Solana Vs Ethereum: Who Will Win The Battle Of Layer 1?

Solana vs Ethereum - The battle of Layer 1 chains has been raging on since 2020, in the middle of DeFi Summer. Before the 2021 bull run, with L1 chains, Ethereum was undoubtedly the behemoth of DeFi. One of the most hyped contenders of them all is probably Solana. Despite being just a relatively new blockchain, it's attracted a horde of pitchfork-holding haters (and smart-money-following VC lovin' investors too). Let the battle begin!

Just started crypto. Please any idea on the better ways to profit more with crypto cause I heard holding isn't really profitable short term.

[TheRealBigBash]

It's one of the major points of crypto is for it to be decentralised? I can't trust centralised vc coins. Terra proves this point. It's not all about making buckets of money taking gambles. I think it's about owning money is a fair and safe way. Time will weed out the these coins

[blindingshadow]

What good is speed if your constantly going down? This is just like eos two years ago.

It's clear that everyone wants you to buy into SOL. Which means YOU are the product, not SOL.

They can't even keep SOL online. Yet they want to pour your hard-earned money into it. I own ETH, but it's not even close to my largest holding.

ETH may be slow and expensive, this prove the team behind is not promise you the sky, they had to make the right decisions.

Kadena ( KDA ) will win. First true scalable pow block chain that uses multi-chain technology called chain web. 480k TPS on 20 chains.. Zero gas fees. safest upgradable smart contact language called pact. Kadena solves the trilemma. It's fast, secure, and infinitely scalable. Check it out guys don't miss this one.

Here we go with which Layer 1 is the best below😑

[ImDriger]

Love how they added Terra and look at where they are now. xD

[samuelibehebuka]

Until the merge happens and solana moves out of beta, I will not make any observations now

[josewells]

Coca-Cola=BTC. first in market.
Pepsi cola=ETH. runner up.
EVERYONE ELSE third string.
You're trying to catch a bus that's already left the stop.

Nice vid. Pls review cfx, Conflux L1 protocol. Thanks

[vandzas]

If you can shutdown and reboot the protocol anytime you want, is it even worth it?

[kenerik]

So cardano is actually sol without the down time.
Hard fork at about 29 June. Just saying

[davidforster]

Cardano it's everything eth wish it could be. Staking, decentralised, scalable, 1000 smart contracts.

[lascosascomoson]

Necesito esta información en español o aprender inglés

[kuby]

Oh, yes, chain with off and on switch is the best.

[kyley]

Might as well said the battle between Mastercard and visa with how centralized they are.

[pikaflixproductions]

Pulse chain is a fork of ethirum. Coming out this month. It's pretty much eth2.0 but on steroids. This will take over . Launching this month everyone get your bags ready

[thoms]

I vote Cardano 💙 because it's one of the few projects that takes decentralisation seriously. Plus it's FAR more secure than either of them could hope to be, and it's scalability is going to make Solana look slow in the near future.

[JDM_]

Should be Ethereum vs. Cardano. Solana is too centralized and VC backed, could be the next Luna.
