Solana, my second crypto value & choice

This briefing summarizes Valerio Rossi's analysis of August 28, 2025, at 4:02 p.m., on Solana, which he calls his “second choice” after Bitcoin. The video aims to provide an update on the cryptocurrency, highlighting its recent resurgence after a period of retracement and its future prospects.

Key Themes and Highlights
Solana as the “Ethereum Killer”:
Valerio Rossi emphasizes Solana's technological superiority over Ethereum, calling it the “Ethereum killer because it has more advanced and usable technology, especially with lower brokerage fees.” This feature makes it particularly attractive.
Price Trend and Retracement:
The video refers to a previous video from January 19 in which Solana was trading at higher prices. Subsequently, there was a “temporary retracement” that brought Solana in line with other cryptocurrencies on the market.
Current Price (August 28, 2025, 4:02 p.m.): "In the last 24 hours... it's scoring €182.5 for each Solana with a rational rise of 3.48% for now."
Previous Peaks: Solana has “also traded above €200” and is expected to “definitely reach that zone shortly.”
Historical Peak (2024): Another site mentioned, lutano, indicates a historical high of “€253 in 2024.”
Upside Potential and Market Interest:
After some hesitation, Solana “seems to be definitely on the rise.”
Interest in Solana is fueled by general interest in Bitcoin and the cryptocurrency market, which is becoming “extremely interesting not only in terms of diversification in the field of investment and management in general, but also with the emergence of new companies and a whole range of services and products related to Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies.”
Solana is described as “a very well-known and reliable network, especially among industry experts.”
Comparison with Ethereum and Bitcoin:
Ethereum: Although Ethereum has “made a significant comeback, partly because it has resolved a number of technical issues,” Solana “is performing much better than its competitor Ethereum” in terms of performance.
Bitcoin: A clear distinction is made: “Bitcoin is obviously a separate issue because it is a strategic asset and a store of value, so it has a completely different value on the market.” Solana has seen “more than double” the increase of Ethereum over the past week, while Bitcoin has remained “more or less on par.”
Attractiveness for DeFi Developers and Investors:
Solana “attracts many developers and investors in digital finance, which is the most interesting in terms of future design because it is completely anonymous.”
This anonymity is preferred by individuals who “obviously prefer privacy over perhaps a slightly more formal approach, which is that of centralized finance.”
Future Forecasts (with Caution):
Several forecasting sites are cited (eururo.com, lutano, Bay in Markets B in Crypto, Coin Geo) showing “extremely interesting” growth projections and “simply incredible percentages” on a monthly and multi-year basis (until 2029/2030).
Examples of Forecasts: Forecasts indicating a potential “50-fold increase” by 2030.
Maximum prices forecast in euros: 2025 (€253), 2026 (€279), 2027 (€306), 2028 (€337).
Warning: Rossi stresses the importance of always taking all forecasts “with extreme caution and a grain of salt” as “they may be completely disregarded.”
Positioning in the Crypto Market:
Solana is currently “number 6 in the market” in terms of capitalization.
Market Capitalization (Coin Geo - USD): $115 billion.
Current Price (Coin Geo - USD): $213.71.
Change (last 24 hours): Around 15.6% (USD) or 16% (EUR).
Conclusions by Valerio Rossi
Valerio Rossi concludes by reiterating that Solana is “undoubtedly an important asset.” He urges caution with forecasts but confirms the growth trend and interest in the cryptocurrency. It will be interesting to observe the price trend at the close of the day and the opening of the Asian markets to see if the upward trend will be confirmed.
