Neuner Declares Solana and Ethereum Winners of Layer 1 War

Financial markets are abuzz with news of a major development in the world of cryptocurrency. CNBC's Ran Neuner has declared that the 'Layer 1 War' is over, and two clear winners have emerged: Solana and Ethereum.

In an interview with Cryptocurrency personality Scott Melker, Neuner revealed that the competition among base-layer blockchains (L1s) for dominance has been won by Solana in terms of speed, users, and crypto activity. On the other hand, Ethereum stands out as a notable winner due to its real-world assets, institutions, and onboarding capabilities.

Neuner stated that Layer 1s offer no upside except for these two platforms, asserting that the next phase of blockchain evolution has begun. He believes that killer applications will now take over, driving mass adoption of blockchain technology by generating massive user bases, network effects, and sustainable revenue.
