Ethereum, Solana price prediction: Will $ETH & $SOL bounce back?

The crypto market is currently under intense pressure. The year started off shaky, and the weakness continues: traders are cautious due to low liquidity and macroeconomic uncertainty. As a result, Ethereum and Solana are stuck in a correction (fall/sideways).

Current situation as of February 10, 2026

The market is volatile: volatility is high, sentiment is fragile, and any gains are quickly dampened by selling. Many major coins are still below last year's highs—a classic "risk-off" scenario (everyone is fleeing to cash or waiting for trend confirmation).

Altcoins have suffered the most. Ethereum and Solana are technically still in a bearish trend, although network activity continues (developers are working, users are active).

Ethereum (ETH) Forecast

ETH is currently trading around $2,000–$2,020 (down ~1.5–3% in the past 24 hours, down ~10–12% in the past week).

Year-over-year – down 20–25%.

Technically: the short-term trend is bearish. A bearish pin bar recently formed below $2,100, with sellers dominating. If the resistance at $2,100–$2,150 isn't broken, the next downside level is around $1,760 (there was support there previously).

Fundamentally, everything remains strong: development is ongoing, Layer-2 is actively developing (reducing load, increasing throughput). This supports long-term positivity, even if the price isn't yet reflecting it.

If buyers close the day above $2,150, the bearish trend will weaken, and a move to $2,500 can be expected. Solana (SOL) Forecast

SOL is currently around $84-86 (+/- 0-1% over the past day, but down ~18% over the past week).

Technically: a clear downtrend (lower highs and lows). Recently broke through the descending channel downwards, currently holding in the $80-90 zone as short-term support.

If support breaks, further down to $70-65 (the last strong demand zone).

To reverse the sentiment, the bulls need to regain $100 as resistance.

The outlook is cautious for now – we're waiting for real strength from buyers.

Bottom Line

ETH and SOL are struggling right now: bears are in control in the short term, rallies are weak and quickly rebound. Ethereum has a stronger foundation, and the long-term picture is intact. But until the price returns above key resistance levels ($2,150 for ETH, $100 for SOL), it's best to be patient and wait for confirmation of a reversal. For those following ETH/SOL, now is the time for patience, not aggressive buying.
