Solana (SOL) has recorded a 5% gain in the last 24 hours amidst certain concerning developments in the crypto space.\u00a0<\/span>On Wednesday, the United States published<\/a> its Consumer Price Index (CPI) data for August, which shows that inflation rose from 3.2% to 3.7%, higher than the predicted outcome by analysts.<\/span><\/p>\n

In addition, the bankrupt FTX exchange obtained court approval to liquidate its crypto holdings worth $3.4 billion<\/a> as it looks to offset its debt. <\/span><\/p>\n

Normally, developments such as this are expected to induce a selling pressure on crypto assets.\u00a0 <\/a><\/span>However, the majority of the market is staying afloat with slight gains in the last few hours, while Solana has even embarked on a rally, drawing much attention from investors.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Interestingly, popular crypto analyst Micha\u00ebl van de Poppe has given possible reasons as to why the crypto market may not be moving as widely expected.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The analyst explains that most of the Solana<\/a>, which makes up the bulk of the FTX crypto holdings, with a value of $1.2 billion, is currently staked and thus cannot be liquidated.<\/span><\/p>\n

Van de Poppe states that only 7 million SOL is available to FTX for liquidation, and most of these tokens have been sold in the past week. Given these circumstances, the analyst predicts a \u201csell the rumor, buy the news\u201d scenario would likely occur.<\/span><\/p>\n
