The Flippening: SOL > ETH by 2026?


Solana has gained significant ground on Ethereum in terms of transaction volume and user activity. This prediction asks if SOL's total market cap will exceed ETH's market cap at any point before the end of 2026.

The Valuation Gap

The strong **'No'** vote reflects the massive gap in valuation. As of late 2025, Ethereum's market cap is typically 3-4x that of Solana. For a flip to occur, Ethereum would need to collapse or stagnate while Solana experiences a parabolic, unprecedented run. While Solana is growing, Ethereum's institutional entrenchment (ETFs, stablecoin dominance, L2 ecosystem) provides a 'moat' that makes a full market cap flip highly unlikely within the short 2026 timeframe.
