Solana’s price is projected to hit $330 as its explosive transaction growth and cheaper fees attract users away from Ethereum. With SOL significantly outpacing ETH in terms of daily active users and efficiency, market dominance could be on the line.
Research from VanEck's MarketVector indicates that, in comparison to Ethereum, Solana excels in a number of key aspects.
Solana's User Growth Outpaces Ethereum
One example is that the former has 1,300% more daily active users and conducts 3000% more transactions than the latter, according to the research. Being "5 million percent cheaper" than its competitors, it also has better efficiency and scalability in terms of transaction fees.
Having said that, SOL's market cap is still significantly lower than Ether's at 22%. Since the former excels at those crucial areas while the latter falls short, this has ignited heated discussions. There have been growing rumors that the former would soon pose a threat to the latter's market supremacy, though, as mentioned in the paper.
Solana’s $330 Price Prediction Gains Attention
As stated in the paper, technical analysis suggests that Solana (SOL) might reach a price of $330, which would allow it to take half of Ether's market worth. It proved that transaction processing, stablecoins, and the DeFi industry will propel Solana blockchain development.
The ecosystem has also grown in the importance of decentralized exchanges (DEXs) and DEX aggregators, which facilitate low-fee transactions that increase the attractiveness of SOL to users and investors.
Low Fees and Fast Transactions Make Solana Stand Out
As it takes on Ethereum, SOL may find additional backing in the continuing expansion of DeFi.
According to Coingape, the price of SOL reached a 24-hour high of $153.55 after the report and soared 3.23% to $151.43.
Solana Sees Growing Interest Despite Institutional Hesitation
As interest in cryptocurrency has been growing again in the market, its value has increased by almost 17% in the past week. Furthermore, according to CoinGlass data, Solana Futures Open Interest increased by around 1% to $2.44 billion.
Despite the benefits of SOL being acknowledged by ordinary investors, institutional adoption has been slower, according to the most recent survey. Many investors have been hesitant to transfer substantial funds into SOL due to Ethereum's first-mover advantage and more institutional trust.
