Solana Gaining Ground On Ethereum: These Key Metrics Show Colossal Growth
In recent months, Solana (SOL) has emerged as a formidable competitor to Ethereum (ETH), consistently outpacing its larger rival in various key metrics. Analysts from The Motley Fool have highlighted that while Solana is sprinting ahead, Ethereum seems to be trotting along in comparison. Ethereum’s Market Lead May Be At Risk A particularly telling metric in this competition is the total value locked (TVL) within each ecosystem. TVL serves as an indicator of the capital deposited in a blockchain’s decentralized applications (dApps) and smart contracts. A higher total value locked often signifies greater value within the ecosystem, reflecting growing user engagement and investment. Over the past year, Solana has seen its total value locked soar by approximately 198%, reaching around $38.5 billion.

However, the growth rate of Solana’s ecosystem outpaces that of Ethereum, signaling a shift in user activity and interest. Despite Ethereum’s substantial lead in TVL, particularly in the stablecoin sector where it hosts around $161.1 billion compared to Solana’s $12.9 billion, the rapid growth of Solana’s ecosystem raises questions about its long-term market share. The Motley Fool analysts suggest that if this trend continues, Solana could capture a significant portion of the market currently dominated by the Ethereum blockchain. Solana To Dominate The Tokenized Stock Market? One of the key factors contributing to Solana’s growth is its advantage in transaction speed and cost. As the market and interest for real-world asset (RWA) tokenization expands, Solana is said to be positioned as a preferred platform for issuing and trading tokenized stocks. This segment of the tokenization market is continuously gaining traction, and Solana has already accumulated $69.2 million in tokenized stock value within just the last three months. In contrast, Ethereum holds $274.8 million in tokenized stocks, but much of that flow occurred only recently. Related Reading: XRP Explosion Ahead?

The analysts concluded by stressing that the asset tokenization market is still in its early stages, and Solana appears well-positioned to capitalize on this opportunity. When it comes to price growth, Ethereum is in the lead, having risen by over 50% year-to-date, compared to Solana’s 33% increase in the same period. At the time of writing, the price of SOL hovers just above the $209 mark, representing a 28% gap between current valuations and its record high of $293.

Ethereum Ready For Round 2? Analyst Forecasts Early October Rally Amid $4,200 Retest
As the crypto market recovers from the end-of-September correction, Ethereum (ETH) is attempting to reclaim the crucial $4,200 area. Some analysts affirmed that the altcoin’s bounce signals that a new leg up could be coming in the next few weeks. Related Reading: XRP Price May Not See An Explosive Rally In October As Expected, Here’s Why Ethereum Reclaims $4,000 On Monday, Ethereum continued to recover from the recent market pullback, surging nearly 6% from Sunday’s Lows toward a crucial barrier. Last week, the King of Altcoins recorded a sharp drop below the $4,000 level for the first time since early August, recording an eight-week low of $3,815 on Thursday afternoon. Over the weekend, the cryptocurrency reclaimed the $4,000 barrier before surging to the crucial $4,100 mark on Sunday afternoon. This level served as a strong resistance throughout the past two years, as it represents the cycle’s previous high and a key bounce area during the Q3 rally. It also marks the lower boundary of its local $4,100-$4,800 range. Market Watcher Daan Crypto Trades noted that the weekly candle on ETH’s chart closed above this level after “a solid effort by the bulls and a late Sunday push.” He added that it remains important to hold this area on the higher timeframes to target the range highs. In the daily timeframe, the trader considers Ethereum has “not the worst look” as the recent reclaim shows a clear invalidation of the range breakdown and a potential recovery continuation. Daan also suggested that the cryptocurrency could be “taking one out of BTC’s playbook,” and be preparing for a massive new leg up following the range consolidation and deviation. Similarly, Bluntz affirmed that ETH’s wave 4 on the daily timeframe “looks like it’s over with a leg higher into ath yet to come.” However, the analyst considers that the next all-time high (ATH) breakout won’t be as “sensational” as many believe, suggesting the $5,500 area as the main target. ETH’s Next Leg Up Two Weeks Away? Multiple market watchers highlighted a potential Power of Three (Po3) setup on Ethereum’s chart, signaling that the recent pullback was part of the second stage, manipulation, and the cryptocurrency is ready for the third phase, expansion. Meanwhile, Merlijn the Trader affirmed that Ethereum is displaying a similar setup that preceded the May and July rallies. At the time, ETH broke down from its local range during a liquidity grab, sending the Relative Strength Index (RSI) indicator to oversold territory. “This is the exact setup that birthed every violent reversal. Strong hands know it. Weak hands fold,” the trader affirmed. Additionally, he noted that the cryptocurrency could be repeating the late Q2 script’s timeline. Per the post, Ethereum saw a 66-day consolidation between the May breakout and the next pump in July. During this period, the second-largest cryptocurrency saw a price fakeout below the range around the 45-day mark before breaking out 20 days later. Related Reading: Bitcoin Could Go To Zero, Hedge Fund CEO Warns Last week’s correction below the local range occurred 46 days into the accumulation period, suggesting that a new breakout and leg up could come in the first half of October. “We’re at day 51. The longer the squeeze… The harder the detonation,” Merlijn stated. Nonetheless, analyst Ted Pillows added that for more upside, ETH must recover the $4,250 area, where a strong sell wall is located, until the $4,320 level. If it fails to reclaim this area, the cryptocurrency risks retesting he $3,600-$3,800 support once again. As of this writing, Ethereum is trading at $4,172, a 3.5% increase in the daily timeframe.
