This Institutional Investor Thinks Ethereum Will Outperform Solana During the Next 12 Months. Could It Happen?
Ethereum has major catalysts on the way, but Solana could achieve even bigger accomplishments first.
Overview
When Standard Chartered began covering Solana (CRYPTO: SOL) in May 2025, its digital assets research head Geoffrey Kendrick predicted that the coin would lag behind Ethereum (CRYPTO: ETH), with one Ethereum coin buying 17 Solana coins by 2028, up from 14. Today, one Ether buys roughly 25 SOL.
In other words, that call hit it out of the park. The bank still expects Ethereum to outperform Solana, due to the expectation that Solana will struggle to scale up during the next year or so. That's a position the bank has held since mid-2025 and reaffirmed most recently at a conference in July. Is the prediction going to come true once again?
