Is TON The New SOL?

Crypto analysts took notice of TON’s recent performance, with many believing that a double-digit target for the summer is possible. The bullish sentiment toward TON has made several analysts, including Martinez and Daan Crypto, set their next target for the token above the $10 price range.

Altcoin Sherpa said the token remains one of the “strongest charts in crypto.” The analyst had previously stated that TON’s breakout was “just a matter of time.”

Similarly, some community members think Toncoin could be the new Solana (SOL). To some, the token’s performance resembles SOL’s in the previous cycle. Crypto trader ImNotTheWolf believes “TON will become the new SOL, in terms of gains potential.”

Another market watcher highlighted the token’s strength amid the market. WiseAnalyse suggested TON is “the only strong chart out there” because of its real-life use and adoption. As reported by NewsBTC, Toncoin recently surpassed Ethereum (ETH) in daily active addresses. This feat was attributed to its integration with Telegram and its 900 million user base.

Unchained weighed in on the matter, stating that The Open Network blockchain might be next Solana by “virtue of challenging historical smart contract leader, Ethereum.” The report highlights TON’s performance and the community’s optimism despite its gap with Solana:

While lagging behind Solana, TON’s daily active addresses have exceeded Ethereum’s figures every day except for one thus far in June. Some believe TON could close the distance in market cap with Solana.
