Unverified reports circulating on January 20, 2026, claim the Solana blockchain has reached a new all-time high (ATH) in its staking ratio. According to data cited by the Solana-focused X account "Solana floor" from analytics platform Token Terminal, the staking ratio has hit 70%, which would equate to approximately $60 billion worth of SOL being staked to secure the network.
However, these claims lack official confirmation. The reports note an absence of direct statements from Solana's leadership, including co-founder Anatoly Yakovenko, or verifiable on-chain data to substantiate the 70% figure. This has left the market treating the milestone as speculative.
In related Solana developments, the network has reportedly achieved another milestone with the market capitalization of real-world assets (RWAs) on its blockchain surpassing $1 billion.
The news emerges within a broader market context. A recent CoinShares report highlighted that digital asset investment products saw $2.17 billion in net inflows for the week, the strongest since October 2025. While Bitcoin funds led with $1.55 billion, Solana-focused products also attracted a notable $45.5 million in inflows.
Despite these inflows, the broader crypto market faced headwinds. Cryptocurrencies traded lower early in the week, with total market liquidations peaking at around $874 million on Monday, erasing roughly $100 billion from total market capitalization. At the time of reporting, SOL's price was down 3.45% over 24 hours to approximately $129, reflecting a cautious and volatile trading environment where altcoin movements remain heavily dependent on Bitcoin's direction.
