Ethereum stands as the dominant player in the realm of smart contract platforms, boasting the largest base of users and developers. This widespread developer adoption fosters a robust environment that could nurture growth and innovation.
The Ethereum network recently upgraded to EIP-1559, meaning that every time someone makes a transaction, a small part of the transaction fee is destroyed or "burned". Over time, fewer Ethereum coins exist, potentially increasing the value of the remaining ones.
Ethereum’s integration of Layer 2 solutions (L2s) amplifies its capacity, potentially escalating the network’s transaction processing to 100,000 transactions per second (TPS). This enables it to accommodate a broader range of applications and higher transaction volumes.

Despite Ethereum’s significant market capitalization, it faces intensifying competition from newer networks, prioritizing faster and more cost-effective solutions.
Notably, Ethereum’s transaction fees can spike during peak times, potentially dissuading users and developers from utilizing the network for smaller transactions or applications.
Critics argue that Ethereum’s adoption of a rollup-centric Layer 2 (L2) strategy has led to a fragmented ecosystem, where assets are spread across layers and platforms, complicating the user experience. They suggest that a unified, monolithic network, such as Solana, could offer a more streamlined and user-friendly experience.
