Top Crypto Picks Today, May 15 – Solana, Hyperliquid, Cardano

Highlights:

• Solana holds above $88 as traders watch for a breakout near the $97 resistance zone.
• Hyperliquid jumps 17% after new ETF launches boost market demand and trading activity.
• Cardano is staying above key support as buyers push ADA toward the $0.36 resistance level.

The crypto market is up today, primarily driven by the latest regulatory developments in the United States. The U.S. Senate Banking Committee advanced the CLARITY Act to the Senate floor yesterday after a 15-9 vote in favor of the bill. The bill is expected to be merged with the Senate Agriculture Committee’s digital commodity bill for debate. The development will draw the bill closer to being a law. Despite the positive regulatory development, CryptoQuant data warns that BTC must claim the $88,144 price level for a bullish setup.

As of press time, the overall market cap is up 0.79% to $2.68 trillion. In addition, the trading volume is up 15.90% to $110.92 billion. The fear and greed index stands in the neutral zone at an index of 49. The total liquidations in the last day totaled $328.09 million, according to Coinglass data. With the positive regulatory developments in the United States, here are the top crypto picks today.

Top Crypto Picks Today

1. Solana (SOL)

SOL is currently trading at around $91.36, with a 0.24% increase in the past day. However, its trading volume is down 12.38% to $4.18 billion, while the market cap stands at $52.81 billion.

Solana is trading inside a clear range after repeated rejections near the $97.79 resistance level since February. The market has been reacting strongly whenever the price approached this upper boundary. SOL recently pushed toward the top of the range again before sellers forced a quick pullback. However, the latest rebound from lower levels shows buyers remain active.

$98 is the level that could signal a bullish breakout for Solana.

Since February, $SOL has been moving within a well-defined channel. I’ve identified the boundaries at $78 (Floor) and $98 (Ceiling), with $88 as the current pivot point.

The $88.02 level now acts as the main pivot zone controlling short-term direction. The price has repeatedly bounced from this region during the recent retracements across the range. A daily close above $97.79 could trigger stronger momentum toward the $107 and $117 regions. However, failure there could send the crypto back toward $83.09 or even $78.17.

2. Hyperliquid (HYPE)

HYPE is currently trading at around $45.55, with a 16.78% increase in the past day. Its trading volume is up 181.97% to $807 million, while the market cap stands at $11.59 billion.

HYPE is leading the market rally due to the recent launch of Hyperliquid ETFs in the market. The 21Shares Hyperliquid ETF launched on Tuesday and generated nearly $1.8 million in trading volume during its first trading session.

Meanwhile, the Bitwise Hyperliquid ETF will begin trading on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol BHYP today. The ETF will offer staking rewards to holders under its staking division, the Bitwise Onchain Solutions. The launch is expected to drive the price of the crypto higher.

Introducing the Bitwise Hyperliquid ETF $BHYP—offering 100% direct exposure to spot HYPE. And the first to use in-house staking, rather than a third-party staking provider.

Starts trading tomorrow.

3. Cardano (ADA)

ADA is currently trading at $0.2673, with a 0.95% increase in the last 24 hours. The trading volume of the coin is up by 11.5% to $539.77 million, while the market cap stands at $9.68 billion.

Cardano is trading near the $0.2674 region after spending months moving sideways above the $0.2362 support zone. The market has avoided deeper breakdowns despite the broader weakness seen since late last year.

ADA recently pushed higher from the lower range before momentum slowed near the current levels. The $0.2362 level continues attracting buyers whenever the price dips toward the lower boundary of the range. Meanwhile, RSI has also moved higher and reflects improving short-term momentum. The $0.3629 region now stands as the next major resistance zone for the crypto. A breakout there could shift momentum toward stronger recovery conditions.
