SOL slips under $72 as spot Solana ETF inflows rise and capital rotates from BTC/ETH

Solana (SOL) was trading below the $72 level amid bearish short-term momentum, according to market coverage on June 18. One report said SOL fell more than 2.5% over the prior 48 hours, while another highlighted that bearish pressure was building even as ETF-related demand continued ^{[1] [2]}.

Despite the weaker price action, multiple outlets cited continued spot Solana ETF inflows. One article stated U.S. spot Solana ETFs recorded about $115 million in net inflows in May 2026, with fund assets around $1.13 billion by the end of May (as cited by those sources). In the same day’s reporting, another article noted a three-day streak of positive net inflows and cited $1.06 million in net inflows on Wednesday ^{[3] [2]}.

ETF flow reporting also pointed to relative rotation within major crypto assets. One outlet reported net outflows for Bitcoin and Ethereum while Solana saw positive inflows on June 17, suggesting differing institutional positioning across assets in the latest available figures ^[4].

Overall, the latest coverage pairs SOL’s move below $72 with continued spot Solana ETF inflows, while also highlighting weaker ETF flow dynamics for Bitcoin and Ethereum in the same period ^{[1] [3] [4]}.
