Solana to Outshine Ethereum, According to Real Vision’s Raoul Pal

Real Vision CEO Raoul Pal believes that Solana (SOL) has a strong potential for growth compared to its competitor Ethereum (ETH).
In a recent blog post, Pal, a former executive at Goldman Sachs, discussed his observation of the Solana versus Ethereum (SOL/ETH) pair.
He pointed out that Solana has been outperforming Ethereum since breaking out from a descending channel.
Pal noted that SOL has experienced significant gains, rising over 30% in the past month and an impressive 150% year-to-date. He expects this positive trend to continue.
As of the time of writing, Solana is trading at $23.25, showing a minor decline of 5% in the last 24 hours.
In a separate strategy session, Pal expressed his optimism about the broader crypto markets, anticipating their outperformance compared to other asset classes. He attributed this trend to the global adoption of cryptocurrencies and the ongoing debasement of fiat currencies.

Pal also emphasized that the approval of a spot-based Bitcoin (BTC) exchange-traded fund (ETF) could further drive the crypto markets to new highs.
He elaborated on the underlying factors driving the crypto market, such as the adoption trend, which has seen a considerable increase in the number of wallets, reaching 421 million and is projected to reach a billion in the coming years. Additionally, he highlighted the increasing interest in tokenizing assets like bonds, leading to a financial shift toward blockchain technologies.
Pal mentioned that the introduction of ETFs will provide easier access for the general public to invest in cryptocurrencies and expects prices to rise in anticipation of this development.
