Fidelity Outlines Why Ethereum Has an Edge Over Solana
Ethereum (ETH) and Solana (SOL) have been competing for the top spot for quite some years. In a report by Fidelity, the financial institution highlighted that SOL’s revenue and TVL are growing at a higher rate than ETH’s. Despite its positive outlook for SOL, the financial institution gives the edge to ETH for its strong fundamentals.
The report states, “We think fundamentals are most important for long-term investors. With that said, Ethereum has strong developer activity, total value locked (TVL), and stablecoin supply. Comparatively, Solana’s revenue and TVL are improving at a faster rate than Ethereum’s and seem to have captured significant community mind share this past year.“

Despite its bullish outlook, the financial institution has pointed out SOL’s reliance on short-term trends, unlike Ethereum (ETH). Memecoin projects are one of the hottest things on the SOL network. Memecoins often garner short-term gains and don’t drive much investor sentiment. Fidelity notes how the memecoin market only booms during bull cycles and fades out under bearish conditions.
Fidelity states, “Short-term price trends often revolve around narratives, and Solana may be the more notable contender in this regard throughout 2025 given the planned upgrades for both networks.“

Its robust fundamentals make it a more stable project than Solana (SOL).
