Solana Primed for Rally: Standard Chartered Predicts $275 by December, $500 by 2029
Solana’s price could surge to $275 by year-end—nearly doubling its current value—according to a bullish forecast from Standard Chartered. The bank’s analysts see the Ethereum rival hitting $500 by the close of 2029, betting on its scalability and institutional adoption.
Why the optimism? Solana’s blistering transaction speeds and rock-bottom fees keep attracting defectors from Ethereum’s gas-guzzling network. Never mind that both chains still can’t decide whether they’re decentralized enough to matter.
Of course, in crypto, even ’institutional-grade’ predictions come with a side of hopium. Remember when banks said Bitcoin would hit $100K by 2023? Good times.
