Another great video of in-depth data on Sol vs (A Coin). So glad I saw you on Rob's channel about a year or so ago. Liked what you were saying & decided to start watching your channel around the time Sol was at $14. I bought as much as I could afford. Been DCAing into it ever since & it's been a life changing ride! Can't thank you & ur team enough ❤

SOL is looking strong. ETH 1x/2x is looking a bit dated and no longer as distributed as it should be ... - If SOL can maintain its network, improve stability, security and distribution - it should be a clear winner. -ETH 2x may eventually scale ... damn, world class coders are rare! -SOL is still in beta??? never put all your eggs in one risky basket, though that is why we all have BTC, LTC (stable coin, 4x faster on chain than BTC) and a few others. Some day, coders, developers and accountants will get together and rule planet Earth! - They will take over from the private, central bank - owners.

Also no chain is perfect. Eth is slower yes compared to SOL but SOL works sometimes, ETH works all the time. I think both can co-exist. Let's see how the Firedancer upgrade is. If SOL works all the time after that, then ETH is in trouble. If SOL still works sometimes then ETH has its place as the most secure/reliable chain.

I like these viewpoints If it was not for its limited supply I have the same theory on Bitcoin and its fundamental use case and TPS why the only crypto I own now is SOL and my other investments are just tesla and my 401k
Appreciate your work James. However, eth has not abandoned scalability to L2s. It is just further down on the roadmap. This is where I agree with you: the world doesn’t wait around, Ethereum needs to move a lot faster than they are or else will be left behind.

I think ETH is like LYCOS search engine that was invented in 1994 when Internet was new. LYCOS was very popular until a new guy called GOOGLE was invented 4 years later. ETH was invented in 2013 when crypto was new and SOL the new guy came in 2017, 4 years later and is starting to eat ETH lunch and will completely takeover in several years time like Google did with LYCOS and all other search engines. 🙂
simply the best. Cheers James.

But the question is, can SOL really scale, and what happens if it remains permanently unstable and still not fast enough to run everything on? Firedancer, correct me if I'm wrong, is just a more efficient validator client, and so how is it going to have as dramatic an effect on performance as claimed? Is the 1 million tps the same sort of marketing hype that pumped Cardano in the last cycle, the belief that the promised land is just around the corner? Eth, on the other hand, does have to do major battle with composability... fractured liquidity is a serious problem. But the plan has been to push activity to L2s for a long time, due to a belief that L1s will never achieve enough scale. It remains to be seen whether an L1 can scale enough... we will see over the next few years.

Simply because technologies get better and cheaper over the years, people will be able to run the software with better hardware and that's how Solana will scale.
@AntoninAlarcon

I'd like to add one thing to that statement. Firedancer is not going to change everything as soon as it goes live; it'll take time. The main reason why Firedancer is a gamechanger for Solana is that adding a new client will significantly reduce the points of failure since it's very unlikely for the same issue to affect all client code. Additionally, Firedancer will require much less expensive hardware to run, which will enhance the decentralization of the chain.
Too good Mr James !

So despite being on the train I still feel more let down. Been trying to reflect on this. At the end of the day I should be happy with what I do have.

Competitors faster, implementations: rapid interactive development cycles can be very risky, bugs are frequently introduced, think Mozilla project which has twice gone to a ultra rapid rollout of updates, causing havoc for 3rd party developers and missing it on testing, this has already happened to Solans, you want to trust that? ETHvhas correctly taken a cautious rollout path and rightly so, one major slip up and a bug could wreck the project, as has already happened to SOL just everyone is forgetting it
