Here’s two Ethereum alternatives poised to make investors millionaires in 2023 after a poor performance in 2022 – Report

• Ethereum Layer-1 competitors – Solana (SOL) and Avalanche (AVAX) – are once again on investors’ radar in 2023.
• The two players have undertaken some key projects and hit new milestones which makes analysts believe that they could outpace Ethereum in the long run.

After a brutal and very harsh crypto winter last year in 2022, the crypto market has witnessed some resurgence this year in 2023. Altcoins in particular have been performing very well with several of them clocking 50-70% gains just in the first two months of the year.

Currently, of all the altcoins, Ethereum has been at the center of focus concerning The Merge event in September 2022 as well as the upcoming Shaghai hardfork. However, the two Layer-1 Ethereum competitors that could be on the radar of investors this year are Solana (SOL) and Avalanche (AVAX).

During the crypto bull run in 2021, both Solana and Avalanche gained popularity in the market as “Ethereum killers”. However, both these altcoins tanked big time last year turning out to be the worst-performing digital assets in the market.

Solana faced a brutal correction, especially after the collapse of the crypto exchange FTX. The bankrupt crypto exchange had huge reserves of Solana (SOL) which it sold in the open market to protect its native crypto FTT token.

Avalanche (AVAX) too has faced a similar fate and corrected more than 90% from its all-time high level over the last year. But an analyst at Motley Fool believes that these two cryptocurrencies could outpace Ethereum in the coming years.

Solana

In comparison to Ethereum, Solana claims itself to be a much faster and cheaper blockchain network. The Solana blockchain is capable of handling 50,000 transactions per second which are at par with some of the world’s largest payments networks such as VISA.

Despite facing a brutal correction of the SOL cryptocurrency, Solana launched two new strategic initiatives in 2022 – Solana Pay and Solana Mobile – and plans to integrate them further into the platform’s evolving Web3 strategy. Ahead this year in 2023, Solana plans the integration with Helium (HNT), a decentralized mobile network for the Internet of Things.

One area where the Solana blockchain continues to attract players from Ethereum is non-fungible tokens (NFTs). Solana is currently the number 2 player in the NFT space and its quickly gaining ground in the blockchain gaming and the decentralized finance (DeFi) market.

Avalanche

During the 2021 bull run, Avalanche (AVAX) gained massive popularity due to its incredibly fast processing speeds, low fees, and more throughout capacity than Ethereum. due to its attractive speed and pricing mechanism, Avalanche too has gained popularity in the DeFi space.

Although the AVAX price was on a downhill slope in 2022, Avalanche attained some key milestones last year. avalanche managed to tokenize a massive multi-billion dollar fund from one of the biggest private equity players KKR.

Furthermore, Avalanche is making major moves in the GameFi space. Earlier this year, Avalanche got its biggest breakthrough after Amazon Web Services (AWS) announced that it will begin offering Avalanche blockchain services to government and enterprise clients.
