this translates into forecasts of $275 at end-2025 (from the current level of $175) and $500 by end-2029

Kendrick's report said solana is expected to underperform ether over the next two to three years, with the ether/solana ratio rising to 17 by the end of 2027. The report noted the token trades cheap relative to its application revenue and that memecoin activity on Solana appears past its peak, while solana should dominate future high-volume, low-fee sectors such as financial and consumer apps.
