đ #Solana The New Wall Street? #Bitwise Drops a Bombshell Prediction!
đ The Bold Claim
A top exec from Bitwise just said something wild he thinks Solana will become the go-to network for Wall Street.
Yep. The same Solana that memes and DeFi bros love could soon be where banks park their stablecoins.
đŠ Why Wall Streetâs Watching
According to Bitwiseâs Matt Hougan, the finance world doesnât fully get Bitcoin. Itâs too... mystical.
But stablecoins? Tokenized assets? Now that they understand.
He said stablecoins could reinvent payments, and tokenization could reshape stocks, bonds, and real estate. Basically, âWall Street, meet your blockchain twin.â
⥠Why Solana, Though?
Speed. Pure speed.
Hougan bragged that Solanaâs settlement times dropped from 400 microseconds to 150 microseconds lightning fast for traders who hate waiting even 2 seconds for profits.
He said when Wall Street folks look at blockchain options, Solanaâs finality and throughput make it super attractive.
đ Ethereum Still Reigns (For Now)
Of course, Ethereum still owns the stablecoin throne with $172B on-chain value.
Solanaâs $13.9B looks like pocket change next to that.
But momentum matters, and Solanaâs catching more eyes every week.
đŒ Bitwise Isnât Just Talking Theyâre Betting
Bitwise already runs a Solana ETP, and an ETF approval could be coming Oct 16.
If it gets the green light, it could be a massive gateway for institutional money to flood into $SOL
My Take
So yeah⊠Solana might go from âmeme chainâ to âWall Streetâs favorite intern.â
Not bad for a blockchain that used to crash more often than Windows XP.
