Market jitters rattle crypto, but Ethereum’s foundations hold firm. Sygnum’s latest analysis cuts through the noise: ETH isn’t buckling under pressure.

Why it matters: While altcoins flail, Ethereum’s network activity and institutional backing keep it standing—even as traders panic-sell the dip. (Bonus jab: Wall Street still can’t decide if it’s a ’digital gold’ or a glorified spreadsheet.)

The bottom line: Pressure tests reveal strength. Ethereum’s proving it’s more than just gas fees and memecoins—again.

Solana temple collapses before the eyes of an Ethereum warrior

In brief

  • Solana leads in Layer 1 fees but its revenues remain too concentrated on memecoins.
  • Ethereum retains the institutional advantage thanks to its stability, security, and established regulatory framework.
  • The figures confirm Ethereum ahead of Solana in DeFi, stablecoins, and tokenization.
  • Sygnum emphasizes that storytelling alone is not enough to unseat Ethereum’s throne today.

Tokenization, stablecoins, DeFi: Ethereum remains dominant in serious use cases. Projects supported by governments, banks, and traditional players turn to it. Solana can shine for a moment, but Ethereum remains anchored. Like ancient empires, it does not falter easily. Its foundations are built to last.
