How good is solana? And can it run along Ethereum in long run?

[dezoel]

You can assume anything you want in the crypto world, but that doesn't mean it will be right or wrong. Solana is a great product, it is a great project and it would definitely run all of ETH on its blockchain without increasing the gas fee at all, but none of this means that it would be second ranked coin in the future. However, it also doesn't mean that it will suck neither. We are talking about things in crypto that are totally incalculable because it is not something we could predict.

We have seen doge which was a joke to begin with to make people laugh become 5th biggest coin for a while this year, it has a horrible blockchain and it was a pure joke and still somehow got attention, and we are talking about amazing projects that do not even go to top 10. We also have great projects in top 10 and have horrible ones crash to zero as the common thing of course. All in all nothing about SOL can be predicted just yet, we need to wait and see.

At present Solana is a very good coin. Many have earned a lot of money from this Solana.Especially those who have done futures trading have made a lot of profit from here.At present, Bitcoin Ethereum has made Solana much more profitable than these. I myself have made a lot of profit from this Solana.

There’s also a lot of people who get trapped on top because of the hype, so not everyone makes money. Anyway, SOL can really work along with ETH, it can compete and there’s a chance that it will be next to ETH but I don’t think this project can really replace ETH since we also anticipate for ADA to beat ETH and yet they failed to do so, its better now to work together because they can’t really replace ETH.

Solana cannot allow users to set up a node easily and neither can Cardano. So far, Solana's network has had two outages. Cardano still works well with the supernodes they create.

Apparently, the reason for Solana's recent outage for hours is that it's still running on it's test version - still not an excuse though.

To be fair, in my view both Cardano and Solana still have a long way to go to even come close to the activity performed on Ethereum. They are good alternatives but still in their early stages.

You can't say Cardano is ready when the upgrade for smart contract deployment has only just been launched. The proper stress test hasn't even began yet.

There's potential as much as there's work to do.

More than thousand cryptos with their own blockchain are running around but to be I can only see Cardano and Solana to be a better version. People following crypto since 2015 might have fall or many crypto projects. What do you think about Solana? I would like to learn more from people of this forum

Yes, there are many blockchains but if you notice, a lot of them must have started on the Ethereum blockchain, however because of how outstanding the Ethereum blockchain is, they are all finding it hard to beat it till date. Starting with ADA blockchain, sometimes it gets congested and one will ask if it is capable of challenging the Ethereum blockchain, even Solana some days ago had issues with their network thus still proving that Ethereum is more effective and efficient than them.
Asking, about Solana, it has proved itself through the massive growth it experienced so far this year alone, and currently a lot of projects are building on it which will lead to more growth. Also, owing to the fact that DeFi and DEX are still coming back gradually, Solana might be the centre of attention soon because it's evident the blockchain is attracting more good projects. Nevertheless, more blockchains are stepping up such as Fantom, and the competition in the coming months will be a good one, which will be good for Solana as it is already leading in that aspect.

Can't deny that Solana is performing so well which might a thing to consider in choosing a project for investment. I can't say that it will compete with Ethereum closely or it keeps that momentum for long but at least we are seeing the new coin, a new project that is somewhat potentials and in fact, only a few of them have this kind while many were just shit.

therefore, I could say that Solana is a better market prospect but don't expect much for this, we are still not sure about its future.

[Pelana vreo]

Team are working hard to established project so that it climb the top position but it will really impossible to replace eth in near future .Lets see how it will move in the upcoming days .

Every project's doing the best efforts to be in the top list, but none's gonna be the ethereum killer or same like that because every new projects has their extra feature along with smart contract support. So blind users will always say, next ethereum killer and other stuff like this to create fomo among the newbies. So lets wait and see, how long solana or other projects will keep the hype or gonna keep the bullish momentum for long run by increasing the adoption.

I'm expecting next 1-2 years to be bullish for Solana and if devs make to stable release and several useful projects get on this ecosystem then it could run for next 5-7 years with increasing price.

With Solana's current price, I can see it Bullish.
The important thing is that Solana Network does not stop like we saw some time ago, if it continues then the price of solana will go down as we saw today.
But if you look at the development of the SOL price, the price increase is happening so fast, and I don't expect this to be manipulation by the whales

Most modern blockchains use some form of PoS. But Solana's biggest competitor is Ethereum, which still relies on PoW – though it's in the process of switching to PoS.

Yep, I think that's why these alternatives Ethereum networks starting to become popular because Ethereum users are indeed having a hard time with transaction fees, look how these PoS networks boomed recently specially Solana.

I don't think also Solana or other POS networks will flip Ethereum, what can I see is Ethereum is too far from other POS networks, so I don't think so that it makes sense to make a comparison since Ethereum still has a lot of upcoming updates.

[senyorito123]

For now I would consider both sol and ada a good option of eth although they have some limitations, recently sol network experience a serious breakdown (I know it can happen to any network) but it goes to show that the network still have some work to be done to actually be in the level of eth in near future,  they are doing good but more work needs to be put in.

They're good but with eth continuous developments like the upgrades they're doing I guess solana can't beat their worth. Though they had been showing us a great times, that won't be an assurance for us to loss support on established coins because they're more reliable compared with altcoins. Sol, needs more efforts to compete along other coins in the market and it might take several years to do it.

Solana had a DDoS attack on it's network and was down for hours. That's the weakness. If it FUDs in the future that's the reason.

ETH still on top SOL though have that good chance to work alongside with ETH andother alts such as BSC and ADA where
chain is mostly used by the developers, just need to have more positive updates to bring more end users to trust the system.
With more support coming from both developers and investors this system will continue to grow and succeed.

Actually I'm sure you know more about Solana than us. As a newcomer in Cryptocurrency, Solana deserves better because Solana develops so fast. Even though he had a problem some time ago, Solana managed to overcome it and in my opinion Solana was very worthy of being a long-term asset...

Maybe we need to give more time to SOL to grow and if their project is really good, I am sure SOL will be bigger than now and it can have a chance to compete with ethereum. SOL now is like ethereum at the start so their team needs to reach every phase of their project and that will need time doing that. If he really believes SOL can become bigger in the future, he should buy SOL from now on and hold it. Otherwise, he can buy Cardano, which has a low price compare to SOL.

Solana is now one of the most quickly programmable blockchains in the crypto world. It's also one of many coins being considered as possible successors to Ethereum's (ETH) throne.

If we look at the beginning of entering the stock market, we must admit that there has been a very surprising development. that the sol is increasing rapidly and is in great demand by investors. but can it replace ethereum in the future? it may or may not be, because it still takes more time to be able to prove it and there is still a long way to go for such an acknowledgment.

With the development that Solana is undertaking at the present, and with the continuous demand from its newly investors, who knows in the long run, Solana will beat ethereum and will take the lead. I think there is only a need for more recognition of Solana so that it will be more visible to the community. Because i know Solana is a complete package already. If ethereum will not be able to manage its own lapses, then Solana will definitely take an edge over ethereum.

Solana became one of the most talked project last couple of months and many investors have said that it is good to invest in Solana I feel bad about not grabbing the chance to make my investment in this project at the time where Solana's market price wasn't yet skyrocketing now as what we can see on the market performance of Solana is that it is doing a great development. I think the aspect of more recognition of Solana so that it could be more visible in the community was effectively activating now since everyone have had seen that this project is definitely good and maybe in the long run Solana can beat ethereum.

The current development of Binance is almost identical to the movement of Ethereum when it first appeared. Everyone was hunting for Ethereum back then because people's ability to invest in Bitcoin was a bit hindered due to the high price.
If at this time there are still people who are not convinced that Binance will be a good asset for long-term investment, then that person does not understand very well how the development of the crypto world is currently.

[maju69]

To my knowledge Solana is very good, a good ecosystem too with a high level of support from all managers which is quite consistent. The level of shipping costs is cheap, fast and efficient. I don't know how long this will last but the fact is as we already know wanting to replace Ethereum is very difficult and will not be as easy as one thinks.

[Nasuhalugu]

The name of the last coin you question, Solana, is very interesting to discuss. For me Solana is an altcoin that can be used as one of the right altcoins to invest. Maybe the function and focus of Solana is very important because it is able to accommodate large-scale transactions as I read on coinmarketcap although some time has passed, Solana is reported to have had problems with it.

Solana is a growing fast blockchain and on CARDANO blockchain will also perform well in coming days, Solana blockchain projects getting good success and many projects coming on Solana blockchain, I hope will be along with Ethereum and will rival of Ethereum.   

It's true, bro, it can't even be denied that the Solana blockchain is very good at the moment, but we need to know that the development of the Solana coin can't be separated from the ethereum chain too, so if it's to compete with ethereum I don't think it's possible, because ethereum is a very popular coin and  have a strong market influence today.
