Is Solana a Good Investment Right Now? It Reclaimed $100 After Losing It on the Vote.

Solana lost the $100 level after a Senate vote, then clawed it back within days while its network quietly hit new highs. Whether that reclaim holds depends on two factors most buyers are overlooking.

On September 13, 2026, Solana (CRYPTO:SOL) closed below $100 at $99.26, following a Senate vote on the crypto market structure bill. It fell again on September 15 and 16 but closed above $100 on September 17 at $101.54, and was trading near $110 as of September 18.

The coin fell for two days, then recovered over the next two. So, what does a quick reclaim of the $100 level indicate, and what can buyers expect at these prices?

What the $100 Reclaim Signals

SOL closed at $99.26 on September 13. Two days later, on September 15, it dropped to $96.82, hitting an intraday low of $95.71. However, on September 17, it bounced back to $101.54.

During the same week, Bitcoin (CRYPTO:BTC) fell 1.09%, Ethereum (CRYPTO:ETH) dropped 3.08%, and Solana fell slightly by 1.18%. The three major cryptocurrencies moved in tandem around the Senate vote, suggesting broad selling pressure rather than something specific to Solana.
