Claude AI predicts solana could reach $115 by end‑2026, sees chance of falling below $80
Claude, Anthropic’s AI model, forecasts that Solana (SOL) could trade around $115 by the end of 2026, with a broader range of $78 to $160. The model assigns a 20% chance of the token moving above $150 and a 25% chance of dropping below $80. As of Oct. 21, 2026 SOL is about $106, up 2% in the last 24 hours but down 9.9% for the month, having opened October at $118 and fallen to as low as $100.
Key points
- Claude AI forecasts solana could reach $115 by end‑2026, with a $78‑$160 range and 20% chance above $150.
- SOL trades around $106, down 9.9% month, below its 20‑day ($111) and 50‑day ($109) averages.
- Alpenglow upgrade targets ~150 ms finality; Claude expects price impact between –10% and +15%, most likely near zero.
The Alpenglow upgrade hit the mainnet on Oct. 21, aiming for transaction finality of roughly 150 ms, though the Solana Foundation has not confirmed full activation. SOL is trading below its 20‑day average of $111 and its 50‑day average of $109, suggesting seller dominance. The cryptocurrency’s market cap is about $62.7 billion, placing it seventh by rank, with roughly 589.5 million SOL circulating out of a total supply of 636.2 million. U.S. spot Solana ETFs hold $1.65 billion but have seen net outflows since Oct. 5, while Bitcoin is priced near $83,316, down 5.1% for 2026.
Claude expects Alpenglow’s direct price impact over the next three months to lie between –10% and +15%, most likely near zero. A 25% chance exists that SOL could surpass its $293 record high before the end of 2027, a move that would depend on a strong Bitcoin rally and renewed ETF inflows.
