin Fund (FBTC) and the Fidelity Ethereum Fund (FETH), has prepared it for this new initiative. FBTC has drawn substantial interest, accumulating nearly $17 billion in assets, while FETH currently manages around $975 million.

Chainlink (LINK) has been showing mixed technical signals recently, with some indicators turning bearish while others suggest a potential upside ahead. With its price up 11% in the last seven days, Chainlink was on its path to surpass Pi Network in market cap, but this could be delayed for now.
With LINK almost not moving in the last 24 hours, its market cap is currently $10.3 billion, and Pi Network is around $12.7 billion. The upcoming days will be crucial as several technical indicators reach critical inflection points that could determine whether LINK continues its rally or faces a correction.
Chainlink DMI Shows Sellers Took Control
According to Chainlink’s DMI chart, its ADX (Average Directional Index) has decreased from 26 yesterday to 20.46 today. This decline indicates weakening trend strength regardless of direction.
ADX is a component of the Directional Movement Index (DMI) that quantifies trend strength on a scale of 0-100, without indicating direction. Generally, readings above 25 suggest a strong trend, 20-25 indicate a developing trend, and below 20 reflect a weak or absent trend.
Chainlink’s ADX moving from above 25 to just above 20 signals that the previous strong trend is losing momentum and shifting toward a more neutral or ranging market.
The Positive Directional Indicator (+DI) has fallen significantly from 33.3 to 20.1, while the Negative Directional Indicator (-DI) has increased from 14.2 to 21. This crossover, with -DI now exceeding +DI, suggests a potential shift from bullish to bearish momentum.
Combined with the weakening ADX, this technical picture points to a likely bearish reversal or continuation pattern forming for LINK’s price. Traders might anticipate further downside pressure in the near term, though they should monitor for stabilization or reversal signals as the trend weakens.
LINK BBTrend Is Now Positive After Staying Negative For Several Days
LINK’s BBTrend has now turned positive, reaching 3.69 after remaining in negative territory since March 4. A significantly negative reading of -20 was recorded on February 28.
The BBTrend (Bollinger Bands Trend) indicator is a momentum oscillator that measures the relationship between price and Bollinger Bands to identify trend strength and direction. It calculates how price is moving relative to the Bollinger Bands, which themselves represent standard deviations from a moving average.
When BBTrend is positive, it suggests prices are moving above the middle band and potentially toward the upper band, indicating bullish momentum.
Conversely, negative readings suggest bearish pressure with prices moving below the middle band toward the lower band. The recent shift to a positive 3.69 BBTrend value for LINK could signal emerging bullish momentum after a period of downward pressure.
This reversal, coming after an extended negative period that bottomed at -20, might indicate a meaningful change in market sentiment.
However, traders should confirm this signal with other indicators, as the relatively modest positive reading of 3.69 suggests the bullish momentum is still developing rather than strongly established.
Will Chainlink Go Back To $20 In March?
LINK EMA (Exponential Moving Average) lines are currently trending downward, potentially forming a death cross in the near future.
If this bearish pattern materializes and Chainlink price breaks below the critical support level at $15.79, we could see further downside movement.
In this scenario, LINK might decline to test psychological and technical support levels at $14 and potentially even $13.45, representing significant drops from current prices.
Conversely, the recent positive shift in BBTrend suggests growing buying pressure may be building. If this bullish momentum continues to strengthen, LINK could challenge the immediate resistance at $17.64.
A decisive break above this level would open the path to test higher resistance zones at $19.79 and, subsequently, $22.31. In a strongly bullish scenario where upward momentum accelerates, Chainlink could potentially reach $26.4, which would mark its first time trading above $25 in over a month.
This technical setup presents a clear inflection point for LINK, with convincing breaks of either the support at $15.79 or resistance at $17.64, likely determining the next significant price movement.
PancakeSwap’s CAKE token is the market’s top performer today, surging 21% in the past 24 hours. At press time, the altcoin trades at $2.56.
This rally comes as CAKE records its highest daily spot inflow in a month amid strong demand and renewed investor interest in the token.
CAKE Rockets Higher with $3.37 Million Inflows—Is More Upside Ahead?
CAKE’s price rally is primarily driven by the sharp increase in trading activity on the PancakeSwap decentralized exchange (DEX). Over the past few days, the platform has seen a significant uptick in daily trading volume, outperforming Ethereum’s Uniswap and Solana’s Raydium.
The trend has triggered a surge in demand for the DEX’s native token, CAKE, causing its value to soar by double digits. The uptick in buying pressure is reflected by the token’s spot inflows, currently at $3.37 million, its single-day highest figure in the past month.
When an asset records spot inflows, the number of tokens purchased and moved into spot markets has increased, indicating rising demand. CAKE’s high spot inflows suggest that investors are actively accumulating the asset. If this buying pressure continues, it can drive further price appreciation.
This is a bullish signal, especially as it is accompanied by positive market sentiment, as shown by the token’s funding rate, which is 0.0021% as of this writing.
The funding rate is a periodic fee exchanged between long and short traders in perpetual futures contracts to keep the contract price aligned with the spot market. A positive funding rate means long traders are paying short traders, indicating strong demand and bullish market sentiment for CAKE.
With rising inflows and growing demand, CAKE’s price performance suggests that traders are positioning for further upside. If demand continues at this pace, the token could extend its gains, drawing even more liquidity into PancakeSwap’s ecosystem.
CAKE’s rally has pushed it significantly above its 20-day exponential moving average (EMA) which now forms dynamic support below its price at $1.93.
This moving average measures an asset’s average price over the past 20 trading days. It gives more weight to recent price data, making it more responsive to price movements than a simple moving average.
When an asset’s price climbs above the 20-day EMA, it signals bullish momentum, suggesting that buyers are in control and the asset may continue its upward trend.
If this trend persists, CAKE could extend its uptrend to $2.90.
On the other hand, a resurgence in profit-taking activity could prevent this from happening. If CAKE demand stalls and it sheds its recent gains, its value could plunge to $2.41. If that support level fails to hold, the token’s price could drop to $2.01.
