Bitcoin Past $100K as Ethereum, Solana, and Sui Lead Layer-1
The post Bitcoin Past $100K as Ethereum, Solana, and Sui Lead Layer-1 appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Ethereum, being a large market cap, offers a low-risk, slow-growth opportunity. Solana, with its medium market cap, represents a medium-risk, medium-reward option. Sui, as a newer, smaller protocol, carries higher risk but also high-growth potential. Bitcoin’s climb above $100,000 along with Trump’s upcoming inauguration about potential executive orders on cryptocurrency has investors keeping a close watch on market movements. Crypto analyst Nicholas Merten has highlighted three standout Layer-1 blockchains—Ethereum, Solana, and Sui—breaking down their price action, adoption trends, and performance metrics to gauge their impact in 2025.

Merten characterized Ethereum as a slower-moving but reliable option for cautious investors. The analyst advised investors to wait for stronger trends before getting more involved with Ethereum. Solana (SOL): All Eyes on Resistance Levels According to the analyst, Solana has shown strong performance compared to Ethereum, maintaining a neutral price action with Bitcoin since 2021.

In November, Solana hit a peak of $80 million in daily fees, and even during slower periods, it maintains strong daily revenue. This growth has led to Solana outpacing Ethereum in terms of price action. Merten said that if Solana can break certain resistance levels, it could further strengthen its position as a leading blockchain. SUI: Exciting Yet Risky Investment Sui, a fresh player in the blockchain space, has been making headlines, but it’s still in the early stages. While its technology looks promising,…
