Solana Steals Ethereum’s Spotlight 💸 – What’s Next? 😱

by

Key takeaways (because who has time to read?)

Why did Solana overtake Ethereum in tokenized stocks?

Solana’s higher user activity and faster, cheaper transactions pushed its tokenized stock volumes above $800M, over 60% of the market. Also, Ethereum clearly forgot to charge its blockchain battery.

What’s next for Solana price?

Short-term charts show bearish pressure with a possible rebound. Or, as I call it, “the inevitable crash for dramatic effect.”

Solana [SOL] just did the unthinkable-stole Ethereum’s crown in tokenized stocks. Who saw that coming? Not me, but I’m out of the loop and sipping coffee. 🌊

The network’s trading volume shot past $800 million, flipping Ethereum [ETH] in the process! For a space where Ethereum has long been the leader, this is huge. But can Solana keep the lead, or will the latter fight back? Spoiler: Ethereum’s probably just Googling “how to reboot a blockchain.” 🤷

Solana captures majority shares in tokenized stock volumes

Tokenized stock transfer volumes hit nearly $1.3 billion, and Solana alone accounted for more than $807 million of that figure. That’s like showing up to a potluck with a 7-foot-tall lasagna and leaving with all the compliments. 🍕

This means the network processed over 60% of the total market, outpacing all other chains combined. Gnosis [GNO] followed with $307 million, while Ethereum trailed at just $127 million. Avalanche [AVAX], Arbitrum [ARB], and Polygon [MATIC] barely registered in comparison. Congrats, guys, you’re the “supporting actors” of crypto now. 🎭

Pulling ahead (because slow is so last season)

The on-chain data shows why Solana has managed to edge out Ethereum in tokenized stock volumes. By late September, Solana had surpassed 2.5 million daily active addresses, significantly ahead of Ethereum’s 747,000. That’s like comparing a crowded subway to a Zen garden. 🚇🧘

Network growth also favored Solana, which added nearly 1.3 million new addresses, outpacing Ethereum’s smaller expansion. While both blockchains maintained steady development activity, Solana’s stronger user engagement appears to be the key differentiator. Or, as I like to call it, “the difference between a party and a Zoom meeting.” 🎉💻

Short-term pressure (because calm seas never made a crypto billionaire)

Despite Solana’s dominance in tokenized stock activity, its price action has turned bearish in the short term. SOL dropped to $192 at press time, sliding below the mid-Bollinger Band and testing support near $193. The RSI also hovered around 35, a sign of oversold conditions after a sharp sell-off. This could mean that traders are booking profits following Solana’s big run earlier in the month. Or, as I prefer to think, “the market is just taking a breather to plot world domination.” 🌍

While the network’s fundamentals remain strong, the chart shows that price sentiment has cooled. This leaves room for a potential rebound if buying interest returns near the lower Bollinger Band. Or, as I call it, “the calm before the next crypto drama episode.” 🎬
