The Solana network briefly exceeded Ethereum in total staked value of their native tokens, SOL and ETH, sparking discussions on its impact. With over $53.9 billion staked on Solana from 505,938 unique wallets, offering an 8.31% annual return, it briefly surpassed Ethereum's staked market cap. The rise is attributed to SOL's price performance against ETH, with the SOL/ETH ratio increasing tenfold. However, the high 8.31% return on SOL staking may divert users from DeFi activities.

Solana aims to enhance its slashing mechanism, while Ethereum explores decentralized staking options. The article questions the future of Ethereum against Bitcoin and Solana in 2025, highlighting concerns of staking centralization.
