Scaramucci Reignites the Solana vs. Ethereum Debate
Anthony Scaramucci, the founder of SkyBridge Capital, just threw some gasoline on the eternal Solana versus Ethereum debate. Speaking at Solana's Breakpoint conference, Scaramucci made a prediction that's going to give ETH maximalists heartburn: he thinks Solana (SOL) will eventually "flip" Ethereum (ETH) in market value.
His reasoning? Solana is simply expanding faster across the metrics that matter: developer activity, user growth, and throughput capacity. The network is building momentum, and Scaramucci sees that trajectory continuing.
"I think it will flip Ethereum," Scaramucci said during an interview at the event.
Before the ETH community grabs their pitchforks, Scaramucci clarified that his prediction doesn't mean Ethereum is heading for a decline. Both networks can grow together, he argues. The crypto space is big enough for multiple winners.
He also dropped what might be the best quote of the conference: he's "not chain monogamous." Translation? He's spreading his bets around. Scaramucci still supports Ethereum and Avalanche, but he believes Solana's trajectory positions it for stronger long-term gains.
The comments immediately revived the ongoing debate among digital-asset investors who are closely tracking the rivalry between Layer-1 ecosystems. Solana's ecosystem continues expanding through new trading infrastructure and developer tooling, which only adds fuel to the fire.
Ethereum Shows Resilience Despite Heavy Outflows
Ethereum is currently trading around $3,203, and the technical picture is starting to look interesting. The token recently completed a breakout and retest pattern on the daily chart that has traders paying attention.
Here's what happened: ETH broke above a downtrend line that had capped price action for nearly two months. After the breakout, it pulled back to test that same line as support, and now it's attempting to rebound from that level. This is textbook bullish price action, and it marks ETH's first clear bullish structure in weeks.
Right now, Ethereum is sitting near the 20-day EMA at $3,121, which serves as the first line of support. If ETH can bounce from this level, the upside targets come into focus: $3,309, $3,382, and $3,453. These levels align with a cluster of EMAs stacked above current price, which might create some early resistance. But if ETH can reclaim those levels, it would signal a meaningful trend improvement.
The Supertrend indicator remains red, which means the broader structure isn't fully bullish yet. However, ETH's refusal to set new lows is telling. Combined with a rising series of higher lows since the $2,900–$3,000 base, it suggests sellers are losing their grip.
Here's the really interesting part: Coinglass data shows another $116 million in net outflows today. Normally, that kind of selling pressure would push price lower. But Ethereum is holding steady despite the withdrawals, which suggests the market is absorbing distribution more easily than before. When a market can shrug off heavy selling, it's often a sign that buyers are stepping in with conviction.
Solana Holds Critical Support Despite 4% Pullback
Solana is trading near $130 and remains inside a defined downtrend, but don't write it off just yet. Price continues to hold support between $129 and $133, a range that has produced every short-term bounce over the past three weeks. As long as buyers defend this zone, the structure stays intact.
The Fibonacci levels outline the next reaction zones traders are watching. Resistance sits at $133.12 (0.236 retracement) and $140.40 (0.382), followed by the key breakout zone at $146 to $147 (0.5 level). The upper extension at $153 to $156 (0.618) aligns with major EMAs between $137 and $151, forming what looks like a heavy ceiling.
For Solana to reverse momentum, it needs to take out $140 first, then $146. A clean break through $146 would open the door to a move toward $151 to $155, where trendline resistance and EMAs converge. That's where the real test begins.
The Supertrend indicator remains red near $155.59, confirming the macro trend is still bearish. But here's the thing: early stabilization at current levels suggests seller momentum is starting to fade. If Solana can defend the $129-$133 zone and start climbing those resistance levels, the technical picture could shift quickly.
The Bottom Line
Scaramucci's prediction adds another layer to the ongoing Solana versus Ethereum narrative. Whether Solana actually flips Ethereum remains to be seen, but the competition is clearly heating up. Both networks are evolving, both have passionate communities, and both are carving out distinct niches in the crypto ecosystem.
For now, Ethereum is showing technical resilience despite heavy outflows, while Solana is holding critical support levels that could set up a reversal. The charts suggest both tokens are at interesting inflection points, which makes Scaramucci's timing for his bold prediction all the more intriguing.
