Bold Prediction: Solana Flipping Ethereum In my latest podcast, Maxwell McKendry, CPA shared his insights on the possibility of Solana surpassing Ethereum in the next few years, if not this cycle. This bold prediction is rooted in several key factors: ⚫️ Integrated System: Solana’s all-in-one platform offers what many consumers desire: fast execution, fast finality, and low transaction fees. ⚫️ Layer Twos Impact: While Ethereum’s layer twos are siphoning liquidity and market cap, Solana’s seamless integration provides a compelling alternative. As someone who found Ethereum’s high transaction fees and slow settlement times challenging, Max sees great potential in Solana’s ability to attract broader use cases and adoption.
