Bitcoin $BTC is a decentralized asset, Ethereum $ETH is a decentralized experiment, Solana $SOL is a decentralized company

ETH has had several historical surges: ICO, DeFi, NFT, none of which were planned by Vitalik and the foundation, but rather came from grassroots innovation

SOL has had several historical surges: DeFi, NFT, Meme, the first two learned from Ethereum, and the last one received support from core ecological positions like Jupiter, and Toly also enjoys retweeting meme-related posts

Additionally, the Solana Foundation is deeply involved in core projects, with Toly, Raj, and Lilyliu appearing as advisors in multiple projects, while the Ethereum ecosystem does not seem to operate this way

Of course, what we've discussed above are facts, not a comparison of superiority. In this round, applications with good user experiences are indeed more on Solana

My own takeaway is that each ecosystem has its own genes, and you shouldn't expect B to behave like A

If you care about Ethereum, you should delve deeper into the community and developers; if you care about Solana, you should focus more on the directions promoted by the foundation

Conflict of interest: holding both ETH and Sol, and the positions have fallen to the same level 😅
