🔍 Why ETH and SOL?
Ethereum (ETH) remains the second-largest crypto by market cap. It powers the majority of DeFi, NFTs, and dapps—offering high utility and relatively lower risk in a volatile market .
Solana (SOL) is a fast, low-fee smart-contract platform. Analysts recently labeled it a “lower-risk, decent return” Layer-1 pick, and its RSI indicates it’s nearing oversold—a potential setup for a bounce.
