The Ethereum ETF is about to be approved, and the Bitcoin ETF has been listed just four months after the application was filed, becoming the most successful exchange-traded fund in history, bringing in $50 billion in net inflows to date. But for the leader and certainty, I prefer options with higher investment odds and upside: such as SOL.

Solana is newer, has an earlier adoption cycle, and has a smaller market cap of only $80 billion. Of course, I am talking about this relative to Bitcoin and Ethereum, ETH's market cap is $450 billion and Bitcoin's market cap is $1.3 trillion. Anyway, Solana's price performance this year has far exceeded the previous two. This year, SOL is up 92% (up 600% from the low), while ETH is up 64% and BTC is up 63%.

How popular is Solana?

Considering its high speed, low fees, and the fact that most of the 1,300 meme coins listed are built on Solana, it is no surprise that Solana leads the vote with 49.29% of the top 20 blockchain ecosystems (out of 58) ranked by investor interest.

Although ETH is still thriving, the gorgeous robe is already full of lice, and a set of data can support this view:

Solana's 24-hour trading volume reached $1.262 billion, exceeding Ethereum's $1.167 billion.

During the same period, Solana's 7-day NFT sales reached $99.3 million, exceeding Ethereum's $82.4 million.

Solana's daily active addresses reached 723,000, exceeding Ethereum's 374,000.

Solana also recorded 25.9 million transactions per day, while Ethereum's transaction volume was much lower, only 1.15 million.

I know most people are bullish on BTC and ETH investments, but SOL will outperform them in this cycle because it is gaining new mass network adoption. In fact, it is not right or wrong in nature. People will rush to buy these assets, but as the famous investment guru Raoul Pal said, "Remember, don't use leverage, don't FOMO, just buy the top three assets."
